Fri, 28 November 2008 Alex and Rob manage to fill 45 minutes of podcast with probably the worst French an Englishman and a Yank have ever produced. Actually there was some English, Japanese and Spanish thrown in there as well. Some may ask "Pourquoi?!" Posted by Rob.

Thu, 27 November 2008 ![]() Happy Thanksgiving from Tokyo, Japan. Here are some recordings from the past few days spliced together in into one podcast. There's a lot of misinformation contained within due to the lack of maps and general sense of my whereabouts at the time of the recordings. Please standby for clarification and links! Posted by Rob.

Sat, 15 November 2008 ![]() Five of us met up for beers and real ales at Popeye on Wednesday. What transpired was recorded for posterity and edited to protect the guilty. This enhanced podcast may meet further censorship by the participants, so this version is special, as it might be replaced by one less offensive to interested parties. Or something like that. Stand by for more detailed notes, which we all took, or at least attempted to, and which might appear over on Learn Japanese Pod, or on the forums. The photo is of a poster in the bar. We might do this again sometime. Please join us if you'd like! Posted by Rob. Tags: NFTOS, Alex Brooke, Learn Japanese Pod, coffeebot3000, Stone River, Rob a.k.a.

Fri, 14 November 2008 ![]() "Je ne suis pas comme une damme de la cour de Versailles, qui disait: c'est bien dommage que l'aventure de la tour de Babel ait produit la confusion des langues; sans cela tout le monde aurait toujours parlé français." Votaire, 1767 We learn how Alex sounds so intelligent in Japanese, why, it's by studying "How to Sound Intelligent in Japanese." We talked about having had gyudon at Yoshinoya for lunch, and about waiting for B-Chan, so we can go out to an izakaya in the evening, among other things. Recorded in Chiba. Standby for more links and stuff. Posted by Rob. Tags: NFTOS, Alex Brooke, Rob a.k.a. El Gringo, Coffeebot3000, makikomo, Chiba, Tokyo, Japan
