Description

It's our 50th Episode on the Weekly Stan Up! Thank you to everyone who has been tuned in to our conversations about Asian pop culture. This week, Mika's friend Cam comes on our show to share her journey going from an exchange student in Osaka, to returning for an (intense) internship in Hiroshima after graduating, and then back again to Japan to take up her post-grad studies and now working there full-time. 

More importantly, she talks about how living in Japan broke and exceeded her expectations from her longtime interest in Japanese culture. A must-listen for anyone looking to live in Japan and who wants to know what it's really like! 

Because we lost track of time talking with Cam about her stories in Japan, we've decided to have part 2 come out next week! Stay tuned for more stories and our vibe check with her! 

If you have suggestions for the show or would like to share your fandom and come on as a guest, DM us on Instagram or email us at jointheweeklystanup@gmail.com.

Check out all our recommended songs at the end of each episode + all the songs on our vibe checks on the show's official Spotify playlist.
