Moving to another country is no small feat, and moving back is even more challenging. With that in mind, we've decided to close this chapter of Our Weird Life. 100 episodes would have been way too conventional, you know?

To everyone that's taken the time listening to our weekly podcasts- thank you. We appreciate all our fellow owls. We've loved recording every single episode. Who knows how we'll return, but you can rest assured that when we do, it'll be weirder than you imagined.

Hair has a mind of its own. Cut it off and it might just find its way back onto your body. Ever wanted an elbow beard? Well… you’ll probably never get one, but that’s beside the point. Today we delve into the experience of getting a new hairdo in Japan. We also take a brief dive into the world of thespians and their endeavours to stay in character, no matter the cost.

Do you hear that scuttling noise coming from above? Let’s hope it’s only a mouse and nothing more sinister. Today, among other weird things, we discuss an experience of ear syringing in a Japanese hospital. Rest assured that all matters of dignity should be left at the door!

If you hear croaking in the background of today’s podcast, our apologies… The frogs have come out to display their finest “ribbit” for all amphibians to marvel at. In this episode, we explore the many ways in which English-speakers across the world say the exact same thing, using very different words. Isn’t life confusing! Wonder if frogs have the same problem?

Japanese arcade game culture is a sight to behold. Bright lights and loud music make up this adrenaline-inducing experience, and the best part is… YOU CAN ACTUALLY WIN GOOD STUFF. Trust us, we were skeptics once, too!
