On this week's episode of You Be Trippin', Ari Shaffir talks to Yoshi Obayashi about his trip to Kabul, Afghanistan. Going in, Yoshi thought there was a real chance he might die. Instead, he found a country full of welcoming people, wild stories, and a reality that didn't match what he'd been told. From meeting Taliban members and visiting Panjshir Valley to finding the best hash in Kabul and learning how to safely travel through one of the world's most misunderstood countries. If you've ever been curious about what the country is actually like beyond the headlines, this episode is for you.
