The Little Things We Miss About Home...And Will Miss About Thailand (2.25)

On this episode, we discuss the little things we love about
Bangkok, as well as the little things we miss about where we're
from. Plus Evo's recent trip to Siem Reap and the concept of
farang "embarassadors". Evo spent a week in Siem
Reap and completely loved it. Greg agrees that it's likely the
most amazing destination in SE Asia -- possibly the world -- for
those interested in archaeology. Color us impressed, ancient
Khmer people! The main topic of the show: It's the
little things. No, not a Royale with Cheese, but the little
things we miss about where we're from, now that we live in The
Land Of Smiles that is Thailand. Not to spoil everything from the
episode completely, but here's the list of things we miss:



Clothes dryers


Psychological weather cues


Easy access to drugs


Easy access to my money



But the reverse is true, and there are little things about
living in Bangkok that we're going to miss should we ever leave
The Big Mango. Again, you'll have to listen for the full details
why we're really liking:



Pain-free condo moving


Rules bent cheaply


Instant, ubiquitous transport options


Space not at a premium



If that doesn't make perfect sense, just listen. You'll get
it it. And then you'll know why we love this place. Speaking of
that...
Love, Loathe, or Leave?

First, heck yes! Let's keep the
#loveloatheorleave hashtag going! Drop one on any
social media property. We'll probably see it. Kinda like the
shirtless farang. The clueless, class-less,
totally-missing-the-point of living in Bangkok idiot who isn't
wearing a shirt. Guess where they fall on our #loveloatheorleave
scale. Listen in to find out some surprising facts about how the
law can get involved if you choose to go topless, fellas.
