In this episode, we talk about Japanese culture and how it compares to our own experiences growing up in American culture. We discuss the beauty of the society, the emphasis on kindness and respect, and how some of those same values can become a challenge depending on the situation. We also explore the ways Japan has influenced our lives through video games, anime, and manga, and why those connections run deep. It is a conversation about admiration, influence, and what we can learn from their culture that has shaped so much of what we love.
