A Must Listen for Japan River Cruise Enthusiasts
I thought I was the only Japan River Cruise expert on the planet, but boy was I wrong! Ollie and Bobby are dynamos on the mic and their knowledge of river cruises in Japan is beyond reproach. If you’ve ever considered taking a river cruise in Japan, even if you just have a passing interest in river boats, or if your name is Brian, this is the podcast for you! My only complaint is that I wish it was a bit funnier. 5 stars!
A kind hearted and amusing view of gaikokujin life
I enjoy listening to podcasts while wandering about Japan, but this is the first that speaks to my current life rather than my past life in my home country. I love the bilingual humor, lamentations over 上手, and weird obsession with leisure water transportation. Thanks for making this and bringing on awesome guests
Great Pod
This podcast is laser focused on all things river cruise, as well as some other interesting stuff. If that floats your boat, you’ll love JBRC. These guys could cruise my river any time!
