Il Giappone è davvero rimasto intrappolato nel passato?In questa puntata di Plot Twister, Luca e Rudy Vianello raccontano la nostalgia Shōwa: il fenomeno che riporta in vita il Giappone degli anni '50, '60, '70 e '80 attraverso kissaten, shotengai, cream soda, city pop, telefoni a disco e locali retrò. Una memoria selettiva che tiene il meglio di quell'epoca e dimentica il resto: povertà del dopoguerra, rigidità sociale, condizioni di lavoro durissime. E poi il paradosso: mentre i veri quartieri Shōwa scompaiono, il Giappone ne costruisce di nuovi, dal museo del ramen di Yokohama ai parchi a tema, per far rivivere un Paese che guardava al futuro con molto più ottimismo di oggi.Abbiamo nostalgia del passato, o del futuro che quel passato prometteva?

This week on Cocktail Nation, we slip into a world of tiki moonlight, sophisticated jazz and lounge music that makes you feel better dressed simply by listening to it. We take a special look at legendary arranger and bandleader Billy May, wander from Yokohama to Rome, and uncover the curious story of how television learned to tell audiences when to laugh. Plus, Lounge Life Magazine brings us an update on Barbara Eden, while the story of tiki pioneer Donn Beach reminds us that sometimes a bar is really an invitation to enter another world. There's exotica, jazz, a little bachelor-pad philosophy and plenty more along the way. So pour yourself something cold, turn the lights down low and settle in for another sophisticated trip through Cocktail Nation.

Omakase is back for another episode, as John is joined by returning guest Paul Volsch, co-host of the Emerald Flow Show on this very network! They start out a week of talking about mostly smaller shows building to bigger ones with STARDOM's 9/6 Korakuen Hall event, a show that featured some good build to their upcoming Yokohama Budokan show and also a truly horrendous High Speed Title match. They then give a full preview of said Yokohama Budokan show on 9/12 including how likely they think all the major titles are to change hands.Then it's back to the world of Tokyo Joshi to cover their 9/5 Yokohama Radiant Hall event, featuring a great three-way tag match to determine the Princess Tag challengers on their major Ota show early next month. They also give a quick look ahead at what's coming up for TJPW, including an early look at said Ota card and how tickets are moving for it so far. They then continue their ongoing coverage of Marigold's Dream Star GP with a look at the day/night doubleheader from Osaka, including some stuff that really worked for them and a couple things that really, really didn't. (NOTE: This was recorded before Nao Ishikawa withdrew from the rest of her Dream Star GP matches- just noting this since at one point we speculate about whether or not she's out for the rest of the tournament, and now we obviously know she is!)Finally, they wrap things up with a quite passionate review of Dragongate's 9/3 Korakuen show, a truly baffling event on multiple levels. Allegedly this was to build their own major show, also on 9/12 from Ota, but unless you count Jiro Shimbashi it's hard to figure out how exactly this show was supposed to even do that. They rant quite a bit about DG booking in 2026 in general as they also preview said Ota show with an absolutely absurd name (seriously, what was wrong with Dangerous Gate guys??). Also some other odds & ends including Paul attending All In in London, the Wrestle Kingdom 21 ticket prices & on sale dates finally being revealed, and more!Check out the Emerald FlowShow: https://redcircle.com/shows/the-emerald-flowshowFollow Wrestling Omakase's Twitter account: http://www.twitter.com/wrestleomakaseFollow John on Bluesky: http://bsky.app/profile/justoneenby.bsky.socialOur Sponsors:* Sign up for MyBookie today and use our code VOWNETWORK for access to MyBookie's one of a kind Bet Back Bonus!

Welcome into the Smoke Circle for the start of season 8! The sisters have cooked up another episode of food history with part two of The Munchies That Made Us! In part one, we discussed four food staples that grew civilizations and created the classic munchies we know and love. Part two traces the origins of "The Holy Trinity" of savory stoner foods: pizza, tacos, and instant ramen. This episode shows how global trade, migration, war, and convenience shaped what we eat when the munchies hit. Along the way, we debate who has the best pizza, get delightfully sidetracked by tomato lore (did you know the tomato isn't native to Italy?!), the mystery of the taco, and what a hostage crisis did for instant ramen sales. ~~~~~~*Timestamps 01:05 - Part two preview: pizza, tacos, and instant ramen 06:31 - Recap of part one and the role of staple crops 07:30 - Why pizza belongs on every munchies list 09:58 - Focaccia, flatbreads, and the missing tomato 12:39 - Tomatoes begin in Mesoamerica, not Italy 15:03 - Columbus, Cortés, and the Columbian Exchange 19:26 - Europe mistrusts tomatoes as “wolf peaches” 27:28 - Naples, volcanic soil, and the first tomato sauce pizza 30:07 - The Margherita pizza legend and royal branding 32:24 - Pizza spreads through Italy and into the United States 38:35 - What counts as a taco and why chalupas are real 40:05 - Corn tortillas in Mesoamerica and the roots of taco culture 42:40 - One theory for the word taco from silver mines 46:37 - The “chili queens” and tacos entering American food culture 49:52 - Glenn Bell, Taco Bell, and the commercialization of tacos 54:10 - Instant ramen as one of the world's most consumed foods 56:10 - Japan closes its doors, then reopens under the Meiji Restoration 58:00 - Chinese noodle soup becomes ramen in Yokohama 59:48 - World War II destruction and the food crisis in Japan 64:28 - Momofuku Ando spots the long ramen line that sparks an idea 66:26 - The invention of shelf-stable instant noodles and the launch of Chicken Ramen 70:31 - Cup noodles and the push into the American market 73:52 - The hostage crisis accidentally becomes a massive ramen commercial 78:40 - The Shin-Yokohama Ramen Museum and ramen culture today 81:12 - Why convenience foods matter and what they trade off~~~~~*Mentioned in the Episode:Episode 90: The Werewolf Trials of Europe Half Baked (1998) Munchies List~~~~~*The Socials and Patreon!Patreon-- The Best Buds Club!

“That's how I would picture fascists: this never-satisfied, dissonant climb to nothing… to ruin.” — David Baerwald Earlier this month, the historian James M. Scott came on the show to talk about those three deadly days in August 1945 when the Americans dropped two nuclear bombs on Japan. Today we return to that war in the skies above Japan. Only with a fictional twist. Behind this fiction, however, is the kind of family saga that few novelists have either the nerve or imagination to invent. It concerns three generations of the Baerwalds. In the Thirties, a German Jewish organic chemist called Ernst Baerwald worked for (of all people) I.G. Farben, the company that manufactured the gas used at Auschwitz. A sophisticated Japanophile, Baerwald was Farben's man in Tokyo, where he hobnobbed with a member of the royal family. American intelligence turned Ernst Baerwald into a spy, using his intimate knowledge of Japan in their firebombing of Tokyo. In exchange, Baerwald fled to the United States with his wife and son Hans, who became a leading authority on 20th century Japanese politics. Hans' son, David Baerwald, meanwhile, became a platinum-selling musician who has worked with Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Rickie Lee Jones, Sheryl Crow, and Bruce Springsteen. Growing up in California, David knew little about Ernst. But seven years ago, while clearing out the family home after the Los Angeles fires, he discovered his grandfather's diaries, photographs, and letters. He found a 1943 speech to the American Intelligence School proving that Ernst, a German Jew who loved Japan, knew the details of the Tokyo firebombing in which 140,000 people died, two years before it happened. “I have no qualifications as a historian,” David Baerwald confesses. So what followed was The Fire Agent, a 624-page novel loosely imagined around his grandfather's enigmatic life. But what David brought to this epic was a lyricist's skill in the kind of musical composition that enabled him to keep characters in play like sections of an orchestra. No wonder then that The Fire Agent is one of the most acclaimed literary debuts of the year. And no wonder that, in our age of looming fascism, The Fire Agent reads as more than just history. Five Takeaways • Papers Found in a Fire. The novel began, appropriately, in flames: during a Los Angeles fire at an old family home, Baerwald discovered his grandfather's papers — among them a 1943 speech delivered at the American Intelligence School in San Francisco, proving that Ernst Baerwald was deeply involved in, or at least privy to, the planning of the Tokyo firebombing two years before the bombs fell in March 1945. The shock was moral as much as archival: everything David knew of his grandfather was how much he loved Japan and hated what happened to it. The contradiction became an obsession, the obsession became an investigation — of one family, and of the joining of industry and fascism in three countries — and the investigation became a novel, because “I have no qualifications as a historian” and a novel allows some jokes to carry the tragedy's weight.• The Man Who Knew Where the Gas Was. Ernst Baerwald, the family's “dye seller,” was nothing so modest: dyestuffs being slang for organic chemistry, he was Asia director of the chemical cartel that supplied IG Farben — the conglomerate that built a work camp at Auschwitz — a violinist mentor to Prince Takamatsu, and a German Jew too valuable to fire until far too late. He helped build Tokyo's natural gas distribution system after the Kanto earthquake, which meant he knew every depot, fuel store, and pumping station in the city he loved — knowledge that made this dual enemy alien mysteriously trusted by American intelligence. His OSS box is nearly empty; the OSS Society's verdict was “he was a commie.” Behind him stands the Philanthropin — the Frankfurt school of the Jewish Enlightenment his father Hermann ran — which raised Ernst antifascist before fascism existed: “before he was a German, before he was an American, before he was a lover of Japan, he was a hater of tyranny.”• “So We Firebombed the Civilians.” The moral reckoning at the book's heart: 140,000 killed in Tokyo, sixty-five more cities burned — while the industrial strip from Tokyo to Yokohama was deliberately spared, because America wanted it intact to rebuild the Japanese economy after the war. Baerwald calls the firebombing “an atrocity of unspeakable terms” and, following Gar Alperovitz, questions the necessity of the atomic bombs — a message to the Soviets more than a strategy against Japan. His father, scheduled for the invasion that never came, felt lifelong relief at Hiroshima — one of many things father and son never discussed. “Why do fathers and sons have problems? A lot of reasons.” The writing became a posthumous reconciliation: “I understand more of my father than I ever did when he was alive. I've forgiven him a lot.” The next book is about him — the UCLA Japan scholar who lost his security clearance to McCarthyism for being insufficiently anti-communist about China.• From Boomtown to The Fire Agent. What a songwriter brings to a 624-page epic: reliability — a working lyricist learns he can “write a page on demand” — and orchestration, since composing instrumental music means keeping track of characters the way you track an orchestra, knowing what each instrument cannot play. Baerwald's formation was the émigré Los Angeles of a breakfast joint on the Pacific Coast Highway where his surf crew gathered mornings — the same tables once shared by Duke Kahanamoku, Bertolt Brecht, and Stravinsky, in the Santa Monica neighborhood of Thomas Mann, on the street where James Dean later lived. Brecht was always his favorite lyricist, a secret he kept: in Los Angeles, admit you want to write songs like Brecht and “they lock you up in a padded room.” The German Jewish musical tradition that fled to his hometown now flows, a generation on, back into prose.• The Music of Fascism. The novel's present-tense purpose: fascist movements “have a very limited vocabulary,” and sometimes it's easier to hear how stupid it is from the mouths of foreigners. The mechanisms — how such movements are funded, how they function, what they do with total power — were identical in Germany, Japan, and Italy, and the contemporary echoes are “impossible to avoid. They're identical.” All three countries ended as rubble. In Japan, where prime minister Takaichi stands in the lineage of Kishi Nobusuke and Nanking denial persists, the conservatives will object; Baerwald hopes to spark debates. And asked what neo-fascism sounds like, he composed it: Kundera's kitsch — the child in the field, the tear on the cheek, “sanitized absurdities because the truth is so bloody awful” — rendered as a music-box melody gradually tortured by Ligeti dissonance, resolving into the Shepard tone: an audio illusion of endless ascent that never arrives. “That's how I would picture fascists: this never-satisfied, dissonant climb to nothing… to ruin.” About the Guest David Baerwald is an award-winning singer-songwriter, composer, and recording artist, best known fo...

Thập niên 1980 được xem là thời kỳ hoàng kim của các thần tượng nhạc pop Nhật Bản. Trong số này, có ca sĩ kiêm diễn viên, Masahiko Kondō đồng thời ông là một tay đua xe chuyên nghiệp nổi tiếng. Bài hát gắn liền với tên tuổi của ông chính là « Yūyake no Uta » (Khúc ca chiều tà), còn được gọi là « Thiên thiên khuyết ca ». Trong chương trình tuần này, có liên khúc Tịch dương chi ca với nhạc phẩm Hạnh phúc nơi nào. Thập niên 1980 được xem là thời kỳ hoàng kim của các thần tượng nhạc pop Nhật Bản. Trong số này, có ca sĩ kiêm diễn viên, Masahiko Kondō đồng thời ông là một tay đua xe chuyên nghiệp nổi tiếng. Bài hát gắn liền với tên tuổi của ông chính là « Yūyake no Uta » (Khúc ca chiều tà), còn được gọi là « Thiên thiên khuyết ca ». Trong chương trình tuần này, có liên khúc Tịch dương chi ca với nhạc phẩm Hạnh phúc nơi nào. Sinh trưởng (1964) tại Yokohama, tỉnh Kanagawa, Masahiko Kondō khởi đầu sự nghiệp ca hát và diễn xuất vào cuối thập niên 1970, thời ông gia nhập công ty Johnny & Associates, một trong những tập đoàn giải trí quan trọng của Nhật Bản. Thời niên thiếu, ông là thành viên của bộ ba Tanokin Trio (cùng với hai ngôi sao khác là Toshihiko Tahara và Yoshio Nomura). Nhóm này đã gặt hái được khá nhiều thành công nhờ phim truyền hình và show ca nhạc. Vào năm 17 tuổi, Masahiko Kondō rời khỏi nhóm và chính thức ra mắt đĩa đơn solo đầu tiên (Sneaker Blues). Ca khúc này ngay lập tức đứng đầu bảng xếp hạng Oricon, ông trở thành nghệ sĩ trẻ tuổi nhất giành lấy vị trí quán quân ngay từ khi ra mắt đĩa hát đầu tay. Trong suốt thập niên 1980, Masahiko Kondō ghi âm hàng loạt bản hit đình đám như « Gingiragin ni Kuchiganai » và « Foolish ». Nhưng khi nhắc đến những giai điệu ăn khách của giọng ca này từng được chuyển sang lời Việt, tác phẩm nổi tiếng và có sức ảnh hưởng sâu rộng nhất chính là ca khúc « Yūyake no Uta » (Khúc ca chiều tà) do Koji Makaino và Akira Otsu sáng tác vào năm 1989. Ngoài xứ hoa anh đào, giai điệu « Yūyake no Uta » còn thành công trên thị trường châu Á nhờ được phóng tác nhiều lần sang tiếng Hoa, lập kỷ lục số bán qua hai phiên bản nhạc pop tiếng Quảng Đông tại Hồng Kông (Cantopop). Đầu tiên là nhạc phẩm « Thiên thiên khuyết ca » của Trần Tuệ Nhàn và kế đến nữa là « Tịch dương chi ca » của Mai Diễm Phương. Năm 1988, vào lúc Trần Tuệ Nhàn chuẩn bị giã từ làng nhạc, hãngđĩa PolyGram đã cho phát hành một số ca khúc « chia tay » người hâm mộ, trong đó có nhạc phẩm « Thiên thiên khuyết ca » (Muôn ngàn bài hát) do tác giả Lâm Chấn Cường đặt lời tiếng Quảng Đông và hoàn chỉnh vào đầu năm 1989. Cảm xúc trầm lắng u buồn, cùng giai điệu từ biệt vấn vương đã giúp bài hát này thành công nhanh chóng trên thị trường. Còn trong trường hợp của Mai Diễm Phương, vào thời ấy, cô đang quay tập ba của bộ phim « Bản sắc anh hùng » (A better tomorrow III) và do Mai Diễm Phương lúc bấy giờ có quan hệ tình cảm với nam danh ca Nhật Bản Masahiko Kondō (người ghi âm bản nhạc gốc), cho nên cô mới đề nghị lấy bài hát này làm ca khúc chủ đề cho bộ phim. Tác giả Trần Thiếu Kỳ đã viết lại thành nhạc phẩm « Tịch dương chi ca » (Bài ca hoàng hôn) và chỉnh sửa lời bài hát sao cho phù hợp với cốt truyện. Dù có cùng một giai điệu gốc và được phát hành hầu như vào cùng một thời điểm, nhưng cả hai bản cover « Thiên thiên khuyết ca » của Trần Tuệ Nhàn (Priscilla Chan) và « Tịch dương chi ca » của Mai Diễm Phương (Anita Mui) đều trở thành những nhạc phẩm kinh điển của dòng nhạc pop tiếng Quảng Đông. Một chi tiết thú vị khác là nam ca sĩ Trương Quốc Vinh (Leslie Cheung) cũng từng hát lại bài này, cho dù anh không xuất hiện trong tập phim thứ 3 của « Bản sắc anh hùng », bên cạnh Mai Diễm Phương, Châu Nhuận Phát và Lương Gia Huy. Khi du nhập vào Việt Nam vào đầu thập niên 1990, ca khúc đã được đặt thêm nhiều lời Việt khác nhau. Bài đầu tiên có tựa đề « Tan vỡ » là của tác giả Minh Tâm do Cẩm Ly & Tài Linh thể hiện. Lời thứ nhì « Chuyện tình ta tan vỡ » là của tác giả Nhật Ngân. Đây là phiên bản lời Việt quen thuộc nhất với người hâm mộ, từng được nhiều giọng ca nổi tiếng như Mỹ Tâm, Quang Hà, Mai Tiến Dũng và gần đây hơn nữa là Hà Nhi và Quốc Thiên đều có hát lại. Phiên bản thứ ba « Chỉ có em trong tim » là của tác giả Khúc Lan, qua phần trình bày của Ý Nhi và Kenny Thái, dựa theo phiên bản tiếng Anh « There's only you in my heart ». Trong bản gốc, Masahiko Kondō nhìn lại những mối tình sâu đậm đã qua cũng như những thăng trầm trong cuộc đời. Cảnh vật trong ánh tịch dương năm nào vẫn chưa thay đổi, chỉ có tâm hồn khi vắng một người, mới càng cảm thấy đơn côi. Hoàng hôn vắng, tình đã xa Bốn mùa thu đông xuân hạ Khi xưa mát dịu chiều tà Nay sao rát bỏng làn da Tưởng chừng nắng còn trên má Ngờ đâu ướt đẫm lệ nhòa
Thập niên 1980 được xem là thời kỳ hoàng kim của các thần tượng nhạc pop Nhật Bản. Trong số này, có ca sĩ kiêm diễn viên, Masahiko Kondō đồng thời ông là một tay đua xe chuyên nghiệp nổi tiếng. Bài hát gắn liền với tên tuổi của ông chính là « Yūyake no Uta » (Khúc ca chiều tà), còn được gọi là « Thiên thiên khuyết ca ». Trong chương trình tuần này, có liên khúc Tịch dương chi ca với nhạc phẩm Hạnh phúc nơi nào. Thập niên 1980 được xem là thời kỳ hoàng kim của các thần tượng nhạc pop Nhật Bản.

Bài hát gắn liền với tên tuổi của ông chính là « Yūyake no Uta » (Khúc ca chiều tà), còn được gọi là « Thiên thiên khuyết ca ». Trong chương trình tuần này, có liên khúc Tịch dương chi ca với nhạc phẩm Hạnh phúc nơi nào. Sinh trưởng (1964) tại Yokohama, tỉnh Kanagawa, Masahiko Kondō khởi đầu sự nghiệp ca hát và diễn xuất vào cuối thập niên 1970, thời ông gia nhập công ty Johnny & Associates, một trong những tập đoàn giải trí quan trọng của Nhật Bản. Thời niên thiếu, ông là thành viên của bộ ba Tanokin Trio (cùng với hai ngôi sao khác là Toshihiko Tahara và Yoshio Nomura). Nhóm này đã gặt hái được khá nhiều thành công nhờ phim truyền hình và show ca nhạc. Vào năm 17 tuổi, Masahiko Kondō rời khỏi nhóm và chính thức ra mắt đĩa đơn solo đầu tiên (Sneaker Blues). Ca khúc này ngay lập tức đứng đầu bảng xếp hạng Oricon, ông trở thành nghệ sĩ trẻ tuổi nhất giành lấy vị trí quán quân ngay từ khi ra mắt đĩa hát đầu tay. Trong suốt thập niên 1980, Masahiko Kondō ghi âm hàng loạt bản hit đình đám như « Gingiragin ni Kuchiganai » và « Foolish ». Nhưng khi nhắc đến những giai điệu ăn khách của giọng ca này từng được chuyển sang lời Việt, tác phẩm nổi tiếng và có sức ảnh hưởng sâu rộng nhất chính là ca khúc « Yūyake no Uta » (Khúc ca chiều tà) do Koji Makaino và Akira Otsu sáng tác vào năm 1989. Ngoài xứ hoa anh đào, giai điệu « Yūyake no Uta » còn thành công trên thị trường châu Á nhờ được phóng tác nhiều lần sang tiếng Hoa, lập kỷ lục số bán qua hai phiên bản nhạc pop tiếng Quảng Đông tại Hồng Kông (Cantopop). Đầu tiên là nhạc phẩm « Thiên thiên khuyết ca » của Trần Tuệ Nhàn và kế đến nữa là « Tịch dương chi ca » của Mai Diễm Phương. Năm 1988, vào lúc Trần Tuệ Nhàn chuẩn bị giã từ làng nhạc, hãngđĩa PolyGram đã cho phát hành một số ca khúc « chia tay » người hâm mộ, trong đó có nhạc phẩm « Thiên thiên khuyết ca » (Muôn ngàn bài hát) do tác giả Lâm Chấn Cường đặt lời tiếng Quảng Đông và hoàn chỉnh vào đầu năm 1989. Cảm xúc trầm lắng u buồn, cùng giai điệu từ biệt vấn vương đã giúp bài hát này thành công nhanh chóng trên thị trường. Còn trong trường hợp của Mai Diễm Phương, vào thời ấy, cô đang quay tập ba của bộ phim « Bản sắc anh hùng » (A better tomorrow III) và do Mai Diễm Phương lúc bấy giờ có quan hệ tình cảm với nam danh ca Nhật Bản Masahiko Kondō (người ghi âm bản nhạc gốc), cho nên cô mới đề nghị lấy bài hát này làm ca khúc chủ đề cho bộ phim.

LA BATUTA DE NOBUO UEMATSU | REJUGANDO Hay episodios que se graban y se publican inmediatamente. Y hay otros que se quedan guardados durante años esperando su momento. Este es uno de esos. En 2022 grabé en solitario esta Batuta de Nobuo Uematsu, un especial que nunca llegó a publicarse y que ahora recuperamos del archivo de Rejugando con la voz de RaffaValencia ¿Sabías que Nobuo Uematsu nunca estudió solfeo ni recibió formación musical formal? ¿O que llegó a trabajar para Square Soft prácticamente por una casualidad, después de que una trabajadora de la compañía coincidiera con él en una de aquellas reuniones de artistas que organizaba en su pequeña habitación de Yokohama? La primera pregunta que hizo al conocer la oportunidad fue tan sencilla como reveladora: «¿Dónde están las oficinas?». A partir de ahí comienza una historia que cambiaría para siempre la música de los videojuegos. En este episodio recorro la trayectoria de Uematsu desde sus primeros trabajos en NES y PC, pasando por Final Fantasy I, II y III, hasta la explosión musical de Final Fantasy IV, V y VI. Hablamos del nacimiento de Prelude, de los temas de batalla, de Terra's Theme, Dancing Mad y de la extraordinaria música de la ópera de Final Fantasy VI. Después llega PlayStation y con ella Final Fantasy VII, VIII, IX y X: Aerith's Theme, One-Winged Angel, Liberi Fatali, To Zanarkand y muchas otras melodías que se han quedado grabadas en la memoria de millones de jugadores. Pero la carrera de Uematsu no termina en Final Fantasy. También hablamos de Chrono Trigger, Front Mission, Chocobo's Dungeon, Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, The Last Story, Super Smash Bros. Brawl y otros proyectos que ayudan a comprender la dimensión de un compositor que terminó convirtiéndose en una de las grandes figuras de la música de videojuegos. También hay espacio para sus influencias, su pasión por el rock, The Black Mages, su relación con Hironobu Sakaguchi, su salida de Square Enix y su posterior trabajo como compositor freelance. Y hay una historia especialmente curiosa: durante toda su carrera, Uematsu reconoció haber sufrido un auténtico bloqueo creativo en una ocasión porque no conseguía entregar lo que el director quería. ¿El juego? No fue ningún Final Fantasy. Fue The Last Story para Wii. Repasamos también cómo sus composiciones fueron creciendo con la tecnología: desde las limitaciones de NES hasta las posibilidades de PlayStation 2 y las interpretaciones orquestales de Distant Worlds, donde el propio Uematsu consideraba que muchas de sus piezas alcanzaban finalmente la dimensión sonora que había imaginado. Un episodio grabado hace ya cuatro años, recuperado ahora tal y como nació: RaffaValencia hablando en solitario durante más de una hora y media sobre la vida, la obra y las melodías de Nobuo Uematsu, mientras repasamos algunas de las canciones más importantes de la historia del videojuego. Una mirada personal a un compositor que, sin haber aprendido las reglas de la música de la manera tradicional, consiguió crear algunas de las melodías que más recuerdos han acompañado a varias generaciones de jugadores. La Batuta de Nobuo Uematsu. Un episodio perdido de Rejugando con RaffaValencia que por fin sale del archivo.

For almost two decades, one patent decided which cameras could record RAW internally. This week it fell in Japan – and the company that brought it down is the last one you'd guess. On top of that, every major camera manufacturer reported numbers within days of each other: FUJIFILM's Imaging Division is now the group's biggest earner, Panasonic posted its best quarter in 41 years without any help from cameras, and GoPro is down to $27 million in cash while it looks for a buyer. Winners, losers, and a power shift nobody saw coming. This Episode is Sponsored by Hollyland.

Đất nước Brazil là nơi có đông đảo người Nhật định cư. Xuất thân từ cộng đồng hải ngoại, nhiều nghệ sĩ gốc Nhật đã thành danh nhờ tài nghệ sáng tác hay biểu diễn trên sân khấu. Đó là trường hợp của tay đàn ghi ta Mateus Asato, nhạc trưởng Naomi Munakata, tác giả Lisa Ono, ca sĩ Carlos Toshiki thành viên sáng lập nhóm Omega Tribe và nhất là Marcia, một trong những ngôi sao nhạc trẻ những năm 1990. Sinh trưởng tại thành phố São Paolo, Marcia xuất thân từ một gia đình người Nhật định cư tại Brazil từ nhiều đời qua. Vào năm 16 tuổi, cô bắt đầu sự nghiệp trong làng giải trí sau khi về hạng nhì nhân một cuộc thi tuyển lựa tài năng mới năm 1985 (Kayou Senshuken) với sự tài trợ của đài truyền hình TBS, thuộc tập đoàn truyền thông Tokyo Broadcasting System ở vùng Kantō. Do chưa đến tuổi trưởng thành, nên Marcia được ông nội đưa từ Brazil sang Nhật Bản học tập.Thời gian đầu, cô học hát dưới sự hướng dẫn của nhà soạn nhạc kỳ cựu Kosho Inomata và học lớp diễn xuất với thầy Sakamoto Fuyumi. Đầu năm 1989, Marcia vừa tròn 20 tuổi cho ra mắt đĩa hát đầu tay với tựa đề "Furimukeba Yokohama" (Nhìn lại Yokohama). Do hai tác giả đồng sáng tác : Kosho Inomata (nhạc) Eiji Takino (lời), đĩa đơn này đã mang về cho Marcia nhiều giải thưởng quan trọng, trong đó có giải dành cho Nghệ sĩ mới xuất sắc nhất trong năm (Nihon Record Taishou). Trong tiếng Việt, giai điệu này từng được tác giả Khúc Lan đặt lời thành nhạc phẩm "Mộng sầu cô đơn". Từ những năm 1990 trở đi, Marcia ngày càng trở nên nổi tiếng. Tên tuổi của cô được biết đến rộng rãi không những qua đĩa hát mà còn qua phim ảnh, show truyền hình, chương trình tạp kỹ hay các vở nhạc kịch. Còn trên phương diện âm nhạc, Marcia thành công với khá nhiều bài hát trích từ 12 album phòng thu thực hiện trong vòng hai thập niên liền (1989-2009). Trong số những bài hát ăn khách nhất của Marcia, ngoài nhạc phẩm "Mộng sầu cô đơn", còn có "My love goodbye" (Tạm biệt người tình) và nhất là "Dakishimete" (trong tiếng Nhật có nghĩa là Hãy ôm em). Bài này từng được chuyển sang tiếng Việt thành nhạc phẩm "Khi thành phố vắng anh". Một số nhà phê bình cho rằng lối thể hiện của Marcia mang nhiều ảnh hưởng của diva Đài Loan Đặng Lệ Quân, trong cách nhả chữ thanh thoát nhẹ nhàng, tao nhã tơ vương. Nhưng thật ra, Marcia lại chịu ảnh hưởng của thế hệ trước đó nữa, qua giọng ca thần tượng Hibari Misora, người mà Đặng Lệ Quân thường hay nghe thời niên thiếu. Một chi tiết thú vị là tên thật của danh ca Hibari Misora là Kazue Kato. Gia đình Marcia rất hâm mộ giọng ca này cho nên đã chọn tên thật của thần tượng để đặt cho cô con gái. Tên gọi đầy đủ của Marcia chính là Marcia Kazue Nishiie. Chi tiết thú vị thứ nhì là Marcia đã ra đời vào ngày 14 tháng Hai năm 1969. Do sinh nhật của cô trùng với ngày Lễ Tình nhân, cho nên Marcia thường hay nói đùa rằng không hiểu vì sao từ khi còn nhỏ, cô chỉ thích nghe và thích hát nhạc tình : Ngước mắt nhìn hoàng hôn Mà nghe tim chợt buồn Tình chẳng còn ham muốn Cho hồn càng buồn hơn Nhìn những hạt mưa tuôn Trên khung cửa mù sương Tương lai nhoà vết xoá Mờ chân trời yêu thương Nhịp mưa khúc nhạc buồn Điệu bossa phiền muộn Hãy cho nhau lần cuối Đắm đuối ngàn nụ hôn
In late April, an ex-Confederate ironclad arrives in Yokohama and threatens to throw what appears to be a tenuous peace into question. A naval hero who saw action on North Carolina rivers witnesses the arrival of his former nemesis in Japanese waters.

Câu chuyện phim theo chân nhân vật Mawar. Cuộc sống của Mawar đảo lộn sau cái chết của chị gái và sự xuất hiện của các thế lực siêu nhiên ma quái.

THE Presentations Japan Series by Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
Business storytelling is one of the great untapped advantages in professional presenting. Most executives compete in crowded markets, red oceans and data-heavy meetings, yet very few use stories well. That creates a blue ocean opportunity for leaders, salespeople and professionals who want to be remembered. Data, statistics and charts matter, but they rarely stay in the audience's mind by themselves. When information is wrapped inside a clear story, it becomes easier to understand, easier to remember and far more persuasive. In Japan, Asia-Pacific, Europe and the US, business audiences still respond to a good story because persuasion has never gone out of fashion. Why does storytelling matter in business presentations? Storytelling matters because it turns dry information into memorable, persuasive communication. Data can inform an audience, but stories help people remember, feel and act. Many business leaders still treat presentation delivery as fluff, smoke and mirrors. They believe the audience only wants facts, numbers and the latest update. Wrong. A presentation full of statistics can become crusty and dry, like week-old bread left outside. In boardrooms, sales meetings, investor updates and leadership town halls, the speaker must help the audience connect the dots. Stories create that connection by giving the facts a human shape. Do now: Do not just deliver data. Wrap the key information in a story so the audience can remember the message. What is the first step in building a business story? The first step is choosing the main characters because audiences need people to picture in their minds. A story without recognisable characters quickly becomes an abstract explanation. The characters might be the founder, CEO, CFO, senior leadership team, researchers, scientists, clients, suppliers or customers. If the audience already knows the person, even better. Mentioning Elon Musk, Akio Toyoda or a well-known internal executive immediately gives listeners a face to imagine. In a Japanese company, the founder's story or a client's struggle can carry strong emotional weight because relationships and reputation matter. Do now: Choose one or two main characters the audience can clearly visualise before building the rest of the story. How do presenters create context in a business story? Presenters create context by describing when, where and why the story is happening. The goal is to transport listeners into the scene so they can see what the speaker saw. Context needs guideposts. Was it last month or two years ago? Was it a snowy February morning in Sapporo, a brutal August day in Tokyo, a boardroom at headquarters, a hotel restaurant in Osaka, a convention in Singapore or a research lab in Yokohama? These details are not decoration. They paint word pictures. Without context, the audience hears information. With context, they enter the story. Do now: Add time, place, season and situation so the audience can mentally step into the business moment. Why do business stories need conflict or opportunity? Business stories need conflict or opportunity because tension is what keeps people listening. Every strong drama has stakes, obstacles and pressure, and business is full of all three. The antagonist may be the market, currency movement, competition, regulator, bank, supplier, customer, government policy or a technology shift. Supply chain disruption, Covid, the war in Ukraine, inflation, AI adoption and digital transformation all create business tension. Nokia facing the iPhone is a classic example of technological disruption changing the rules. In Japan, a shrinking labour force or slow digital transformation can also become the conflict driving the story. Do now: Identify the pressure point. Show what is at stake and why the audience should care now. How should a business story end? A business story needs an outcome because audiences feel unsatisfied when the story is left hanging. The ending may be positive, negative or unresolved, but it must give the listener closure. The outcome could be a win, a loss, a warning, a turning point or a current situation with an expected next step. In sales presentations, the ending may show how a client improved results. In leadership talks, it may show what the organisation learned. In investor briefings, it may explain what management expects next. The speaker must tie a ribbon around the story so the audience knows what the point was. Do now: Give every story a clear finish. Do not leave the audience wondering, "So what happened?" What insight should follow a business story? The insight is the business lesson the audience should take away and apply. A story without insight is entertainment; a story with insight becomes leadership communication. Audiences love learning from business disasters because failure reveals what to avoid. "How I lost $100 million" often sounds more compelling than "How I made $100 million" because people want the juicy train wreck and the warning signs. This does not mean leaders should be negative. It means they should extract practical lessons from both success and failure. The best business stories move from characters to context, conflict, outcome and insight. Do now: End by stating the lesson clearly. Tell executives, leaders or salespeople what they should do differently now. Final Summary Successful business storytelling is not mysterious. It has structure. Choose memorable characters, create vivid context, introduce conflict or opportunity, explain the outcome and finish with a practical insight. This structure helps presenters make data easier to remember and messages easier to act on. Every executive, salesperson and professional already has business stories inside them. Client wins, missed opportunities, market shocks, supply chain problems, leadership decisions and competitor moves all provide material. The key is not waiting for a perfect story. The key is learning how to structure the stories already sitting in front of you.

Breaking a few months of Chasing the Burn silence for a conversation with Swedish triathlon legend Lisa Norden.

Really enjoyed this one and look forward to bringing you more conversations this summer

John and Eric (fka Snazzy??) are back for another super packed episode of Wrestling Omakase! They start things off with some discussion of VOW's latest edition of the 30 Under 30 project- who they voted for that got lost in the honorable mentions, then as 30-16 dropped right when they started recording they go through that list as well. Plus, lots of discussion on young wrestlers and how different places do (or don't) develop them in general! Then it's on to a major topic from last week, as they talk the major news of NJPW's sale from Bushiroad to TV Asahi & Cyberagent, including a lot of things they think people are getting wrong about this topic so far.Then of course it's on to our show reviews, starting out with a STARDOM Korakuen show from 5/26 packed with major news: of course, Utami Hayashishita's sudden return to the company being the big one, but also a major title change on top. They break it all down as well as the sudden burst of unit movement from this past weekend as well. Then it's on to NJPW BOSJ Nights 8-10 (5/27, 5/29 & 5/30) which were kind of the dog days of the tournament, though there were still a couple highlights (and some real lowlights as well).Afterward they talk a trio of shows that all took place on May 31st, starting with the King of DDT finals from Korakuen Hall. They break down a somewhat surprising winner, whether or not this was a mistake, if DDT's young talent is being pushed fast enough, "vibes" and more. Then it's over to Marvelous to talk their latest Shin Kiba 1st Ring show, featuring some notable foreign talent, Chigusa Nagayo's divisive commentary (Nicole made a run in for this part- she is not a fan!), and what's coming up next for them. Finally, it's back to the land of Ice Ribbon to discuss their show from Yokohama that John was particularly invested in the result of, as their favorite wrestler in the promotion tries to earn a title shot on a show they're going to next month! Also somewhere in here we rank the Omakase co-hosts by who would beat who in a FIGHT, so definitely don't miss that!Joshi-ing Around podcast: https://redcircle.com/shows/1309343e-3781-4750-9209-4efbc9976ab6Social Suplex newsletter: https://www.socialsuplex.com/newsletter/Follow Wrestling Omakase on Twitter: http://twitter.com/wrestleomakaseFollow John on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/justoneenby.bsky.socialAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Send us Fan MailIn this wonderful episode, Machan Taylor traces her journey from postwar Japan to the world stage with Pink Floyd and Sting. Uprooted from an idyllic childhood in Yokohama, Taylor was thrust into a New Jersey suburb where she didn't speak the language and felt utterly alone. And yet she learned to turn devastation into song. And wrote her book, 'Naked Out Loud' is a meditation on identity, perseverance, and the courage it takes to come to terms with, and reveal one's true self. Machan speaks from the heart, talking openly about her feeling of 'not being enough' and discussing the benefits she gained from her discoveries with psychedelics. She bravely invites us to ride along with her through her life story!Site: www.machantaylor.comBook: https://a.co/d/0fLrLIndSupport the show

Two New Orleans connections, one world's fair, and a conversation worth the wait. ------ About the Krewe ------ The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.

En enero de 1945 los aliados intuían que la guerra entraba en su recta final, aunque nadie acertaba a fijar la fecha del desenlace. El teatro europeo de operaciones parecía más cerca del final que el del Pacífico. Alemania estaba cercada por el este, el oeste y el sur, mientras que el archipiélago japonés todavía resistía. Aún no se habían librado las batallas de Iwo Jima y Okinawa, por lo que el alto mando estadounidense calculaba que aquello no terminaría hasta mediado el año 1946 a un coste muy elevado en vidas. Lo que sí dominaban los aliados sin discusión era el aire, y de ese dominio surgiría la mayor campaña de bombardeo estratégico de la historia. En el Reino Unido Arthur Harris, al frente del Bomber Command, era partidario del bombardeo de área nocturno, concebido expresamente para incendiar ciudades enteras y romper así la moral de los civiles. Los estadounidense preferían el bombardeo de precisión diurno sobre objetivos industriales bien elegidos con anterioridad. Disponían de ciertos avances como la mira Norden y contaban con buenos cazas de escolta como los Mustang que protegían a los bombarderos. En la Conferencia de Yalta celebrada en febrero Roosevelt y Churchill decidieron desatar una campaña de bombardeos que aliviase presión a los soviéticos en el frente del este impidiendo que el ejército alemán pudiese desplazar tropas y pertrechos hasta allí. Ese mismo mes atacaron con furia Berlín el día 3 y Dresde entre los días 13 y 14 con tres oleadas combinadas que desataron una tormenta de fuego que en su centro superó los 1.500 grados. Unas 25.000 personas murieron en el bombardeo, pero no sería el único. Le siguieron otras ciudades como Pforzheim, Wurzburgo y Magdeburgo que fueron destruidas, incluso en mayor medida que Dresde. Pero lo que marcó la diferencia no fue tanto la destrucción de las ciudades como los ataques sobre la infraestructura ferroviaria, algo que terminó paralizando por completo el Reich. En el Pacífico el cambio vino de la mano de un joven general, Curtis LeMay, que en enero se puso al mando de los B-29 destacados en las islas Marianas. Los fuertes vientos en altura hacían muy difícil el bombardero de precisión sobre Japón. LeMay ordenó volar de noche, a baja altura, sin armamento defensivo a bordo de los aviones y con bodegas repletas de bombas incendiarias M-69. La noche del 9 al 10 de marzo la Operación Meetinghouse incendió 41 kilómetros cuadrados de la ciudad de Tokio y mató entre 80.000 y 125.000 personas en lo que fue el episodio bélico más mortífero no de la guerra, sino de toda la historia. Nagoya, Osaka, Kobe, Yokohama y Kawasaki sufrieron idéntico destino, y luego decenas de ciudades medianas. Pero, pese a la devastación, Japón no se rendía. En Washington se plantearon invadir las islas principales con una gran operación anfibia, pero estimaban que el coste sería altísimo, de hasta un millón de bajas. Fue entonces cuando recurrieron a la bomba atómica que habían desarrollado con el Proyecto Manhattan. El 6 de agosto cayó la primera en Hiroshima, tres días más tarde cayó otra sobre Nagasaki. Entre medias los soviéticos entraron en Manchuria. El día 15 el emperador Hirohito anunció la rendición incondicional. Esta tormenta de fuego plantea preguntas incómodas. Los bombardeos contribuyeron a la victoria si, pero las víctimas civiles superaron las 650.000 en ambos teatros. Harris y LeMay fueron condecorados, y los tribunales de Núremberg y Tokio prefirieron no abrir ese melón. Sucesivos acuerdos sobre el alcance de este tipo de bombardeo vinieron después, pero el debate sigue abierto.

The crew recaps a loaded weekend — Sam Long drops a jaw-dropping 1:49:32 bike split at Gulf Coast, but with the swim cut to 600 meters, does it even count? That debate spirals into the week's big topic: are triathlon records a real metric, and should the sport's organizations formalize a validated system with real incentives? Plus a preview for Yokohama and Aix-en-Provence and a full round of hot takes.
