This week on Dai-Cast we give you actual education for your mental emolument. First off, it’s a little on the Japanese alphabet Katakana, used for “foreign” words, and good information for “Viking” seekers in Tokyo. Then it’s time to talk about the presidential primaries, with “Barack Obama” visiting Obama station, and how he could have got a Nintendo DS by riding JR. Then it’s an educational rathole into the terminology of Japanese schools. We also mention Magical Witches Love and Berry for some reason… Plus, we mention High School Girl brand meat products, then move on to Sega’s English of the Dead!

Hosts: Ian Horner, and Jason Hill, with Brendan Dery as “Beej”.
