Wow!

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

I'm your host Chris Broad, we're joined as always by England's Top Japan enthusiast Mr. Pete Donaldson himself.

Pete, how you doing?

I'm good, just received an email from Amazon saying that I think the 13th and the 40th of October is prime day,

so I'm currently stroking my credit card and apologising to the horrible things I'm going to do to it.

And you can say, Pete, what about the corporation tax, Amazon, you know, the evil company?

Yes, they are, but they do have a lot of electronics I want to buy, so there's that, isn't there?

I am broadly anticapitalist until there's an opportunity to buy a rumble for £100, so you know,

one of the, yeah, I really want to rob a robotic vacuum cleaner, because I am interested in the

lazy Chris, until like mind you though, is there a rumble that could do stairs? When are they going to

do, when are, when are, what's that company that does Boston Dynamics? When a Boston Dynamics

going to produce a Hoover that can climb up the, the stairs and the rubber up stuff?

Cracking up, spot the door, yeah.

Nice one. That is a bizarre purchase. I mean, I've just been on Amazon buying less

interested things. I bought like four hard drives, what do you hate? And the reason I bought four hard

drives is because I'm gearing up for Jenny across Japan to escape to Mount Fuji, which unfortunately

you can't join this time, because you're not here. No, that's not happening.

You would, and that is the real crime. That is the real crime that I can't join you, because I think

I've spoken on modern occasions, I do actually fancy climbing Mount Fuji. Probably probably the

greatest time to do it would be this year on XDR presumably Chris, because I suppose

there'll be fewer people actually climbing Mount Fuji, am I right?
