Customer Reviews
Very Nice
I swear to god his pronunciation makes me want to kill myself. Although it is funny to a certain extent, it becomes hard to listen to these episodes. I am Vietnamese, and it pains me every time he says “fuh” in place of the proper phở. Other than that, these videos are immaculate.
