Having experience living on the opposite side of the Pacific Ocean before and a decade of Japanese language and cultural knowledge, I aim to share insightful perspectives of Japan every Wednesday. If you are interested in Japan, whether that be the culture, language, music, food, or anything else under the rising sun, this podcast will have something for you to learn. ## Machine-readable JSON: https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/two-shores-one-story-7110565 Markdown: https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565.md ## Episodes - [Episode 25: How to improve your Japanese learning with Kaleb](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-25-how-to-improve-your-japanese-learning-with-kaleb) — 2025-06-04T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 24: Back from Training!](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-24-back-from-training) — 2025-05-28T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 23: Stay Healthy in Japan (from someone who didn't)](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-23-stay-healthy-in-japan-from-someone-who-didn-t) — 2025-05-21T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 22: Converting Your Drivers' License in Japan (from someone who failed the first time)](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-22-converting-your-drivers-license-in-japan-from-someone-who-failed-the-first-time) — 2025-05-14T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 21: Rock bottom in Japan](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-21-rock-bottom-in-japan) — 2025-05-07T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 20: 20 Questions about Me (Japan Edition)](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-20-20-questions-about-me-japan-edition) — 2025-04-30T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 19: Furukawa Festival](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-19-furukawa-festival) — 2025-04-22T14:59:00+00:00 - [Episode 18: Back to School (in April?!): A New Term in Japan](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-18-back-to-school-in-april-a-new-term-in-japan) — 2025-04-16T03:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 17: Sakura and the Scale](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-17-sakura-and-the-scale) — 2025-04-09T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 16: My Trip To Kanazawa](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-16-my-trip-to-kanazawa) — 2025-04-02T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 15: Birthday Chit Chat](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-15-birthday-chit-chat) — 2025-03-26T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 14: My First Festival (as a Volunteer!)](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-14-my-first-festival-as-a-volunteer) — 2025-03-19T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 13: All about Graduation (and other ramblings)](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-13-all-about-graduation-and-other-ramblings) — 2025-03-12T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 12: My Trip to Kusatsu (and other places)](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-12-my-trip-to-kusatsu-and-other-places) — 2025-02-26T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 11: A Hop From the Atlantic (First TSOS Guest!)](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-11-a-hop-from-the-atlantic-first-tsos-guest) — 2025-02-19T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 10: Valentine's Day (Japan Edition!)](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-10-valentine-s-day-japan-edition) — 2025-02-12T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 9: Netflix, Doctor X, and the importance of Context](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-9-netflix-doctor-x-and-the-importance-of-context) — 2025-02-05T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 8: Buying a Car in Japan](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-8-buying-a-car-in-japan) — 2025-01-29T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 7: Being a J-Pop Fan is Dangerous](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-7-being-a-j-pop-fan-is-dangerous) — 2025-01-22T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 6: My First Four Months as an ALT](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-6-my-first-four-months-as-an-alt) — 2025-01-15T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 5: Driving in Japan: "Tires" and Tribulations](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-5-driving-in-japan-tires-and-tribulations) — 2025-01-08T08:00:00+00:00 - [Episode 4: Starting Anew](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-4-starting-anew) — 2025-01-01T08:13:38+00:00 - [Episode 3: Clip Clopping Through Tokyo (My first few days as a JET Participant)](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-3-clip-clopping-through-tokyo-my-first-few-days-as-a-jet-participant) — 2024-09-25T08:30:00+00:00 - [Episode 2: The Two Shores, One Story Podcast](https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-shores-one-story-7110565/episode-2-the-two-shores-one-story-podcast) — 2024-09-18T08:50:00+00:00 - [Episode 1: Dare desu ka?
