Nihongo To English blends language learning and stand-up humor as comedians Michelle MaliZaki and Michael Allen CPA (also known as GoatVsFish) explore the quirks of Japanese and English—words that don’t translate, culture shocks, and why politeness can melt you faster than ice cream. Each episode moves freely between the two languages, revealing how funny and human bilingual life can be. You’ll learn phrases, hear authentic conversation, and laugh about everything from Japanese idols and snacks to Ken-son humility and mistranslated signs. Perfect for fans of Japanese culture, bilingual comedy, or learning Japanese the fun way.
