Japanatron is Japanarrific!
Not what I had hoped
I downloaded and listened to this podcast in the hopes of hearing a nuanced rumination on life in Japan. Instead, I (and others) received an ethnocentric polemic against smoking in Japan. The author comes off as paternalistic (not the first, certainly not the last) towards the Japanese.
