HAPPY TIMES! #3: The Otaku Spectrum

Once again, Trevor-kohai was lured into DIJ studios under the pretense of ‘a quick chat’ with 'free pizza and matcha' only to be mercilessly schooled in the ancient, highly classified art of podcasting—WW2 Japanese Secret Police-style. Picture it: 12 grueling hours of unrelenting waterboarding with Calpis (don’t worry, we used the fizzy kind for maximum effect) before he finally caved in and agreed to grace us with his presence for another round of HAPPY TIMES. And let me tell you, folks, the results are nothing short of miraculous. So buckle up, grab your spoons, and prepare yourself for a steaming hot serving of double cheese gyudon—served with a side of Trevor’s tears. Just the way you like it!
