Dai-Cast Banner

This week on Dai-Cast, it’s a surprise!  But seriously (Are we ever?) we discuss the recent trend of Butler Cafes catering to young women in Shibuya, new Korean space kimchi, Toshiba robot phones, an HD-DVD exchange program, and the greatest thing Japan will ever produce: Smoke on the Water.  All this, along with our usual derailments and ratholes for your listening “pleasure”.

Hosts: Ian Horner, Jason Hill, and Eryn Dearden, with Special Guest Courtney Hawkeye, and Brendan Dery as “Beej”.

This week on Dai-Cast, it’s an all testosterone three-quarter hour, with Ian, Beej, and Jason Hill as “Black Santa”. On the show, we receive new spam for the site in Japanese, examine the idea of Cat Cafe’s and Rental Girl’s Bedrooms in Akihabara. Plus, a Japanese company comes up with the idea of “Heartache Leave”, and examine the validity of the top photos foreigners take in Japan.

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