Podcast REBOOT: Ep 1 “Coffee Beans and Slick Machines”

The Tokyo Cheapo Podcast is BACK after a sizable hiatus. In our pilot episode, we’re joined by Alvin Cheung of ABC Coffee, Hapnick, and Tokyo Keyboards. Alvin takes us through a whirlwind of stories, from coffee roaster handshakes to Blade Runner-like dystopians to playing with keyboards.

Also introducing a new segment – Tokyo Stories! Every episode the podcast team will share some of their own stories – salacious, otherworldly and everything in between. This week Chris tells us why he loves going to the doctor in Japan, Taryn discovers a love hotel-style bar in the middle of Shibuya and Greg talks aliens.
