Hello and welcome to the Abroad Japan podcast, probably the best way of learning about life in Japan without actually being in Japan.

I'm your host Chris Broaden, we're joined as always by England's top Japan enthusiast Mr Pete Dawson himself. Pete, how are you doing today?

Oh, you did it into a real quick. I'm still eating me Quasson. Sorry everyone. I'm eating Quasson. Oh, no, Quasson. It's the morning here. It's the morning time.
