Welcome to 2020! I'm back after a bit of a forced hiatus. Christmas and my stage show were crazy busy, so I had to take a little time off. But I'm back! Unfortunately not on my favourite video from Japan, but I wanted to save the best for last.
I wrote this and filmed it in my final 24 hours in a hectic rush, so I'm actually pretty upset about how bad the script is compared to how it could be. Sorry about that. It's still an idea worth knowing, even if I presented it kind of meh.

He is but he is also warning other nations to look at themselves or IF they have a good healthcare system, not to take it for granted. healthcare is one of those issue that people DO need to fight for actively because the descission makers are mostly wealthy and will always be able to afford healthcare and the primary agents of change, young people rebelling, are... young and may often undervalue healthcare as their body will take another 10-20 years before it starts turning on them. If you're strong and healthy... helathcare usually is not an issue you will give too much thought.

Nice timing on the video, Evan; I had my first real experience with the Australian healthcare system this week. On Monday night, around 9pm, I lacerated my hand in the kitchen. My wife drove me to the hospital, so I could get some stitches. An examination, x-ray, and some antibiotics later, I'm sent home with an appointment for the hand surgeon the next morning. My 1pm on Tuesday, I am on the operating table, having the (apparently far more serious damage than I had anticipated) fixed. I'm back home at 6pm. I have no private medical insurance. This entire venture, including the physiotherapy yet to come has cost me $0. Even the parking at the hospital was free. Or the hospital meal I ate 20 minutes before being discharged. Free. Yes, in the broader sense, I do pay for it with my taxes, but that's kind of the point: me being out of the Australian workforce, not paying taxes, or working at reduced capacity due to an unfixed hand costs the Australian economy more in the long run. Our healthcare system works. When I go back to work in a few days, I'll be living proof.

That's true, it got lumped in due to poor scripting. The Okinawan sweet potato is incredible. The point I was trying to make was instead just that food tourists only ever eat it here as a dessert. It isn't a health food if you're always eating it as a dessert.

I'm speechless. NEVER have I heard such impassioned reasons for socialized health care. Evan~Thank you. 40+ yr nurse (ret), Canadian. And when I think of the "american model" of for profit medical care, I could just weep, I have wept. Imagine having to tell a mother her insurance doesn't cover a life saving medicine, test or procedure for her child. Let that sink in. "You're child may/will die if we don't do this test/procedure/surgery~but your insurance won't cover it. It's probably about $20,000. Can you pay out of pocket? No? Well then I'm sorry. Take your child home to die. Because we can't treat her/him without being paid. Do you need your parking validated?" (

@kaydeegreene6574 4 года назад
You're not exactly turned away, but then you think of the immediate need of a roof, food, etc vs. that medical treatment you should have to help you live longer. As an American who has moved to Japan partially because of the health system. It is a much better system here, even in Okinawa (poorest prefecture) Even when you can't fluently talk to the doctors. A couple of stitches, ER visit, Tetanus vaccine 2800yen. Checkup on that stitch was 280 yen. Less than $30.00! You can look up your home state costs for 3 stitches its often a few thousand. So people just dont go until absolutely necessary.

I once asked a guy how is it that they live so long. His answer was that they didn’t stress out as much. Honestly, they were some of the most chill people that I have ever met. I’m sure that that has something do with longevity and quality of life.

Thank you for addressing this issue. My family is from Okinawa but we currently live in Brazil. For the most time, we eat a typical Okinawan diet (how they eat stir-fried Goya with nothing else is still beyond me) but we still suffer all the diseases and health problems anyone else does. What we have is access to quality health care but mostly because we spend a lot of money on health insurance since the universal heath care provided by the government is pretty bad (I still think it's a good thing, and it saves a lot of lives, it's just that we got too many corrupted politicians and officials sucking money out of it).

You guys should go to Ecuador next. There a lot of stuff to do an learn. And a lot of traditions that aren't anywhere else like the devils festival, and the burning of the monigotes (may have butchered the spelling)

Very true your dialogue. It's the same everywhere in the world. Up country city dwellers are told to go to the coast & take a dip in the sea 'as it will cleanse you'. Then they go & eat a greasy burger.

As a new subscriber I just have to say, that apart from being fact based, serious and non sensationalist, this channels biggest asset is the soothing voice of Evan Hadfield, I just cant get enough of it.

I really like Goya, or bitter melon. I like it with rice vinegar and sugar. Not sure if its the same vegetables though.

6:15 Looking at the date this video was posted, I’m not so convinced you guys had the streptococcal virus… I visited Europe about the time this video was posted. I also got sick with “strept throat” from my travels. I don’t think I was properly diagnosed either.

In China we eat a ‘bitter cucumber’ that is probably Goya, and the only reason we eat it is because Grandma actually likes the taste...

They're slightly different vegetables, but very similar. From the same family, albeit slightly less bitter.

And then I had to force-quit the RU-vid app, reopen it, and search for the video again, because of that bug in the iPad app where it leaves the comment field on the screen with an endlessly spinning activity indicator, and you can’t make the video go full screen or otherwise interact with anything any more. I’ll probably have to do it again after this comment. I don’t know why I’m putting myself through this.

I went to Okinawa to see relatives. They eat all day long. My mom and I couldn't keep up. They eat heavier meals in the morning then something light in the evening. Plus walking. We walked everywhere. When Igot home I lost 15 lbs in 2 weeks.
