Of the many things people chose to do during the lockdown, I chose to learn a language, Japanese. I read a tweet where someone mentioned – This Week in Japan, and the next thing you know my ears were plugged.
Julian Domanski and Yasharu...”Read full review »

“An eloquent and professional report of current events occurring in Japan!
As an Australian, I often feel that we are rather segmented and ostracised from the world news, so it is so refreshing to hear a critical review and reflection on your experience.
Julian and Yasu present current events...”Read full review »

“Julian and Yasu knows how to make every episode dinamic and interesting all the way through. I can even say that some episodes has an inspirational vibe that makes me think outside my ocidental box, since Japan has an unlike culture and way of life. Keep up the good work!”

“Listened to episode “Youngest Ever Shogi Master is Born”. Love the jazzy jingle! Great chemistry and conversation. Very professional and concise. I do find it interesting that the government would be encouraging people to travel with a campaign during this time. You two make some great points....”Read full review »
