This is episode 8 of the FITB Interlude Podcast with Naoto Wakabayashi. Today is celebratory for two reasons. I return from an overbearingly long hiatus of a week and 2 days AND you, my viewership. I'm shocked at the traction this is getting already and I thank all of you for coming along with me for the journey. Here I talk about childhood traumas and overcoming unexpected events.

I also talk about this one song for way too long. Well not that long, I think I had a lot to say and I said it!

This is Episode 6 of the FITB Interlude Podcast with your host Naoto Wakabayashi. Forgot to say my intro in the beginning so I had to sneak that in somewhere!

Oh and I got some announcements. I'll be making this podcast a weekly series for now. Which is kinda wild because the daily thing was so much fun. I may switch it up later but for now, it'll be a weekly thing!

In this episode I discuss the Oscars; Bradley Cooper's girl's relationship security; and the wild, wild West that happens to be the music industry's foray into streaming. 

Song played:

"Just In You" (feat. Eric Bellinger) - Victor Oladipo

Enjoy!!!!!!

Today on the podcast, I talk about my last night in Tokyo and my apprehensions with moving to a new place. I also touch on inspiration. Its a beautiful thing. I didnt get to ask this on the podcast but what inspires you?? Lmk through a message.
