“If you’re looking for a mediocre examination of life in Japan from a foreigner’s perspective then yeah this is okay I guess. Don’t expect to learn about Japanese culture or traditions—this isn’t the podcast for it.
Having listened to all episodes Chris’ entire spiel is “haha Japanese people don’t speak English isn’t that so wacky and funny?” While initially the podcast episodes presented a look at various aspects of Japan that are indeed strange and/or unique, the formula for new episodes is now “look at this weird news article about Japan, aren’t Japanese people so kooky?!” followed by reading emails. This podcast has clearly run out of material. Chris is also oblivious to his occasional jingoistic remarks, to which Pete can only awkwardly chuckle along. It hurts to listen to.
The people who still enjoy this hot garbage are probsbly cringey weebs, judging from his YouTube fanbase. What a sad group of losers.”
