Shownotes
We open the show with a service for women who are looking for a snappy comeback.
Joe Barlow is a Planet Japan listener who has a great movie review podcast called Cinema Slave, and a brand-new blog to accompany it.
PJ listener Yasu Watanabe let us know about the latest breach of etiquette at onsens in Japan.
Japanese students continue to get ripped off at McEnglish Schools.
Our Dick of the Week was suggested by a listener named Christine. His name is John Petroski and he earned the honor by penning an essay in his college newspaper entitled, "Rape Only Hurts if You Fight It."
Runnerup honors go to the Delta Zeta sorority at DePauw in Indiana, who kicked out 23 students for not being sufficiently committed to recruiting. It apparently was just a coincidence that they were all either overweight or minorities.
Nihongo a Go Go takes a look at useful Japanese for women who may find themselves being molested on the train.
We chat with a Planet Japan listener, Brevard Smith, who was passing through Okayama.
We close with another great song from David Ippolito, courtesy of the Podsafe Music Network. It's called Talk Louder.
Be sure to check out Amy's Dollar Bookstore. You can find lots of great ebooks for only a dollar.
That's it for this week! Thanks for listening!
