Bad Communication

A man about town, a newcomer to Japan, host of the new Tokyo Podcast with an impressive resume, Anthony Joh joins us as a guest on this week’s show. In addition to our chat with Anthony, we talk about a McDonald’s french fry scandal, the Tokyo Motor Show, the most expensive car accident in history and some vintage subway manner posters from times forgotten. We had a ton of mail from the viewers we were hoping to get to, but we unfortunately ran out of time. We’ll get to it first thing on next week’s show. Be there!

Where did the time go? Only a week late, but chock full of newsy goodness out of Japan! We’ve got a story about designer prosthetic limbs, a robotic pillow that gently mauls your face when you snore, a disastrous delay of the very popular video game Love Plus, the world’s fastest supercomputer, a pervy female groper and some post-apocalyptic images of Japan. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
