Think you know Japan? Anime, samurai and temples are only part of the story. Hosts Risu (born and raised in Nara), William (the "token foreigner" from Nottingham) and their friends Yossi (a nurse from Aomori) and Kuni (a countryside kid turned Osaka city boy) dig into everyday Japanese life, culture and language.

It's chill, it's silly, and it's full of tangents, laughs and the occasional swear word.

Our first three episodes drop November 12 on all podcast platforms. They cover school uniforms, Japanese vending machines and Japanese writing systems.
