Abroad in Japan
What NOT to do on a Japanese Train
Whether you're a regular commuter in Japan, or you're planning a big trip across the country, this week we're preparing you with everything you need to remember not to do on the train. From blocking doors, to how you should sit, consider this episode a comprehensive education on using Japanese trains. We're also asking important questions about 'gran class' on the bullet train - how far do the seats recline? What's the free stuff like?
Plus, Chris has finally received a Christmas present from Pete, and it's... erotic. Choo choo!
