Bewilderment & frustration: An Osaka bus adventure
It’s a lot harder than it seems to ride from the easternmost to the westernmost bus stop in Osaka, Japan.

Agree that everywhere is worth exploring. Great show as usual
Rice can really drive up your sugar..be careful
Jeremy you missed graffiti approx 5:51 on your left as you were running for bus #31. Just as you crossed intersection. 😊
I apologize for laughing as the bus drove away without you.
I was so frustrated on your behalf with the mysteries of Osaka's favourite bus game, "Where's The Stop?"
I was amazed to see public transportation in Japan is as confusing and inconsistent as it is in the US. You have great patience for exploration. I would be careful eating the food out of vending machines!
I get totally confused by the buses in Japan. I try to stick to trains which I mostly have figured out.
Fun video, frustrating for sure!! Love the Carlin clip intro!!
