[MODEM NOISE] [MUSIC PLAYING] SHANE SMITH: When I was a kid,
I always want to take the Trans-Siberian because it
seemed so far away, and romantic, and freaky. I imagined Tartars and
Mongolians cooking in their cabins and trading with Turkmen
and Uyghurs for rare and delicate silks. But instead what I got was
trees, lots of trees, interspersed with rotten
industrial wastelands and peppered with some failed
Stalinist industry-- and then, of course, more
and more trees. It ended up being stultifyingly
boring. [MUSIC PLAYING] I guess this is pretty
romantic. She's nice. FEMALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: She's got
some cucumbers. FEMALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: [SPEAKING RUSSIAN] FEMALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: OK. GENNADY YUSHA: My friend. SHANE SMITH: We're
in [INAUDIBLE] in the middle of fucking
nowhere. We've been on the train
for about 12 hours. [SPEAKING RUSSIAN] [LAUGH] [SPEAKING RUSSIAN] FEMALE SPEAKER 2:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SIMON: OK. FEMALE SPEAKER 2: OK. GENNADY YUSHA:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: This is where we've
been staying for the past day and a half. It's very smelly. Now the problem with these
impossibly long distances in Siberia is that there's
nothing to do on the train but drink. But your sleeping compartment
is so fucking hot that you have to drink in
the dining car. This dining car-- this was how
the dining cars were in the '50s, and '30s, and '40s on the
Trans-Siberian Express. It's pretty great. First of all, you come
into the oasis. You've got some 3D, holographic
unicorns. We've got a rearing stallion-- quite virile. And over here you're
got vodka. This is just booze, basically. Here we've got our lady-- hello, can we look
at your thing? [SPEAKING RUSSIAN] FEMALE SPEAKER 3:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: OK. FEMALE SPEAKER 3: Hi America. SHANE SMITH: And over here it's
a very important dials. This guy here likes
to drink with us. He's a good vibe. Look who's come? We're in luck. This is our translator. He was born here in Russia. They lived in North Korea
until his mom said, this is terrible-- came back to Russia. He's been living in
Russia ever since. He's going to translate
for us. And then hopefully we'll
get it all right. Now I love the dining cars
on the Trans-Siberian. The only problem is that there's
Russians there getting drunk as well. Oh shit. Hello. MALE SPEAKER 1: Hello. SHANE SMITH: How are you? Are you OK? MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: This guy's buddy
just got arrested by the cops for smashing some shit up. They're very drunk. MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: --as
opposed to us. SIMON OSTROVSKY:

[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SIMON OSTROVSKY:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: Now we've
got crazy dude here. MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: That's
for you, here. SIMON OSTROVSKY:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] MALE SPEAKER 1: [LAUGH] [SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: It's a very good
thing I've taken a Xanax. Otherwise I'd be a bit worried
about our 17-year-old friend. Cheers. MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SIMON OSTROVSKY:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: The interim
between sort of mildly, friendly drunk and
psychopathically pull-your-eyeball-out drunk-- there's this sort of level of,
like, I hate your fucking guts, no, you're OK,
we're buddies, were buddies, were buddies-- I want to kill you. So you've got to stay somewhere
in this gauge. Do they think that you're a bit
of a pussy for not being a Russian tough guy? SIMON OSTROVSKY: They hate
me, essentially. SHANE SMITH: [LAUGH] Oh shit. We're in the tunnels. I'm tickling the birdie. SIMON OSTROVSKY: No, you can't
touch me there for a dollar. SHANE SMITH: Hello. MALE SPEAKER 1: Vice, Vice. SHANE SMITH: Vice. MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: [SPEAKING RUSSIAN] MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SIMON OSTROVSKY: He wants to
trade your ring for something. SHANE SMITH: No. MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: That's my
marriage-- my wife. SIMON OSTROVSKY:

[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SIMON OSTROVSKY: He doesn't
remember which of his hands is the left or the right. SHANE SMITH: I like
our Korean guy. As all this madness
is going on-- chaos, and everyone is drunk. And I look over at our Korean
guy just sort of serenely eating his mayonnaise. MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SIMON OSTROVSKY:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SIMON OSTROVSKY:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SIMON: People are turning
into animals. SHANE SMITH: Things
are devolving. MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: Everyone's up
in everybody's shit. And you're like,
I got an idea. We're having a few drinks. And meanwhile you've got these
fucking thugs here with their prison fucking hand tattoos. FEMALE SPEAKER 2: [LAUGH] SHANE SMITH: [LAUGH] MALE SPEAKER 2:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: Oh for
fuck's sake. MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: How about everyone
chill out, and we'll have a nice drink and look
at the countryside. MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SIMON OSTROVSKY:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: Is that
too much to ask? MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: Can we not
have some sanity? MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: Hello. MALE SPEAKER 1:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SIMON OSTROVSKY:
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN] SHANE SMITH: Here
come the cops. Let's see if the 14-year-old,
five-foot-tall cop is going to get rid of the drunk guy. Being totally wasted is so
prevalent that they have special booze police whose only
job it is to throw drunks off at the nearest station
if they get too blind drunk or murder-y. [TRAIN BRAKES] SIMON OSTROVSKY:
