The Konnichiwa Podcast - Conversations in English and Japanese

Hello! I just learned about your podcast last week but really wish I had before the end 🙁 I am from New York and lived in Tokyo from 2017-2020. I haven’t been great at learning languages so it was challenging for me to really tap into learning Japanese while living in Japan. Now that I am back in the U.S., I have been strict with my self study. Thank you for creating interesting content in English and Japanese! The podcast is easy to follow and I can test my listening/vocabulary skills as a beginner. I will enjoy the last couple of episodes and will also go back to previous seasons while on this language journey. Thank you!

Hey Konipo team. I have been listening to your podcast for several year and finally decided to give you a long deserved well overdue review. I have lived in Japan from 2018-2022, in Saitama, for a temporary work reassignment. I can say it was the best time of my life as I met my wife there, got married, and started a family. I am now back living in the US, but I listen to your episodes every week. Every time I listen, I am filled with nostalgia and taken back to my days living in Japan. I am hoping to find a job in Japan again and move out there in the future. Thanks for making great shows!

Great for Japanese learners to have on while doing other work. Very educational and for someone who’s still a beginner, much more efficient for learning than full immersion!

I enjoy every episode and it’s great to mix languages for practice!
