This is a recording I made of students during clean up time at the end of the day. I walked up and down the hallway and went into different classrooms. You can hear students talking, cleaning, writing on the board, and other things. It might sound like a bunch of noise, but it's part of my everyday life here. I especially love to hear the sound of my students laughing. I am happy to say they do a lot of that. (Be careful when listening with headphones because some parts get a little loud)

This is the Exchange Students second week in Japan. They talk about getting their uniforms, some strange things they have seen and heard, their first earthquake, and more.

Two exchange students, Gokce and Steven, from Australia talk about their first week in Japan, homestay, and school. They will be giving their unique insight on what it's like to be a high school student in Japan. I hope to interview them every couple of weeks to see how they are doing and find out what they are experiencing.

We did an interview with the musical artist Takako Fujimoto. She was here in Shizuoka promoting her first album "Feel It". She was nice enough to sit down for a few minutes and do an interview with us.
Takako has a great sound and even if you don't understand Japanese you can still enjoy her music. Here are the sample tracks that we played at the beginning and end of our show. Please don't forget to leave your comments.

3 Monkeys Radio is new to podcasting, but not to broadcasting. We have been doing a show on live365 for a year now. Since we have a lot of new listeners and this is our 1 year anniversay, we thought we would put up some of our past shows.
This is a show we did back in May. We like to do our show from different locations. In this show we were at an outdoor cafe. The whole show was about 75 minutes. It has been trimmed down for this special posting.
