## Resource

This week on the Tokyo Joshi Pod we chat Shino Suzuki, who shortly after her homecoming show announced an indefinite leave of absence. Andy reviews the show, shares his thoughts on Shino’s hiatus and discusses her growth over the past few years. Also on today’s episode, we cover the Stand Alone ’26 press conference (complete with some rude insults hurled at Uta Takami), preview the upcoming Shinjuku show, celebrate Aja Kong’s 40th anniversary, check in on Wakana’s competitive eating side quest, and wish a happy birthday to Ren Konatsu. All that and more on an episode you certainly don’t want to miss!
