Good podcast. I thought the comment about Eminem was a bit borderline racialist though. If he is good who cares what his color is? Same if he is terrible.

FYI the audience was 40% female and about 50% over 25. So a lot of snobs got it wrong.

Japan isn't always last on the release list. Battleship came out here first. Amazing Spiderman will come out here first. Dark Shadows and MI3 will come out at about the same time. That "we need more time to grow buzz" excuse falls flat...

Have any Japanese TaRentos raised money for Tohoku recently or has it tapered off? Just curious if anyone knows.

Someone on the podcast said that the nuclear plants are just as dangerous offline in a disaster but a number of people I mentioned this too said this was unlikely. Maybe you could elaborate on this in a future podcast. Also guys try not to be so Tokyo-centric if possible, remember there's a whole country out there besides often overrated Tokyo, thanks!

Wow if it was J-pop this wouldn't be a problem at all since Singing isn't actually involved.

She is kinda hot but unfortunately Koda Kumi, though not being as hot (especially face), makes videos that are ALOT better like DDD or Cherry girl. Every one of Amuros videos shes just dancing the same way, if she learned from KK's videos she wouldnt have to dance so hard.

Yeah if he dont go soon hes going to miss his chance. He can always come back like Jojima Shinjo ect if he wants to. Yankees were burned pretty badly by Igawa so they might be reluctant with him.

I wonder how many of the Japanese fans know Cynthia Nixon is now married to a woman?
