Unpacking Japan · What Japanese comedy school is REALLY like · 31 Jul 2026 podcast

Suddenly you bring all that experience back to a country where comedy is quite different.

The audience is quite different.

Is it something you want to do more of, perform more in the US or overseas?

And I see your train of thought is back.

And in the States, it's more like a group effect when people think it's funny, someone starts laughing, other people laugh along, but it's not necessarily clear what are they laughing at and why they're laughing.

But with those different audiences and different type of comedy, is it something you want to explore more performing back in the States, Canada, North America, maybe Europe?

Or do you want to kind of still focus here on what's happening in Japan?

Not actual comedy, but... Culturally localized comedy, so to say.

So looking back at your journey now, nearly 11 years here, and you kind of came with no plan just to discover a little bit the cultural background of your mother's side of the family, discovered comedy and just like dove straight into that.

How do you look back at your experience here in Japan?

Have you kind of found a way, in a way, what you were looking for and kind of found a place you want to establish yourself?

Or are you still discovering a lot of things every day?

So how do you practice your movement on stage?

And still enjoying your sample with the beer in the evening and the Tokyo summer nights that are coming up.

Some things never change.

For sure.

Dan, we covered a lot of topics.

Yeah.

A lot of your journey.
