  • Just Awesome

    This is by far the most interesting and informative podcast about history of Japan. I recommend you to go from episode 1 and see how it evolves and leads you into a formidable journey. From general knowledge and curiosities to precise details and personal experiences from the author you will get the best of the best. If you like japan and everything about Japanese culture, this is a must hear.
