Thinking in Japanese Podcast

In this podcast, I speak about a variety of topics in Japanese. I speak Japanese slowly and as much as simply. Of course, sometimes I have to use difficult vocabulary so I have vocabulary lists for each episode. On the Patreon page, you can check my podcast episodes, scripts, bonus contents, and Japanese newsletters. Let's learn and use Japanese together! https://www.patreon.com/thinking_in_japanese
