Welcome to So Japanese Podcast! I’m Ryusuke — a chef, storyteller, and lifelong observer of Japanese culture.
In each episode, I share stories and lessons from Japan that reveal the heart of everyday life — from food and family to philosophy and language.
Sometimes I’ll dive into Japanese culture and traditions, and other times, I’ll teach real, natural Japanese expressions you can actually use.
It’s all about discovering what makes Japan so Japanese.
日本の“日常”を、ちょっと深く、ゆるく楽しむラジオ。
