Transcript

00:00This program contains very strong language.

00:13How are you doing, Ramesh?

00:15I'm not going to lie. It feels unusual.

00:19This is like an anxiety dream.

00:22Put this in the trailer. I want to die.

00:26I, Ramesh Ranganathan, want to die.

00:30Ramesh Ranganathan crafted his hustle tour

00:35to encapsulate the human experience.

00:40Life is just hard. It's getting harder.

00:42Asking, are we working too hard?

00:45I'm an elite sales warrior.

00:47I'm an elite sales warrior.

00:49When I'm at work, I'm a psycho.

00:51When I'm at home, I'm a psycho.

00:53Is self-improvement futile?

00:56Can you ask him, is this the worst body he's ever seen?

00:58Yes. Okay, cool.

01:01And what is true success?

01:04So you work to live, is that right?

01:06Absolutely, yeah.

01:07Oh, my God.

01:10His take on life was performed to a quarter of a million people,

01:15but he fact-checked none of it.

01:18The whole point of the series is to sort of see if I was right.

01:22It's the first time it's ever been done in the history of television.

01:24Are you sure?

01:25No.

01:27So, Ramesh will now travel the world,

01:29doing the research he should have done before the tour.

01:33Oh, Jesus.

01:34What are you doing now?

01:34Where have you been?

01:35To see if he can solve life's biggest questions.

01:38We can choose to be happy.

01:40We just need to know where to look.

01:42Whether he owes his audience a very large apology.

01:47I take a step back officially from that position.

01:49Almost couldn't get the words out.

01:51Let's go, let's go, come on.

01:53Hey, mister.

01:56Come on.

01:59You found it all now?

02:00No.

02:01Life is just hard, and it's getting harder.

02:14It's not just about living your life.

02:15You've got to smash your life, all right?

02:17There's all these podcasts coming out called

02:19How to Smash Your Day.

02:22How to fuck your day in the butt.

02:24How to open your day's mouth and shit in it.

02:27How to fuck your day to a powder.

02:31It's all this stuff, this mad shit.

02:33Let me tell you something, London, okay?

02:35If you wake up in the morning,

02:37you have a decent breakfast, all right?

02:39Go to work, have a nice lunch,

02:41come home, hang out with your family,

02:44watch a bit of TV, go to bed.

02:46You have smashed that day, okay?

02:48That day is smashed, all right?

02:51But that's not good enough for these guys.

02:53I don't know if you've heard these guys.

02:54They go, you know what you've got to do?

02:55You've got to get up at 5 a.m.

02:56Get up at 5 a.m.

02:57You know he doesn't get up at 5 a.m.

02:59Pussies who don't want it enough.

03:01Get up at 5 a.m.,

03:02write down what you want to do with that day.

03:03Don't make it easy, write down proper objectives.

03:05Become prime minister, write it down.

03:08Become an astronaut, write it down, get it down.

03:115.15, after you've made your list,

03:12go for a three-hour run.

03:14Repeat your objectives.

03:15Prime minister, astronaut, prime minister,

03:17astronaut, prime minister, astronaut.

03:18Three hours, get it done.

03:19You know who doesn't do that?

03:20Pussies who don't want it enough.

03:21Is it nice to be back on the road again?

03:35It's great to be back on the road, yeah.

03:37New show?

03:38Yeah, sort of made the promise to my family

03:40that I wouldn't be away as much.

03:41Here we are in Phoenix.

03:44So good at keeping those old promises.

03:46Different show, marriage still on the rocks.

03:52So who are we going to see?

03:54Well, it's a guy called Andy Elliott

03:56who used to be a salesman

03:57and has now morphed into a motivational speaker.

04:02He's organised like a smash-the-day event.

04:05It's like a course on how to achieve your goals,

04:09how to take something that you're striving to do

04:11and make the impossible possible,

04:14how to take your day, put your arm around its neck

04:17and wrestle it in submission.

04:20I'm a motherfucking babe!

04:22I want to see if that's true.

04:23I'm kind of quite cynical about all of that.

04:26I'm a motherfucking babe!

04:30I'm a motherfucking babe!

04:33I'm a motherfucking babe!

04:35This is...

04:36It's almost designed in a lab

04:38to make me want to cry.

04:41All right, I just want to tell you guys

04:45I really, really appreciate you all.

04:48I'm going to tell you this.

04:49A lot of people come out through events

04:51because they want to learn how to sell,

04:52make a lot of money.

04:54But what does all that matter

04:55if you can't take care of yourself?

04:56Nothing!

04:57It means absolutely zero.

04:58This workout's going to be called

05:00beating the quitting mind.

05:01If you don't run as hard as you can,

05:05he's not going to ever end the workout.

05:07What's the deal with exercise and sales?

05:13A lot of people come to our events

05:14or come to our training.

05:15They're out of shape.

05:16You can just look in their eyes.

05:17They're not confident.

05:18They don't feel good about themselves.

05:20You described most of my life there.

05:22And we're like,

05:23okay, let's get you loving yourself.

05:25When you look in the mirror,

05:26you don't have freaking man boobies

05:28and a beer belly.

05:29Then when you go talk to people,

05:30they're going to know

05:30you actually take care of yourself.

05:32And then all the skill

05:32is going to compound and make you great.

05:34How hard is this going to be?

05:36If you puke, it's totally cool.

05:38I don't think that's cool.

05:40Ready, set, let's go!

05:42Focus on the finish

05:44and keep my hair steady, breathing.

05:46Come on, come on!

05:49Let's go, let's go!

05:52Keep going, guys.

05:54Keep going.

05:55Do not stop.

05:56Push-ups!

05:57Great job, guys.

05:59Great job.

05:59Come on!

06:01I see you guys over there.

06:02Let's go!

06:03We're not slowing down.

06:05Go!

06:06Come on, come on, come on!

06:06I was surprised to see

06:08there was an exercise element to it

06:10because I thought

06:11it was just about making shit tons of money

06:13and how you go about doing that.

06:14Let's go!

06:15Come on!

06:19We're going to jump!

06:20One, two, ready, set!

06:23Genuinely, it's making me want money less.

06:25Let's go, let's go.

06:26Come on.

06:27Get in now.

06:28Let's go, guys.

06:29Burpees, burpees.

06:30Come on, burpees.

06:31Go, go, go.

06:33We're going to do scissor kick.

06:35Go, go, go.

06:36Great job, guys.

06:37Great job.

06:38That would have been much funnier

06:39if I was three or four stone heavier.

06:41Is it going to be funny,

06:42the big old chocolate whale

06:43blubbering around the car park?

06:45That's like, that is production gold, isn't it?

06:48As it is, I absolutely fucking nailed it.

06:50I think it was funny enough.

06:52No.

06:52Fair enough.

06:53I didn't see what it looked like.

06:56All right, Ramesh.

06:57Let's go upstairs.

06:58Oh, we're going up now?

07:00After the workout, Ryan came up to me and said,

07:02um, it's time to go upstairs to meet the done.

07:05He didn't say that, but that's kind of the flavor of it.

07:08Hence, you're at your own risk.

07:10People ask me, like, Ryan, how'd you get your sales up?

07:14If you'd have given me a million guesses

07:16at what was to happen next.

07:20Oh, my God.

07:22Are you being serious, Ryan?

07:23Yeah.

07:24Why are you eating dog biscuits?

07:26What are you doing?

07:28What the fuck are you doing?

07:30Oh, my God.

07:32Clearly, it's working for him.

07:33Yeah, he's got a glossy coat.

07:35He seems obedient.

07:37How was meeting Andy?

07:39Yeah, meeting Andy was quite an experience, actually.

07:41Did you guys like to work out?

07:45Yeah, it was good.

07:46I thought, um, I've seen your stuff online.

07:48I saw a video of you, like, working out at 5 a.m. or whatever.

07:51Get up, you work out, then you get on with your day,

07:53you do this, that, and the other.

07:55I think what your exact words were,

07:57every single day you empty the tank, right?

07:59That's what you said.

07:59Yeah.

08:00What does that mean?

08:01Like, why is that so important to you?

08:03The foundation of everything to me

08:05was when I started getting in shape

08:08and taking care of myself,

08:10I changed my whole life.

08:11And, dude, that sprinkles into everything else in your life.

08:14And so I went to work.

08:15I built this team.

08:16I started taking risks I normally wouldn't take

08:18because I believe in myself more.

08:20Dude, wherever I am, I'm there.

08:21When I'm at work, I'm a psycho.

08:23When I'm in the gym, I'm a psycho.

08:26When I'm at home, I'm a psycho.

08:28Oh.

08:28You're talking about being in the moment, aren't you?

08:33Yeah.

08:33Which is, I talk about this in my stand-up.

08:35People are obsessed with smashing the day.

08:37I mean, give all you got.

08:38Tomorrow is the training day.

08:40Now, by the way, I've been labeled a sales trainer.

08:42The reason why is sales and leadership will make you rich.

08:45Listen, you're a master communicator.

08:47You make them think that you're funny.

08:49Why?

08:50Because your belief that you're funny is through the roof.

08:53Well, look, if I'm being honest with you,

08:56you know, if I have to pitch myself or pitch an idea I've had,

09:00like, I just can't, I often say to my agent,

09:03it's better if we just email them

09:04and they don't talk to me directly.

09:06You're going to love tomorrow.

09:07Okay.

09:07Okay?

09:09So what I said to Andy was,

09:11I'm not very good at talking positively about myself.

09:13If you want me to tell you that I'm good at this, I can't.

09:16I like to expose holes and weaknesses in people.

09:19And honestly, in that moment, they're like, F that guy.

09:23Yeah.

09:23But when they're done, they're like,

09:25dude, that was the best thing that ever happened to me.

09:31And then he said,

09:33oh, well, that's great,

09:34because tomorrow I'm going to get up on stage.

09:36I'm going to make you feel the least comfortable you've ever felt.

09:38And then I thought, why the fuck did I tell him that?

09:40I thought, why the fuck did I tell him I didn't say anything?

09:44Oh, man.

09:46Come on, baby.

09:47That's it.

09:48How you doing, man?

09:48How's it going?

09:48How you doing?

09:49How you doing, man?

09:50How you doing, man?

09:50You all right?

09:50You're all great.

09:51How you doing?

09:51Thanks very good.

09:52Yeah, yeah.

09:53I think so.

09:53Yeah.

09:53How you doing?

09:54You all right?

09:54Ramesh, Elliot Group, welcome.

09:56Come on.

09:56Whoa

10:07Oh my god

10:08Everybody repeat after me

10:14I'm an elite sales warrior

10:16I'm an elite sales warrior

10:18I will destroy my competition

10:20I will destroy my competition

10:22I'm ready for a breakthrough

10:24I'm ready for a breakthrough

10:25I'm ready for a breakthrough!

10:27I'm ready for a breakthrough!

10:29Let's go!

10:30Let's go!

10:32Andy! Andy! Andy! Andy! Andy! Andy! Andy! Andy! Andy!

10:42I can smell Ferrari vibes in here.

10:46I can smell it when I was pulling in the parking lot in the Ferrari.

10:52So today, you guys are with me.

10:54I'm going to put a fire hose up to your mouth, and I'm just going to freaking...

10:58And you're going to be like, oh, shit.

11:01I am going to pellet you guys with so much good shit.

11:06Okay, guys? Ready?

11:08All right, guys. Let's roll. Let's start training.

11:15I want to start role-playing until lunch comes. Is that cool?

11:18Okay.

11:19Andy, I got one.

11:20We got a guy from the UK up in here.

11:22Ramesh, where you at?

11:23Will everybody give Ramesh a round of applause? Let's go!

11:27Give this guy some round of applause.

11:29He's from the United Kingdom.

11:31Come on.

11:32He's got one of those accents.

11:34Hello.

11:36What's up, Ramesh?

11:37How's your name? How you doing?

11:38Welcome to being battle-tested.

11:39This is what it looks like.

11:41So here we go.

11:41I'm the big dogs over here.

11:43I'm the one over here where if I say yes,

11:45we could do something really big together.

11:46So he pitches me on what he's got,

11:48and I say, hey, Rome, I appreciate it, man.

11:50Number one, you seem like a great guy.

11:52I mean, you're funny,

11:53but I just don't think you're high enough profile for our channel.

11:59Oh.

12:02Yeah!

12:02Hey, listen, listen.

12:04I just don't think you're big enough yet to be on our platform.

12:06Well, okay.

12:07Well, what I would say to that is

12:09it's very easy to get on board with somebody that's really high profile.

12:12What is more exciting than that

12:13is to get on somebody that's about to be really high profile.

12:16What's more exciting than that?

12:17Yeah, this is going to cost us a lot of money,

12:19and I just don't want to take those risks yet.

12:24Yeah, I get your point.

12:25Hey, hey.

12:27No, no, no, no, stop.

12:28So I came to this company

12:30because I heard this was a forward-thinking company,

12:32and I've learned that it's a superpower

12:33to be able to see around corners in business.

12:36And I can tell you what's around the corner,

12:37and it's me.

12:38It's me.

12:42Bam, bitch!

12:43Don't put me out there!

12:45Hey.

12:47Hey.

12:48Hold on.

12:48Nice.

12:49Nice.

12:50Rome.

12:51Hey.

12:51That's a very un-British way of talking about yourself.

12:54Okay.

12:54No.

12:55I'm going to hit him with one more objection.

12:58Hey, I really appreciate that.

13:00Number one, it was awesome meeting you,

13:01and we do believe in you.

13:03It's just that we can't make a decision at this time.

13:07I mean, we hear that.

13:08I hear that all the time.

13:10I mean, I...

13:10No, no, no.

13:11You want to say,

13:11I've never heard that before.

13:13Oh, shit.

13:13Okay.

13:13Let me try.

13:14Try on me again.

13:14No, no, because listen to me.

13:16You've got to pretend

13:17that you've never even heard the word no.

13:19Okay?

13:19We can make a decision right now

13:21that tomorrow,

13:22our future together is going to be insane.

13:23Or you can say,

13:24no, I don't see it,

13:25and I've got 10 other people that see it,

13:26and I don't care if I have to start

13:27with somebody smaller than you,

13:28and I mean this,

13:29I'm taking them to the top.

13:31Dude, listen, man.

13:31You're going to go pay somebody

13:32who's a big show person

13:33that they've already watched,

13:34heard everything they say,

13:35and you're going to go pay them all the money

13:36and think that that's going to bring

13:37the show to the next level?

13:38Dude, that's old and outdated.

13:40It's saturated.

13:41And by the way,

13:43hey, you didn't choose me.

13:44I chose you.

13:46That's fucking incredible.

13:47But that's it.

13:48But that's it.

13:49It's the belief, though.

13:50It's the belief.

13:52How was it?

13:53Um, there is no doubt

13:55that some people,

13:56and a lot of people,

13:57have benefited from what he does.

13:59I've got no doubts about that.

14:01It's just not for me.

14:03The whole point of this show

14:04is to examine my stand-up show

14:06and see if what I said was correct.

14:08I said I was a bit cynical

14:09about Smash the Day

14:10sort of being a bit materialistic

14:12and toxic,

14:13uh, and so it proved to be.

14:15Hey, I got something for you.

14:16Oh, okay.

14:17This is the old Andy Elliott

14:18undisputed master closer,

14:20and I want you, Ramesh,

14:22to wear this with honour

14:23and take that back to London.

14:25Uh, to be honest with you,

14:26I actually think

14:27I've got it in my life story

14:29to do sort of a seminar myself.

14:30I think I could give it a go.

14:31Well, Andy Elliott does.

14:32Yeah.

14:32I wouldn't wear,

14:33I mean, I'd wear baggier shorts,

14:35but I think I could give it a go, yeah.

14:37All right, go on.

14:39I decided to become a comedian.

14:40Did it change immediately?

14:41Fuck no.

14:42I was playing at the back of pubs

14:43to five people,

14:44people not listening to me.

14:45But did I stop doing comedy?

14:46No, I didn't.

14:47No, I didn't.

14:47I carried on every single gig.

14:49Let me get one more person in there.

14:51Let me get one more person in there.

14:52Do you know what I did last year?

14:53I played the O2.

14:55Twice.

14:57That is how you turn your life around.

15:01The other day,

15:02I went into my house

15:03after playing the O2.

15:05Lisa looked at me.

15:06Nipples got hard immediately.

15:09Do you want your wife's nipples to get hard?

15:12Or do you want to stay limp

15:13and lifeless?

15:14Because every time she looks at you,

15:15she thinks I don't want him anywhere near me.

15:19Will you carry on walking that path?

15:21Because I'll walk a different path.

15:23Welcome to the hard nipple seminar.

15:25It's actually not bad.

15:30Thanks.

15:31We're constantly being told

15:37to work as hard as we possibly can.

15:39That's what we're being drilled into us, right?

15:40Work as hard as you possibly can.

15:42This is my message to you, okay?

15:44If you are lucky enough

15:45to be doing a job you love,

15:47if you are lucky enough

15:48to be doing the job of your dreams,

15:51then sure,

15:52work as hard as you possibly can, okay?

15:53But if you're not...

15:58Work as little as you can fucking get away with.

16:07That's the true hustle.

16:09I worked in Sainsbury's for six years.

16:11I used to work on trolleys

16:12just ten minutes before my shift.

16:13I'd get a trolley.

16:14I'd throw it in the park.

16:15Then I'd say to my manager,

16:16customer reported

16:17they saw a trolley in the park.

16:20She'd get me,

16:20can you go find it?

16:21I'd go, I'll try.

16:22I'd just walk around the park

16:23five, six hours.

16:24Had a great time.

16:26I'd come back

16:26just before the end of my shift.

16:27I'd go, I found the trolley.

16:28She'd go, oh my God, Romesh.

16:29Thank you so much.

16:32Can you smell weed?

16:33No.

16:33See you later.

16:34See you later.

16:35So you think we should work less,

16:50but isn't Korea a place

16:52where everyone works loads?

16:54It is a country that works loads,

16:55but there is a possibility

16:56that that is the way to go.

16:59So I'm going to meet Lee

17:00and she's going to give me an insight

17:02into the trauma of Korean

17:04sort of working culture.

17:05Hello.

17:06Hello.

17:07Hi, Lee.

17:08Hello.

17:08Good to meet you.

17:09Romesh.

17:10Hello.

17:10Hiya.

17:10So I'm meeting her at a bar,

17:12which sounds nice,

17:13but actually this bar is somewhere

17:14where people go after work

17:16because apparently in Korea

17:18if your boss says,

17:19let's go for a beer,

17:20that is mandatory.

17:21And I know what that's like.

17:22You know, sometimes you'll be

17:23finish a day's film

17:24and you just want to get back

17:25to the hotel and get your head down

17:26and then the director goes,

17:27oh, should we go?

17:28Let's have a little debrief.

17:29And you think, well,

17:30I don't really want to,

17:31but I think it would be better

17:32for the show.

17:33So the next thing you know,

17:34you're sort of sat in the middle

17:35of Korea in a bar

17:36with somebody that actually,

17:37if you're being honest,

17:37you fucking hate,

17:39but you have to sort of

17:40go along with it

17:41to keep the show moving.

17:43I imagine.

17:44I don't, you know.

17:46We should teach him

17:46how to play some

17:47Korean drinking games.

17:48I think so.

17:49Okay, all right.

17:49Let's go.

17:50Game style.

17:52So everyone put their hands together.

17:54Pick a number.

17:5533.

17:56One, two.

17:5812, 13.

17:59Wow.

18:00One of the reasons I've come to Korea

18:27is in my stand-up show,

18:29I talk about the fact

18:30that I think people work too hard.

18:33And that's the impression

18:34I get of Korea.

18:36I think Korea is like

18:37one of those countries

18:39that really hustles.

18:40I mean, she just finished work

18:42at 2 a.m.

18:422 a.m.?

18:43Yeah.

18:44How often do you have to work

18:45till that kind of time?

18:46Every day.

18:47Every day?

18:48I usually work

18:49until 2 to 3 a.m.

18:51Are you being serious?

18:52Yeah.

18:53Lee, you are not like that,

18:55are you?

18:55No.

18:55So what happened with you?

18:57What's your story?

18:57I used to be like him.

18:58I really didn't like

18:59that I had to work

18:59too many hours.

19:01So now I have a travel agency.

19:03How stressful was your job

19:04before you did

19:05what you're doing now?

19:06I couldn't sleep.

19:08Really?

19:08I was thinking

19:09about my work

19:10all the time.

19:11Do you feel like

19:11your life is better now?

19:12Much better.

19:13Not even comparable.

19:15So there is a place

19:16that I want to show you tomorrow.

19:18Okay.

19:19And you don't do anything there.

19:21What's it called?

19:22Happiness Factory.

19:23Happiness Factory.

19:24Happiness Factory.

19:26Factory.

19:27Still sounds a bit like work.

19:29Happiness.

19:29Yeah, but happiness, yeah.

19:31I love happiness.

19:31Chan, Chan, Chan.

19:32Chan, Chan.

19:34Chan, Chan.

19:34Yeah.

19:37Oh, wow.

19:42Cheers.

19:43Chan, Chan.

19:51Are you feeling?

19:54Yeah, great.

19:58Could do with, um,

20:00sunlight turning down a smidge.

20:08Where are you off to today?

20:10Um, I'm off to exactly where I want to go,

20:12the Happiness Factory.

20:13What would your idea of a Happiness Factory be?

20:17I guess I'd walk in and Kendrick Lamar

20:19would sort of welcome you in,

20:20do an impromptu gig.

20:22Then he'd go,

20:22do you want to come through this door?

20:24My wife's there and she says,

20:25I actually do want to have sex with you.

20:27Do that, walk through another door.

20:29The kids say,

20:29we do actually think you are around enough

20:31and are a good father.

20:33And by the way,

20:33we didn't hear what's happening

20:34in that other room.

20:36And then I come out.

20:37So, this is the, um...

20:46And that's the one that I told you yesterday.

20:48The Happiness Factory.

20:49The Happiness Factory.

20:52It doesn't look, um...

20:54It doesn't look very happy.

20:56It doesn't look very happy outside.

20:58So, what does this say?

21:00It says, uh, prison inside you.

21:03Does that work?

21:04Happy prison?

21:05I think so.

21:06Okay.

21:08Annyeonghaseyo.

21:15What's happening?

21:16Take a...

21:18You need to change.

21:20Into prison clothes?

21:21Like a prison.

21:29What is happening?

21:31Do we just stay here now?

21:32Mm-hmm.

21:32You don't like here?

21:36I don't know.

21:37I think it's really cozy.

21:38It's not much what you want to do.

21:40Oh, sorry.

21:41What's he saying?

21:41Just read it.

21:43Read it?

21:44So, I've got to go back inside.

21:46Are you going back inside?

21:47Yeah, I'm going back.

21:48You're going back?

21:48Okay.

21:49All right, I'll see you later.

21:49You all right?

22:18How are you feeling?

22:20Basically, what I was told is, this is a happiness factory.

22:23It gave me the impression that there was going to be a bouncy castle and a ball pit.

22:27I've been put into this room and asked to get changed in and the room's been locked.

22:31And I've just left with sort of a running tap, a toilet and some instructions on how to meditate.

22:36I've just sort of, I guess, the idea of it is just like chilling in this room for how long is it for?

22:42I think they do it for 48 hours.

22:54Romesh.

22:58Hey.

22:59Are you doing okay?

22:59Yeah, what is the idea?

23:02You're relaxing.

23:04You don't like it?

23:05I know.

23:06I don't mind it.

23:07I mean...

23:07I think you're working a lot.

23:09Maybe you want to get away from everything.

23:12I do get it.

23:13Okay.

23:14I understand the principle.

23:16Can you try this raisin?

23:18Can I try that raisin?

23:19If you slowly eat this, it's going to help you to feel peaceful.

23:25If I slowly eat that raisin, it's going to help me to feel peaceful?

23:28Mm-hmm.

23:30Oh, I'm so sorry.

23:32Are you serious?

23:33I have another one.

23:36Okay, that's too little.

23:42I tickled it.

23:43You're too very slowly.

23:45So I'll come back when I've finished it in about an hour and a half.

23:49I'm going to give you this diary cap.

24:00What are the rules of this experiment?

24:03I'm not allowed to have my phone, but I'm allowed to have this camera.

24:05Just put it up and you can talk to it, I thought.

24:08Okay.

24:19It's very rare that you get time where you're just completely, like, cut off to the point

24:35where nothing is required of you, and that's what this does, except for, obviously, the

24:41crew at the door.

24:43I do know that I do feel like we're in a work-work, kill-yourself culture is what it feels like,

24:50but I'm not convinced this is the answer.

25:01Hello, mate.

25:01And we're going to head off because it'll get the crew home.

25:05Okay.

25:05I'm coming.

25:07What do you mean?

25:09I mean, I'm not staying here.

25:13How are you going to get the whole experience?

25:14Okay, look, can I just, can we just talk through it?

25:18You can't suddenly get all David Attenborough, Blue Planet, when it comes to actual bedtime.

25:24You've been fucking interfering with me the whole day.

25:27It's like David Attenborough going, just poking the polar bears every ten minutes.

25:31They go, now we must leave them to live as they would do in nature.

25:37Yeah, I hear what you're saying, but you've got to stay the night.

25:44Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop.

25:47Bling, bling, bling, bling, bling, bling, bling, doing, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two.

25:54Hi.

26:02Sleet well?

26:04Slept very well, yeah.

26:05I bet you did.

26:07What happened?

26:09What do you mean, what happened?

26:14hey it's been really good but I don't think we need to stay necessarily so I'm suggesting

26:25escaping the prison break I aborted the experiment because it wasn't being conducted properly

26:31I think I can do that. Turns out Lee could have left any time she wanted. So is that it then? Well I'm not planning on going back but yes that is it yeah I can't believe you just came out the thing I mean it's that was so good although when I was on the way out we were sort of having a little chat about what we'd got from it and I did sort of say to her you know it had

27:00made me reflect on the fact that I work too much and she's got something she thinks will help me

27:08because in Korea they use an AI as an alternative for work. Today I'm gonna show you the future. Nice to meet you. Hi Romesh. Welcome to future. This looks amazing. So this is artificial intelligence is it? You're gonna see another Romesh which is exactly

27:25same as you. Yeah I think it's gonna feel weird. Romesh. It's time to meet another Romesh. Okay great.

27:35That is so weird. Hello Romesh. How are you? Alright let's not get too personal here. I'm just a chat bot. But if you must know I'm as chipper as a Brit in a queue for tea.

27:54What do you do for a living? I tell jokes for a living mate. Some call it comedy. Others call it therapy for the audience.

28:06I seem to find this guy really funny Leigh. Maybe he's funnier than you. Alright Leigh. I mean do you think he could actually replace you? Look it's amazing. It's amazing technology. It doesn't sound completely natural.

28:22Does it? Doesn't it? Well mate. That's an interesting question. I guess you'd have to say how much of his mannerisms do you think match with the real guy. That's up to you to decide.

28:40Do you think you're smarter than Romesh? Who me? If you're challenging me to a knowledge duel, prepare to be mildly entertained.

28:48He does answer like the sort of thing I would say. Do you think people should work less?

28:53Well I think people should work smarter, not harder. Unless you're in showbiz, then work less and get paid more. That's the dream right?

29:01That's exactly my philosophy. It's all about that hustle without the hassle. Or as I like to call it, work smart not stress hard mentality.

29:10This is incredible. That is, that is, I'm blown away.

29:17It is genuinely an amazing piece of technology. In the UK, we are all terrified that AI is going to take over.

29:23Whereas Korea is more like, I'd quite like AI to take over. I'm working too much and I'd love it to take a bit of the heavy lifting for me.

29:30If anything, this has cemented my belief that a lot of us are working way too hard.

29:34Well, thank you so much. That was genuinely incredible. Thank you. Thank you very much. Amazing. Thank you.

29:41Rom, can we get a piece of camera with you now?

29:43Yes, you can. Go for it. Help yourself.

29:46We might as well try it out. Try it out, right?

29:49I want to get your reactions.

29:50Yeah, you can get more reactions from there.

29:52Where are you going?

29:53I'm going to go chill out. That's the whole point of this thing.

29:56Most people are not doing the job of their dreams. Most people are just trying to make enough money to get by, okay?

30:09To do the things that you want to do. And we need to be mindful of that, right?

30:12For example, if you've ever complained in a McDonald's, have a fucking look at yourself.

30:19That person doesn't want to be there. They're just working there to make ends meet.

30:24Or they're working there because I know the McDonald's don't drug test. Right? Either way.

30:29Just be understanding. Okay?

30:40Why India?

30:41Because I said something in the special.

30:45If you ever complained in a McDonald's, have a look at yourself. That person clearly doesn't want to be there.

30:51And obviously, like, I'm saying it as a joke, but I feel like that's an unfair statement to make.

30:57So, I'm meeting a guy called MSK. I'm sort of interested to see if, like, that view is going to be stress tested.

31:06Earlier in life, he was doing all those kind of jobs as a bit of a hustler, I guess.

31:10And he's since sort of made it out of that world and has now done very well for himself.

31:14So, whereabouts are you actually heading in Mumbai?

31:17We're going to Derevi. And that is kind of where people that tend to do their sort of jobs are based and work.

31:25What do you know about Derevi?

31:28What I've just told you is everything I know about Derevi.

31:31So, as I spoke, I thought, I hope there are no follow-up questions, but there were.

31:42Hey.

31:43Hi.

31:44MSK.

31:45I'm Ara.

31:46Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you.

31:47This is very nice.

31:48You like it?

31:49I love it.

31:50You need a helmet and jacket.

31:52Do I look like a Bollywood star?

31:54Yeah.

31:55Feels like I've nicked it off a Bollywood toddler.

31:57Nice.

31:58Yeah?

31:59Just bear with me on set.

32:00Yeah.

32:01They don't show this in the films, do they?

32:03They're putting their glasses on after they put the helmet on.

32:05Do you know what?

32:06I'm going to go with that.

32:07I'm a fucking hustler, baby.

32:08See you later, motherfuckers.

32:10Oh, shit.

32:19Shit.

32:21Shit.

32:22Driving here is a shit show, bro.

32:24Shit.

32:25Shit.

32:26Shit.

32:27Oh, shit.

32:31Welcome to Dharavi.

32:32Thank you so much.

32:33My area where I grew up.

32:35Come.

32:36I'll show you around.

32:37All right.

32:38So, yeah.

32:39This is the place where I grew up.

32:40Yeah.

32:41I dreamed big.

32:42And, you know, life is amazing here.

32:47Really?

32:48Did you always feel like that?

32:49Or is that something that you...

32:50Always.

32:51Always?

32:52Yeah.

32:53So then how did you make your plan happen?

32:54What were the steps?

32:55I did a lot of jobs.

32:56I started a ladies tailor, insurance agent, waiter job, then e-commerce business, filmmaking,

33:02and then vlogging.

33:03When you have nothing, then you have that courage to do great in your life.

33:08So, Dharavi is basically where you're telling me it's full of hustlers?

33:12Yes.

33:13And Achievers also.

33:14Right, right, right.

33:15I'll show you around.

33:16There's a view.

33:17Okay.

33:18From the top.

33:19So, you will get the glimpse of Dharavi from here.

33:23Yeah.

33:24Oh, wow.

33:25People see Dharavi just a slum.

33:28This is the poor part of Mumbai.

33:31Just like two square kilometers.

33:33That's it.

33:34And one million people living here.

33:35A million people?

33:36A million people living here.

33:37And thousands of business worth billion dollars.

33:40So, this economy in this two square kilometer area is a billion dollar economy.

33:45Yeah.

33:46Amazing place.

33:47It is amazing.

33:48Yeah.

33:49And everybody's got their own little hustle, right?

33:50Yeah.

33:51Everybody's hustling.

33:52Everybody's doing something.

33:53Everybody wants it to be something.

33:55You want to know about Dharavi, you have to live here.

33:58You have to feel it.

33:59I know a guy.

34:00Okay.

34:01Praful.

34:02Okay.

34:03He's a shining star.

34:04Right.

34:05He shines at night, but also in a day.

34:08Okay.

34:09Yeah.

34:1024 hours a day.

34:1124 seven shining star.

34:12Yeah.

34:19Awesome.

34:48Not getting in a fucking way.

34:49Fucking hell.

34:50Fucking hell.

34:51I mean, I'm sort of being left to my own devices and kind of getting on with it for no pay.

37:36Yeah.

37:37Yes.

37:38What do you think about Dharavi now?

37:40It's like you said, everywhere you look, somebody's doing something, right?

37:44Somebody's taking something somewhere, somebody's selling something.

37:47It's one of the busiest areas I've ever seen, I think.

37:50He never stops.

37:51He never stops.

37:52When you were here, you were struggling.

37:54You didn't have a lot of money.

37:56Now, you're rich, as in your words.

37:58Yeah.

37:59How much happier are you now?

38:01Do you feel like you were happier when you were here?

38:03Like, what's your honest opinion?

38:04Yeah, I was happy, happier here, but not satisfied.

38:10That time, I have nothing to lose.

38:12When you have nothing to lose, you can be anything you want.

38:16I think that fire is missing in me.

38:19Okay.

38:19So I was, like, planning to put all my money into a big house,

38:25and I give it to my family, and I'll be like zero, and I'll start again.

38:32You're going to give up all your money?

38:33Yeah.

38:33Give it to your family?

38:34Yeah.

38:35Start at zero?

38:35Yeah.

38:36Listen, let me tell you something.

38:37Don't do it.

38:38Do not do it, okay?

38:39If I can give you one bit of advice, do not fucking do that, man.

38:41All right?

38:42Don't take yourself to zero.

38:44Let me tell you something.

38:44I don't want the fire.

38:46Put the fucking fire out, okay?

38:48I just want to relax.

38:49Chill out.

38:50I lived my life in a lazy way, but now I want to work hard.

38:54So you're sick of chilling?

38:55Yeah.

38:56I'm tired of chilling now.

38:57Okay.

38:58Profool.

38:59Profool is here.

38:59How are you, my dear friend?

39:01Yes.

39:01Good.

39:01He's a tough boss.

39:06Thank you, man.

39:07Thank you so much.

39:08I'm looking forward to seeing you.

39:10Let's do the party now.

39:11Look, the point is, is that the idea that anybody that does those kind of jobs isn't getting

39:30something fulfilling from it is a bit elitist and horrible, and I slightly, I take a step

39:35back officially from that position.

39:38So, yeah, I was wrong.

39:41There you go.

39:42In fact, I couldn't, almost couldn't get the words out.

39:45I mean, look, when my dad first came over to the UK, he was, like, working at KFC, because

39:49he could, you know, he had qualifications, he was working at KFC to make ends meet.

39:52He'd do a really hard day's work, come home, notice paying the bills.

39:55It's just like a, not, it's a good, it's a good feeling.

39:57There is some satisfaction in that, you know, there's no, it's fulfilling.

40:00That's good, because Profool said he'd love you to stay and help back out.

40:03I think I've got what I want from it, you know, and I've got a sample of it, and it

40:08feels like almost, you know, what I don't want to do is cheapen it by doing too much,

40:11do you know what I mean?

40:12Well.

40:13See you later, Profool.

40:15Yeah.

40:20Now, you're a nice crowd, a very nice crowd, so we need to acknowledge the elephant in

40:24the room, and that is this.

40:25There are some of you that are sat there thinking, Romesh, you're a hypocrite.

40:29You're telling people to work less.

40:31You did 200 TV shows last year, and that's fair.

40:35I'll be honest with you, I'm sick of me too, okay?

40:38I walked past a mirror the other day, I tried to change the fucking channel.

40:44But this is the difference, London, right?

40:46I work a lot, I don't work hard.

40:51I've done hard jobs.

40:53I worked in KFC for six years as a vegetarian, okay?

40:57You've got no idea of my struggle.

40:59And now, they'll say to me, oh, Romesh, do you want to get paid to go on Saturday Kitchen

41:04and eat a sticky toffee pudding?

41:06Uh, yeah.

41:08Why would I say no to that?

41:10And do I deserve it?

41:11No.

41:11I know I'm lucky.

41:13Am I the best possible person to host The Weakest Link?

41:15Probably not.

41:17Am I going to keep doing it?

41:18Yeah.

41:19Yeah.

41:20Yeah.

41:21Yeah.

41:22Yeah.

41:23Yeah.

41:24Yeah.

41:25Yeah.

41:29Yeah.

41:31Hello.

41:33Hello.

41:34Come in.

41:35Got something exciting to show you.

41:43What?

41:45Sleep streaming.

41:47Sorry, I don't know.

41:48Do you know what sleeping is?

41:50Yes.

41:50Do you know what streaming is?

41:52Like, online?

41:53Yeah.

41:55Sleep streaming.

41:56Stanley is the expert in sleep streaming.

41:58he used to sleep stream uh you can make thousands of pounds from being in bed is that right stanley

42:05that's correct there you go as long as you can make it interactive and you can make it fun then

42:10people will turn up and they will like interact with the stream okay i'm doing it my mom's house

42:14because lisa doesn't want it at our house that's something i don't want to go into further details

42:18i'd like to know follow-up questions on that so i'm doing it here i'm going to go to bed when i

42:23get out of bed i'll be thousands of pounds richer and stanley obviously gets a cut because he said

42:27it all up and did most of the work so there you go that's what we're going to do and so people are

42:32paying just to clarify people pay people are paying to interact with me while i'm in bed

42:47so alexander donated two british pounds which shocked you whenever someone joins the stream

43:07they can donate a certain amount so we can change the lights to a different color we can play a loud

43:11sound and people gets a kick out of it thank you alexander

43:16electric shots

43:18fuck

43:19electric shots

43:21hey

43:23remember now you have a restricted eighth and parcel to win

43:28what the hell was that

43:38what the fuck what the hell is going on romance

43:43are you kidding

43:44fuck fuck fuck shut up go to sleep who this that was my mom i'm at my mom's house

43:51what the fuck was that hello romance it's a different joke here

44:13romance romance wake up

44:24be mom i won't stay in your heart i didn't know it's gonna be like this never again remember oh my god

44:31i had enough now get up go home

45:01how was it that was horrific so do you actually do you enjoy doing that i did for like a very

45:14long time but i had to stop it in the end because of mental health and so on because the more you do

45:18this the harder it actually gets to keep it up and it's it's very hard in the end to keep on doing

45:24it right yeah okay um it's a chat i wish i'd had before i'd gone to bed i thought in doing this i'd

45:33found the solution but sleep streaming isn't it if it seems too good to be true it probably is

45:38i mean you made a lot of money about like a like a hundred pounds i believe that was a hundred

45:42pounds about a hundred pounds i would say i know that the shark is kind of uncomfortable but if you

45:46just do that like every single night for 30 days yeah that's a good load of money genuinely i'd

45:51rather just suck someone off

46:14she can't knock the hustle

46:21she can't knock the hustle
