Amazing content

Look forward every day to get my Japan fix

salad senpai ,

Long time listener

The show is great but it needs more ads in the beginning, middle and end as well as more of Pete talking about his political opinions that aren’t relevant to Japan 👍🏻that’d be great

The episodes with guests besides Pete are good.

etherdog ,

Superficial chatter tangential to Japan

The best content about Japan is when the focus is on Japan and not the people presenting the content. Chris has the capacity to produce and present the content but usually takes the lazy approach, dumbs down content and focuses on himself. Dont focus on the stereotypes but on the Zeitgeist.
