Welcome to another episode of Zettai Geek Dayo! This week, we talk about Halloween & how television, in part, helped to popularize the holiday in Japan. And speaking of television, we discuss & compare streaming services from a wide variety of Japanese and International companies. A bit of news from the week, including another entry into the Japanese smart speaker market, and a fork that… well, you just have to hear it to believe it. And of course, the big question is: did I get my iPhone X preorder?! Check out this week’s episode of Zettai Geek Dayo!
