The best podcast on current events in Japan!
I’ve been listening to this podcast since 2018 and it’s so consistently good. I never tire of it! Even at the times when the topic for that week’s episode, on its face, doesn’t seem like it will be of interest to me, I listen anyway, and even then I find myself engaged and so glad to have listened. Oscar Boyd is a greater presenter and interviewer. He’s the rare gaijin on a Japan-focused podcast who is, well, normal and not a clown. He’s professional, smart, thoughtful, and just runs things so well. I’m so glad this podcast exists. I became a digital subscriber to the Japan Times mostly because I wanted to do something to support this podcast. Keep up the great work, Oscar and everyone at the Japan Times!
