Welcome to Tokyo Splosion Quarterly! We are now a quarterly podcast releasing comedic ruminations focused on the changing seasons and how they influence our every day lives in Tokyo and Kanagawa.

In this rambunctious Summer 2019 installment Cal is assaulted by a Kafka-esque cicada, we play an ice cream game, we talk about festivals in Japan, and Alek doesn't like Cal's socks.

Track of the week: シモキタ音頭 (Shimokita Ondo) by 馬浪マラカス団 (Uma nami marakasu-dan)
