An update and announcement about my future plans for this podcast.

This episode we go over the life of one of our favourite historical figures of all time: Date Masamune. Known as the One-Eyed Dragon and as one the greatest daimyos in Tohoku. Date helped turn the tide of the civil war, and helped bring art and culture to the Edo Era. (And we have to apologize for the sound quality in this episode. Due to a naughty puppy being present there is some background noise at times. Sorry!)

We share some more dark and fascinating stories from Japanese mythology. Kiyohime - Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned ;) The Emperor Sutoku - Be careful when returning gifts - even more careful when burning them :s

Matsushima, one of the three most beautiful places in Japan, and one of our favourite places to visit. Let's look at the history of one of the most fascinating places in Japan.
