Wow.

Hello, 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 Broad, we're joined, as always, by England's top Japan enthusiast, Mr. Pete Donaldson.

Pete, how the devil are you doing? Coffee Time. It's not coffee time. It's never coffee time. In the history of

television, no one has ever started. You know, who wants to be a millionaire? I can't remember who

does it in America, but I also can't remember who did it in the UK. But there was two or three horse, I believe. Chris Tarant, I believe. He would not start Who Wants to Be Millier. Welcome to Who Wants to Be Millionaire! And then crack up in a can of coffee. Kilimanjaro Tollies and start sopping from it. Nobody would ever do that. I'm good, Chris. It's early in the morning,

just as it is dawning. And I've just spent about five minutes trying to find the lid off the bin we used to put nappies in, because it's gone somewhere in the garden. I couldn't

find it. And I feel like I've kind of, if I leave it open, it's a recipe for disaster, Chris.

It's a stinky bin full of poo. I mean, there is, is there leave it open, it's a recipe for disaster, Chris. It's a stinky bin full of poo.

I mean, there is, is there a, like, I think everybody in their life should have a

stinky bin full of poo they have to manage because that is, I think that's a lovely

kind of metaphor for the soul.

A stinky bin that must be covered at all times so the smelly poo does not come out.

What is wrong with you? I mean, that's probably better than how I was woken. I was woken up by six

Black Hawk helicopters. I thought, oh, they're coming for me finally. They're coming for me in my

stash of Tully's Kilimanjaro blend coffee. In fact, the King of America himself is here in Japan for I think 48 hours.

Right.

Mr. Trump, President Trump, is here to strike some deals and make some money.

Yeah.

And he came here.

The one thing we all wanted was, can you lower the tariffs, please?
