Lets not beat around the bush here.
KB likes Bhutan for one big reason.
Folks, we’re talking giant, colorful phallic symbols painted all over the joint.
And Im not talking about subtle artwork here.
Were talking cartoonishly oversized, anatomically accurate, multi-colored penises, often with faces- sometimes covered in semen!
Youd think this was some kind of prank, but nothis is serious business in Bhutan.
Turns out, painting phallic symbols on your house is like the Bhutanese version of a good luck charm.
In Bhutan, life isn’t all about cock or money.
It’s about happiness too and they mean it.
You know how every country talks about wanting to keep people happy?
That we wanna bring back JOY and whathaveyou?
Well, Bhutan actually measures it.
They have a Gross National Happiness (GNH) index instead of the usual GDP.
GNH means theyre actually out here tracking how content their citizens are and making policies based on that.
In my opinion, people don’t kill themselves if their happiness is off the charts.
Bhutan is working on it though, probably.
But this happiness index has kept them safe from the mess of over-tourism and Western influence.
You cant just waltz into Bhutan.
No word if they cap the people who cum each year though.
Doubtful because that would lower happiness scales in a big big way.
Anyway, I didn’t know a shit ton about Bhutan before we started researching for this episode.
The place really is remarkable but I gotta say that their taste in drinks is fuckin gross.
