In this episode of the Japan 2.0 podcast, David and Matt are joined by a restaurant manager, Chad, who was visiting Japan in hopes of expanding his restaurant business to Tokyo. Chad had questions about starting a business in Japan and asked to meet with us to discuss the businesses trends of restaurants in Japan. We agreed and recorded our conversations to share with our Japan 2.0 listeners.

P.S. We recorded this episode at the restaurant/bar chain The Lock-Up, where we experienced unimaginable terrors!!! This episode is a little disjointed thematically, but that’s what makes it an exciting good time!

Thanks again to Chad for reaching out to Japan 2.0 and for coming on the podcast. I hope that all of his business plans come to fruition and find success. 

Get ready to have good conversations and frightful scares! Enjoy!

On this episode of Japan 2.0, David and Matt are once again joined by Emily, and the three of them discuss one of their favorite video game series, Katamari Damacy. With the release of OST on vinyl and the forthcoming rerelease of the game on Nintendo Switch and PC, Katamari has been on their minds as of late. They discuss how the game portrays the weird and comical aspects of Japanese daily life, the usage of cute/ugly art, and share their favorite songs from the amazing Katamari soundtrack. Even if you aren’t a fan of video games there is a lot to love about Keita Takahashi’s the strange and wonderful world of Katamari. What are you waiting for? Wad this podcast into your lives!
