RONJIRU JAPAN
RONJIRU (pronounced ɾond͡ʑiɾɯ) is a Japanese verb meaning to discuss, to debate or to talk about; the RONJIRU JAPAN podcast is where discussion and debate about topics related to Japan takes place in English. The show host, JayTee, is a long-term Japan resident who acts as a bridge to make the ideas and achievements of various figures in Japan (and Japan-lovers) accessible to a global audience.
Japan is an energetic island nation that is at once exotic, admirable, confounding, and sometimes controversial. Through hard work and achievements, the country has become one of the world’s top five economies, a trendsetter in industry and technology, and a leader in automobiles, electronics and more. It’s also a popular tourist destination, and the origin of entertainment products that have captured the attention and imaginations of people everywhere.
However, what is actually going on inside of Japan—the opportunities and routines of daily life, society, and even politics—remains largely unknown to the world, except among Japanophiles, and for the occasional headline or story.
RONJIRU JAPAN seeks to explore the multiple facets of this country through conversations with Japanese business persons, politicians, influencers, athletes, actors, musicians, and experts from a variety of fields in Japan and globally. The RONJIRU JAPAN podcast is a forum that lets them tell their stories, articulate their hopes and hurdles, and share with the world the reality of modern Japan.
So...let's discuss Japan.
