Bad Communication

Don’t try to contain us! Don’t try to keep us down! We’re busting out of here with or without our clothing! We start off the show with a long chat about anime and manga and finish up the show with some of the best stories out of Japan from the past week! Don’t forget about Loco in Yokohama coming on the show next week!

This is our super mellow show where we bring the charm, but dial down the loud this week. In addition to our usual antics, we talk about last Saturday’s Tokyo meet up, our favorite future maglev train, throw in a track pick, a jellyfish pic pick and cap it all off with a top 10 and some Lady Gaga! Don’t forget to call in, write us or leave a video voicemail. We’ll play it on the show!

• Live Show Changes
  • In addition to the shifting around of the next live show due to Andrew’s trip back to California for a week, we’re planning on permanently moving our live taping of the show to Monday evening at around 7:00pm. This will make it a bit harder for our international audience to tune in and watch us live, but we thought it would be a good time for our domestic, Japan based audience to drop in and say hi. Have some dinner and turn on the live taping of Bad Communication while you polish off a cold, tasty beverage as you watch us make fools of ourselves.
  • Our next live show will be on Monday morning at 10:00am here in Japan and after that at 7:00pm on Monday evening.
