We’re delighted to announce the launch of a new podcast on the Pokya.jp network – Making it in Japan.

Japan Podshow is doing really well, with a great audience base that continues to grow with each episode. However, we appreciate that some people don’t have the time to listen to a full episode – but at the same time they do want to hear the interviews with our special guests, who tend to talk a lot more sense that we (George and Joseph) do.

Also, we sometimes record excellent, inspiring interviews with guests, but due to time limitations are unable to fit them into Japan Podshow in their entirety.

Enter Making it in Japan – a purposely minimalistic podcast. As we say over there:

“Making it in Japan showcases the achievements of English-speaking entrepreneurs and artists. In our interviews we hear how they have built businesses or carried out artistic projects, learn of the challenges specific to Japan that they faced along the way (and how these were overcome), and find out what they would tell others who are thinking of pursuing careers in related fields.”

We have three episodes up already, two of which were first broadcast on Japan Podshow.
