Members: Charles Kosoy, Rage Paige
Interpreter: Ito Shunsuke

Thank you very much for the radio staffs and everybody who were in the show last night.
It was very nice to see you all as always, and it's cool to have you at the show, Paige-san.

Eri san, the radio DJ, wanted to ask Paige-san how was her travel being in Miyako, but she just arrived from Morioka 1 hour before the show. So, she had not had enough time to look around that time, but hopefully, she is having fun with Charles san and others by now.

During the radio show, Paige san mentioned the fruits, such as watermelons, cucumbers, pineapples, so on, sold at the corners in Los Angels. And people there eat those with chili pepper powder.
I have never tried that before, so I am curious how the combination of sweet fruits and spicy chili pepper powder would be.. I would like to try it sometime.
There is always something new to learn from new people.

Paige-san is almost as tall as Charles-san; they are more or less than 6 feet tall.
When I walked with them, I felt like that alien between the FBI agents.

Don't Drive and INGRESS

INGRESS is an interesting smartphone game and I have been playing months now. What is INGRESS? Here's a wiki. Ingress (game) via Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ingress_(game) Players have to move around their towns for this game, so some players walk, another players use their bikes, and others drive. But you have to be very careful when you play this game and drive your car at the same time. When you get caught by watching smartphone while your are driving, you will get 1 penalty point on your driver's license and also the ticket cost you 6,000 yen. How do I know about it?

Ryukougo Taisho is one of the unique events of Japan. In the end of the year, they choose the buzzing words that everyone is using them in common during the year from TV shows, dramas, news, so on. (Sometime, it's not really used in common, but they pick those words anyway.) Last year, they chose some words from from politic, such as Abe Seiji wo Yurasanai (or "We won't tolerate Abe's politics") SEALDs, the "youth (well, there are some young folks but mostly old folks in their 60s and 70s) group" going against to Abe's politics) and so on.

At a theater

While I was watching the play at the theater, I suddenly said 　　　 then, I woke up. Yes, I was talking in my sleep. The person who was sitting next me was surprised and looking at me. So, I said her Then, I went back to sleep.
