Ep 45. A Game for Life

I reflect on the 50th episode milestone and where this podcast has been and gone since it started. Then I talk about some of the glaring differences in everyday Japan that contrast to what I am used to back home and in most 'western' countries Ive been to.

The danger of the 'Konbini'.

Practical inventions, use of space and simplicity all come to mind when trying to describe Japanese ingenuity. I describe a few examples of why Japan is ahead of the rest. Also my interesting experiences in a hostel.

I've just arrived in Japan and here are my initial thoughts on the culture, food and social norms. Don't forget to follow!

It's been a while...so whats been going on and what's next? I talk about my plans for this next journey.

That hectic time of Christmas & New Year comes around again, is it all just overhyped and unnecessary?

How Golf is becoming my new 'thing'. I talk about my first run out with the old golf clubs I cleaned up recently and how I had to explain to someone about the magic of traffic lights.

The epic story of my appearance on 'Quizone', the Irish game show back in the 2000s and a recollection of a reverend with lots of showmanship.

A look at the team selection and the overall event that will be hosted in Croke Park.

Restoring an old set of golf clubs and how my two week trip to the Outer Hebrides went.
