Monday Late Show Episode 421

Matsuko is still unable to be in the studio but assured that next week he will come. The first topic was "Japan's Small Debate Point" where they checked on problems such as peeing in bathtub, using dating apps, cashless payment, and hair removal cream usage. Next was the investigation of low-viewership Youtube videos a ventriloquist who records video in secret and Tsugaru dialect truck driver (featuring Mr. Sugo from Ep. 200). They also checked the newest videos of KENTA (Ep. 401), the crossdressing shooter (Ep. 403), and the Morioka Zebra fan (Ep. 312). After that they asked people on the streets about their job. They found a worker at rights management company, a food product researcher, a magician, and one Johnny's Jr. member (Yabana Rei). Lastly they showed local problems that did not make it to Ep. 417 such as a statue which looked like Prime Minister Suga and foreigners who could not travel back home. Just before the ending, Matsuko shared a story where a Chinese and a Korean person said to him that they learned "real Japan" from this show. (Source: Griffin Seannery at kisskh)
