Happy New Year to all KONA RADIO listeners! This is Hakase. In episode 82, we talk about everyone’s favorite topic. Yes, climbing shoes.

77: DOkuganryu Radio
I’m going to borrow the sound source of the episode where Hakase was invited as a guest on a friend’s channel, and broadcast it exactly as it was.
We were invited to a podcast called “Dokuganryu Channel,” which is run by a person who is very closely related to our company, and the factory manager and landlord have also appeared on it in the past.

It’s been 2 years and 3 months since we had a Vitaly-sensei! So we had a meeting to report on the recent situation. I’m sorry that it was very difficult to listen to Hakase’s broken English, but I hope that Vitaly-sensei’s beautiful English could neutralize it a little.
