The reason why so many Americans are confused by the symbols ʌ and ə is they are just ONE vowel phoneme in General American accents.
(Note: many Americans feel they have their unstressed /ɪ/ rather than /ə/ in some of the words shown from dictionaries in the video. But that still doesn't mean a distinct /ʌ/.)
