so, yeah, we don't really, uh do the Century egg, type of a thing. oh my God, look at these, guys. very interesting.

They also frequently use the words "kind of", "sort of", "type of" throughout the video.

these, here, walnuts, oh, lots of walnuts, preserved stuff, fermented, looks like kimchi cabbage, kind of.

So can I sum it up like this? -"kind of", "sort of", "type of" is like "approximately ", "type of a thing","sort of a thing","kind of a thing" is similar to "something like that", the former indicates the adverb, the latter indicates the noun.
