Mind Duck Japan

After a long hiatus and 17 episodes of other Mind Duck Books, Anime, Games and Dreams, the original show that started it all is back along with Taka!

We get right into it and tell you how to properly treat your Japanese toilet according to a poster we found. Taka gives us an update on his horny neighbor, we look at the strangest comedians of Japan and of course delve into the thought of the day while Chan literally falls asleep in the background.

The Mind Duck Books podcast is on a separate feed from the Mind Duck Japan podcast.

The Three-Body Problem, The Dark Forest and Death's End are 3 books that have become increasingly popular. It the first part of 4, we discuss the trilogy in general, our thoughts and impressions without any spoilers. The point of this episode is to help you decide if you actually want to read this.

Throughout the next 3 weeks, you can look forward to weekly episodes for each of the three books with full on spoilers. We will deep dive into each book, sum up the story for those who haven't read it and award depression points. I'd recommend listening also as a recap before reading the next book.

Join us on this epic 4 parter and the reason why we started recording this podcast in the first place.

Episode 2 is the polar opposite of ep.1 of our anime podcast. It's Oruchuban Ebichu, the cute hamster that solves all your sexual problems. Yes you heard that right.

WARNING: Explicit sexual content discussion. If you're not comfortable with talking about real life sexual issues in detail, don't listen and get out.

Paolo and I have decided to discuss some of our favorite short stories over the next couple of episode. On this one we go deep and deeper into a debate about one of my favorite stories by Orson Scott Card - The Changed Man And The King Of Words. It was part of a collection of stories by O. S. Card called Maps in a mirror.

We have also got in touch with another book podcast that we both enjoyed called Book Retorts and did a cross-promotion. So check them out, I wasn't able to find many podcasts about books that I actually enjoyed. This one has my full support: bookretorts.com

This is the last of my experiments with podcasting - Mind Duck Dreams. Join me on the first episode where I tell a story, one of my strange dreams, over-analyze it and do some self-reflection.
