Terrors from the West ft. Courage the Cowardly Dog show, Over the Garden Wall, and Regular Show: Terror Tales of the Park

Greetings, our beloved listeners! Friday has arrived and we brought our last spooky 🥶 episode of the Halloween 2021 to our Otsucare with a special guest 😈! We hope we didn't scare you too much last time. 👀 Last time we journeyed through the Eastern horrifying creatures and well today, perhaps we are gonna reminisce through our childhood terrors! 😦 I bet when our listeners were kids, they acquainted themselves with Cartoon Network shows at least in some extent or are we wrong? Our guest Rebecca and a host talked about their deepest yet darkest memories & experiences related with shows such as the fabled “Courage the Cowardly Dog show,” “Over the Garden Wall,” and special episodes presenting from “Regular Show,” “Terror Tales of the Park.” Without further hints, get yourselves ready and go back in time when “unknown” was feasting on you!🤫 We are available on Spotify, Google and Apple podcasts, and Stitcher! Note from telmwn: When I mentioned that I downloaded the episodes, I was referring to my personal dvd collections I had with. Since now it's hard to find those, you can watch any of the three shows from streaming services besides the Cartoon Network. You can watch from: - Over the Garden Wall — Hulu, HBO MAX, (for rent: Prime Video, Google Play) - Regular Show — Hulu, HBO MAX, (for rent: Prime Video, Google Play) - Courage the Cowardly Dog show — HBO MAX, Hoopla, (for rent: Prime Video, Google Play) Used image reference: https://www.fandom.com

S2E1: Horrors from the East ft. Aswang, Jorōgumo, Katakirauwa, and Enko

Heeelllo hello, our dearest listeners! Today is Friday and you know what comes out on Friday? Otsucare! Yes that is right. It is finally time to sit down, relax, and sip on some soup while listening to a fresh and juicy episode of our podcast. Well, but this time it might be a bit terrifying rather than relaxing. I bet everyone knows about vampires, werewolves or moth-man, but have you ever heard of other demonic creatures from Asia or Japanese yokais? If not, this episode is for you. We have a long but very interesting and spooky one this time where our hosts dwell on the story of Aswang and of course explore the rich culture of Japanese yokais. Without any further ado, go ahead and listen! May you have a fang-tastic evening.

#8 " Season Finale with the Queen B" (ft. Binta Aleogho)

Hello hello little birdies! We are finally at the end of Season 1 of OtsuCare~!! And for this Grand finale, we have a GRAND guest. She is a beauty, she is GRACE and she will most certainly feed you in yo face! She is THE Queen B! She is Binta! So many exclamations but 'tis truly an event for exclamations, for we get to know this precious human being! She shares the stories of her ventures to Japan from the distant lands of Nigeria in pursuit of finding the secret of ~life~. As with all ventures, her path is not without turmoil, but in her times of doubt, her spirituality comes for aid. We get an eye-opening glimpse (heh) into what religion means to Binta and how her relationship with God remains a constant beacon of hope and perseverance for her. That's not all! Behind every successful woman, there is a career she's passionate about, there is spirituality to keep her centered and then there is her fun time hobby as well! And as her circle of friends and 'kiddos' know, our Queen B loves cooking and feeding (both humans and worms. Life eh?) Lastly, we talk about career as a researcher and everything that entails it. It's not only big brains with multiple dimples, it's humility, patience, persistence, and kindness. Isn't this THE MOST WHOLESOME, BEEFY AND JUICY AND STACKED SEASON FINALE EVER?! We thank each and every one of our beloved listeners from the bottoms of our exercise-deprived hearts. We truly appreciate your support as we go on this journey to the vast and unfamiliar world of podcasting. We hope you have a successful finale of your semester and join us one last time (before the next season, of course) for a cozy evening of OtsuCare 3~ Happy finale everyone and big biiig Otsukare for another fulfilling semester! We are available on Spotify, Google and Apple podcasts, and Stitcher!

#7 "Baito & Stocks" (ft. Nalinporn Saprasert)

Dearest listeners, how are you feeling these days? Are days long, clothes sticky and schedules packed? Well, fret no more! For Otsucare is back! We are joined this time by the brilliantly charismatic Nalin~ She shares with us her story of coming to Japan, choosing her major and the vast number of baitos she has experience with. Name a baito and our dear guest can probably tell you how it goes! Talk about time management! And apparently there is quite a lot happening behind the counters. No spoilers here. We then learn that part-time jobs are not the only way of making an income. Stonks! Exactly! We learn the basic idea of investing in stonks, how it works in Japan and how it works for regular students like us! We say this every time, but, seriously this one is also a BANGER. Now getcho selves some snacks and come have a taste of fresh inspo yall! Yours truly, Otsucare~

#6 "PhD. Pride. Pho" ft. Bach Nguyen

Heyyyy~ what's poppin errbody. 'tis time for another OtsuCare~ For this episode, we were joined by a wonderful guest, who just exudes ~charm~ from every angle, Bach (he/him/his)! He shares with us the very recipe of his SUCCESS, in applying for prestigious universities for PhD (he's going to Duke University!!!) and overall being a kickass scientist. Not only that, we get to know little Bach as a kid figuring out his identity and facing the difficulties of being a young gay boy in a hetero dominated society. Things haven't been too easy, but Bach prevailed and decided he will not hide who he is from anyone for anything. We couldn't wish for a better way to close off Pride month! But remember, Pride is all day every day y'all. And, although Bach is not much of a "weary traveller" himself, he sure knows of a place where weary minds can rest . Now, cozy up with your favourite cuisine (Sen Viet ベトナム料理今池店 as recommended by our guest) and join us for another OtsuCare friday.

#5 - "Shoutout to Everyone!" (ft. Putri Gifta Desyanmi Santosa)

Well well well. If it isn't another sunny summer day at NU. And what's a sunny summer day without our lil' sunshine Gifta! This episode, Gifta shares her story as an international student slaying university life with student associations, dance groups and competitions and more! Cookin' like a chef she a 5 star Michelin~ if you know, you know ;) She shares with us why she chose to study in Japan, what being Muslim means to her and what it has been like in Japan for her. We get a glimpse into her personality growing up and how she maintains her charming cheerful persona even during the panoramic! It's a real heartwarmer, this one. We all needed a little pick-me-up since Mercury retrograde over the past few days, so grab yourself a well-earned treat and join us for a cheery little Friday evening 3
