Back in time: On The Brink In Sapporo!

Chris and Pete will return this Monday for a debrief on Chris' super secret mission, and probably a load of Alex James from Blur chat too - in the meantime here's a rather interesting slice of Abroad In Japan history!


Mere weeks before Japan closed down for nigh on two years to tourists, Chris and Pete shared a hotel room in Sapporo and recorded a podcast. And here's another chance to hear it!
