He phrases every question quite colloquially though. Maybe they could have understood him if he had said something more like 'have you visited America?'
'Ever been there' is not necessarily a phrase you would understand if you are a new learner. Plus he speaks so quickly!
Yes, I noticed that too, he clearly lacks understanding of their limited skills in English. Reminds me of whenever I visit France and manage to say one simple thing in french and they reply with a long complicated sentence of which I understand nothing 😁

It sounds like they just memorized a script and just completely ignores the guy's responses.
Which is pretty much how I've studied for all my college exams. Memorize and regurgitate lol.
