Summary
Out for a run but it was hard to get going! Didn’t get last night’s episode up until around midnight. Hope you enjoyed the talk with Art after yesterday’s episode. His website is artimax.com Logistics of running! Japan obeys the rules and that means stop lights! And there are quite a few of those in the neighbourhood! Found it a bit difficult to navigate, not least of all because everybody was on their way to work. More live streams! YouTube and TikTok, both through Shinsaibashi. Starbucks has donuts here! And how is the food? What have you been eating? And how much is all of it? And the shocking realization… that I’ve been here before. WHY?? Donate to the show!
