Join hosts Tony and Ryan as they dig into Japan “one question” (ichimon) at a time. Whether it’s Japanese pop culture, the Japanese language, Japanese history, or strange hypotheticals, Tony and Ryan go deep into whatever the topic at hand is. In the process, they also have a few laughs. Episodes are released on a monthly basis. If you have any Japan-related questions, send them to ichimon@japankyo.com.
