Recorded in early March 2020, this short episode of Small in Japan was seemingly lost forever after an unfortunate editing error on an unnamed member of the show's part (his name rhymes with Stephen) but was miraculously recovered through the modern wonder of cloud storage technology!  Now restored and remastered to the peak glory of technical achievement, this new(-ish) episode of Small in Japan will go down in the history books as an episode of a minor podcast about Japan.

Nick and Stephen are alive and recording remotely!  Terrace House, Okamura's sex worker controversy, and Bobby beating his wife (allegedly) all come up as topics of discussion but most of all we just want you to be kind online!  Don't be a dick!   Don't be a dick, be a Patron! http://patreon.com/SmallInJapan
