I am dissatisfied with the “Landmarks” segment. The same landmarks are presented over and over. I am sure there are many other beautiful places in Japan you could feature.

I really love this podcast, and my favorite part is when they do the endings segment with landmarks. I would love to see more episodes that have the landmark portion included in the episode. I find those ones to be especially interesting.

I like this podcast however you need to keep previous episodes

もうちょっと皆んなの英語の発音が良ければ聴きたいが、あまりにもアクセントが強いと聴く気にならないのが本心です。

it's great for seeing the world through a japanese perspective and to get news on japan in general, but please leave the episodes up and stop deleting them as soon as the new one comes out! atleast wait a week before you delete the old one!

Voice quality !!!

Typically virtually all podcasts include a summary of the contents for each podcast, yet I never see a summary for the NHK podcast episodes. Also, I would prefer the news be read by a person who speaks English as a first language or at least in a less stilted manner than the current news reader.

Hi I enjoy your programming on the tv but sometimes can not be at home to watch. Does this podcast only have one episode?

The show has the best daily news in Japan as far as I’ve found, plus NHK is the public broadcaster and I have always loved CBC, NPR, NRK and other public broadcasters. Problem is: the show is clearly made for video format and there are often “musical breaks” where something visual is probably happening that we can’t see.

Love listening to it every morning, just wish it didn’t update so inconsistently. Right now the iOS app hadn’t updated in a few days, while others have.
