Video game translator, localization expert, and video game music DJ Andrew Klim tells us about his journey from being an English teacher in a rough and tumble junior high school in Yamanashi to working on localizations for massive titles including Final Fantasy, Shenmue, One Piece, Attack on Titan, and... erotic games. Aaron and Parker share awe at Andrew's tales of brawling with chimpira in Koenji, and discuss the evolving Tokyo Olympics corruption case, a Tokyo doctor accused of forging COVID vaccine docs, and a man mistakenly arrested for drunk riding by cops while pushing his motorbike.
