Once when I was a teenager, around 16, I was walking down the street in Manhattan and I look up to my left and Sung is walking RIGHT past me, but as I’m staring he notices me and gives me his attention, I said i loved his movies especially his part in Fast & Furious. He was genuinely so kind and calm, also he’s tall af. I’ll remember it forever, it was like meeting Batman.

Sung Kang seems like the coolest realest celebrity ever. And he's a legit car guy!

Sung is super cool, he’s literally Han in real life. I got the chance to get a photo with him while he was in my neighborhood one time and he’s exactly who childhood me hoped he would be. Despite what he says about himself in this podcast, I was stoked with my interaction. He never portrayed himself as a happy go lucky dude and I’m sure nobody wants to be approached by random people at random times so I didn’t take anything personally and was just thankful for the opportunity!

James and the team at Donut have really created something worth watching - mashing up entertainment and cars without ruining either. Super interesting interview.

Big fan of Emelia and now a huge fan of Sung. Love the vibe he emits...super chill.

Yoooo, James is the man when he cried on an episode of up to speed and thanks us for liking and making Donut big on KZread that made me tear up because he was happy for us as a community to make Donut a thing and tbh I respect him for that

How's here in July 2024 watching Donut crumble.

Being deaf, I greatly apperciate this being in a video format. Thank you! Subscribed!

Emelia and Sung are going to hit big with this podcast.

Mental Health is so important. Thanks so much for putting a bit of yourselves out there.

I love cars and I enjoy all three of you in your native settings, but I absolutely enjoyed the humility and truth shared by all three of you. I wish I had the opportunity to just sit and share our life experiences together. Thank you for the format and for pulling this together. Much success to all of you....

Wait, _what?_ Emelia Hartford has a podcast? With _Sung Kang of _*_Fast and Furious_*_ fame_ of all people? *The car world has been truly blessed!* Hopefully _Vin Diesel_ and _Jay Leno_ will attend the show.

100% this! I came straight here from the shop reveal video and subbed instantly. This was a fantastic episode too! What a great conversation with an amazing dude.

I haven't watched Donut consistently in probably, two years, but this was so down to Earth. Makes me respect James even more because of this conversation. I'm happy to have checked this out!

Episode one! Get it Emilia! Congratulations on your success!!!

Sung is the coolest dude, so chilled

That quote about Duane Johnson melted my heart.

Sooo glad I found this! I’ve always wanted a behind the scenes James!

This is the first ever podcast I’ve ever watched. Never been a fan of the thought of watching people talk on a couch or chairs until now. I really like how you guys talk about personal stuff becuase it allows the viewers to get the real person behind the persona. I really liked how you guys all put cars on the table that represents each one of you. Will subscribe and will be looking forward to the next upload. Great Duo for podcast. Great job guys 🫶🏽

This was one of the best podcast I've seen. Thank you Sung and Emelia for having James Pumphrey on. and thanks to all three of you have discussing mental health. We need more of it!

Pure inspiration from the three of you. Congratulations on all your successes.

The first time I saw James was at a random comedy TV series called "Beef".

James changed my life when it comes to my interest in cars. He’s educated me so much and has made it fun. Up to speed gets my gears turning every time I watch it.

This is dope, James is great and so is the podcast. Thank you for creating the content.

Very nice conversation ! James is a great guy who manage to entertain me and almost made me cry on time out of nowhere with the story of its dad rushing him to the hospital. As you said, being not Efrain of being emotional is a great thing. Thanks all 🙏

this is the future! stoked and enjoying ever minute!

Great interview, I never seen James so chill haha

I actually stumbled onto donut by accident, and James and Nolan sparked my love for cars again. I was looking for info on VW Corrados a few years back and the old manuals and advertisements were so boring so I looked to see if anyone reviewed one on KZread, and up to speed on the scirocco popped up. I immediately fell in love binged all available up to speed, bumper 2 bumper and all other available content then watched everything upon release. I’m so glad James listened to the community and stopped the KZread charge to go back to their roots. It’s going great.

Two legends in one room I’m excited for this new channel you guys 🙌

Definitely one of my favorite podcasts. Awesome to see you putting it on KZread now too!

wow, i needed this, thank you

Sung Kang seems like such a great and considerate guy.

Loving this! Keep it up Sung Kang & Emelia Hartford. Really looking forward to more of this :D

This was an incredible interview. I think this channel will be amazing and I feel privileged to have been here to witness the start of something important. Keep up the great work Sung and Emelia.

I really enjoyed this. I cant wait for the next episode. I been watching all of your channels for years!

I don’t listen to podcasts from start to finish.. I would like to say Thank you, I thoroughly enjoyed it 😁👍🏼👍🏼

This is a breath of fresh air on so many levels. Thank you

@James "I want to make car videos that my aunt would watch.' As a car guy I'm grateful to old Donut for getting my non-car enthusiast girlfriend into cars. She now proudly has a Donut decal on her 4Runner, and she can explain how a turbo works.

Luv your episodes, they are such a mind relaxers❤❤❤

This is great! All of yall rock!!

James was a great guest, but so pumped we got video now! Thank you!

So awesome that this is finally on youtube ❤

This is awesome, looking forward to more 🙏🏾

Great podcast Loving this. Im hooked❤❤❤❤❤

Can't wait for the next Podcast :)

thankyou for this podcast it was needed

Great show glad to see you all on KZread!!

Much success on your new Sung Channel, focus! I will always be with you ! Much love ! ❤❤

What a great podcast. I really enjoy watching James, Donut, and their extended channel family. James always seems like a legitimately kind hearted person.

Love you’re doing this, thank you

Glad you’re on KZread!

A great conversation! Really looking forward to what is to come.

the chemistry between these three was awesome! what a debut. looking forward to more from this channel, hope the three of you can get together again.

Very cool. Enjoyed this very much.

Love Donut! Great interview. I have really enjoyed the videos I’ve watched . Keep up the great work. Love the combination of you two working together.

This was great. James is really a good person.

Thanks for uploading car stories

Chris is the reason i watch most of the car content on KZread that i do. His personality and story telling ability is perfect imo. i dont think there is better car content on the platform than his Up to Speed videos with Donut. Seeing this side of him is extremely wholesome.

LFG!!!!!! Best thing so far this year ❤️

New to listening/watching you guys, loved the thought of the pod but I also love to see the people that are doing the podcast so big props to you guys for setting cameras up because I hate just listening to a podcast

This has been the most entertaining form of James that I've seen on the platform.

I watched the 2 Broke girls episode 10 times to support More Power Baby!

What a great podcast! I am subscribing immediately.

What a great episode ! Met both of Sung & James at a car meet before , they are both very down to earth ! Love this episode , good job guys !

Cool podcast. I met Sung at Top Rank in California in 2022 and asked if he would take a picture with me. Sadly I was disappointed, Sung said he was busy with his nephew. It was still an honor and such and amazing opportunity for me to meet Sung and say hello. I completely understand his perspective with dealing with fans. Maybe next time Sung we can take a picture is our paths cross again. Gamsahabnida

Loved hearing about James’s origins 🙌🏻

This was awesome

Awesome !! Im sure we can all agree that we really like this content.

This made me smile a lot, i grew up on the big 3 F&F movies. Tokyo drift being my favorite and molding my interest and love for all things automotive. Honestly we are all lucky to all share the love for the same thing. Its a culture thats slowly fading away with time, and im glad ive seen and met a lot of cool people with some really cool cars. It makes me happy that one common interest can bring people together. I also love donut, i started watching as a teenager, they do really well of mixing media and educational content. Though yes, there are a lot of channels that go a lot more in depth about cars, donut just holds a special place in your heart. Its just fun and you can always learn from them on top of the fun you're having watching them.

This is great =) Thanks for starting this podcast =) Nice to hear stories.

Love the vibes here.

This was probably the best podcast yet

Thank you Sung and Emelia, I already follow James but I now have more respect for him after seeing this episode

How have I only just seen this, I’m going to watch all 4 immediately to catch up.

42:21 wow, I love this take. I think society would be better off if more people thought this way. Respect for James 👍.

Wow the algorithm got it right This is a gem

Love all 3 of you💪

Emelia is a total legend, I love her. I remember coming home from work having dinner while watching her working on her Subies❤

Wow, what a great podcast! To be able to see the deep feelings of you all. Keep up the great work. As far as the haters go there will always be haters, it’s so easy for people be behind the computer and hate. It’s a personality issue, I had a brother in law that had to speak down towards others. I feel it was because he had a low self esteem and in order to feel better he had to bring others down below his level.

This is the first episode I've watched and it's so deep - what?!

Awesome!

💥 ... then like a soothing breeze, a awesome new podcast was born 💯

Wait ... what... this channel is new .... ohhhhhhh snapppp this is great
