We have a reverse order show this time. I talk about train culture in Tokyo and drop some suggestions on you, then we talk about an article and expand on corporate culture and the infamous "wall of pillows" as I like to call it.

This episode went totally off the rails, so I decide to give it to you as a bonus. There is a quick update on my everyday life, some train talk, and my family coming home and shutting everything down. FYI, the audio is totally raw on this one just because I am just throwing it out there.

It's a short episode this time. We talk about the female idol group that is dominating the charts here, AKB48, and I give some insight on how they keep a strange hold on their fans. Then I talk a bit about leg room (or the lack there of) here in Japan.

We got interrupted on the first attempt, but got it right this time. I am going to tell my full unedited story of how I ended up in Japan, and finish up my three part discussion of Halloween in Japan by breaking down "the ugly" of the holiday. Enjoy!

I give some Japanese comedy show recommendations to help you laugh and study naughty Japanese at the same time, then I let you know some of the things people are not a fan every year when Halloween rolls around(part 2 of my 3 part discussion on the subject).

This time we talk about the moves Netflix and other online video streaming services are trying to make here in Japan, and I go deep into Halloween in Tokyo. This is part one of a three part discussion on the subject where I (attempt to) talk about what is good about it.

I hit you with some old school anime flavor this episode, talk about the layout of Tokyo in a bit more detail, and finally I drop some apartment hunting tips and info about the real size of average room here. Have fun listening. I had a blast making it!

In this episode I talk about a new highway pass to let you tear up the road, highway driving in and around Tokyo, and luxury vehicles. Strap in. It's going to be a wild one!

In this episode I share Tokyo Game Show memories, and tell you about a wild night drinking I had recently. I also give some tips about drinking and eating with Japanese people, plus a quick sake (rice wine) tip if you go a Japanese restaurant here. Finally, I share a couple of movie recommendations to help you understand Japan a bit more. Enjoy!

In this episode I am in the middle of a typhoon with my shirt off talking about celebrity scandals that are popping up all over Japan, drinking cheap wine, and giving you the low down on the Tokyo transportation system (plus a bunch of fun extras).
