Please visit my podcast on "LISTEN" - Moving the platform and restarting!

 Hi, dear listners. It's been long time. I am restarting my Japanese Language podcast in the new platform "LISTEN" https://listen.style/ I strongly recommend this new podcast platform for all Japanese language leaners. This service offers AI powered transcription. As well as the translation to other languages (if the creater chose to translate). This is a combination of podcast, blog and SNS. It is easier to link to various other platform (such as youtube and other web pages), and communicate with other cleators using trackback functions. I am indeed impressed with this platform and I would like to communicate with Japanese language learners using this service. Let me recommend you (Japanese language learners) to create your own podcast style diary, in Japanese language, and let me know your site. I will visit your site, listen to what you recorded and will leave comments!

I would like to recommend this video clips to everyone in the world, regardless if you like baseball or not. Many people (especially Japanese and Americans) would agree that Ichiro is the one of the greatest baseball players, and you would know why after you watch this video! His sincere attitude towards baseball inspired many people who are trying to grow and improve oneself, or people who are struggling in difficulties and challenges in lives, in many other area. Ichiro speaks clearly and slowly, that is another reason why I would like to recommend this video to Japanese language learners. This interview was done on 21 March 2019, on the day of his retirement. Ichiro was 45 years old.
