Upgrade to notes on your ipod. For the past three lessons, key vocab is included in the lesson description section of your ipod. To access this feature - once the podcast has started click the center, white button twice.
Today we introduced a new format. The number of the vocab, time in the lesson that it can be found! 
! The word in all three forms and the meaning! Example below:
1. (1:07) Kakkou ii・かっこういい・格好いい - Literally translated – nice appearance. Meaning – cool (used for clothes, cars, motor cycles, etc.) good-looking, (You’ll hear a chorus of them when Brad Pitt comes to town.)
Should be interpreted as follows: first key vocab, said at 1:07 of the podcast, all three forms and the meaning! Enjoy.

Thank you again Alex!

I found this podcast by browsing the top 100 podcasts on iTunes. I subscribed to it, not expecting very much from it, but boy, was i wrong. I think this is the best find i have ever found on the NET. 
I have been trying to learn Japanese as my 3rd language, and this is just what i needed. Thanks a lot for doing this guys.

This is very neat now! 
I liked a lot this new visual and it’s much more easier to find the classes now. And thank you for the PDFs! Before you did it I was copying the text and transforming them in PDF and now I don’t need to do that anymore! Thank you.
Hey, how about a class about candies? The only candy name that I know in Japanese is chocolate.
And please keep the wonderful work that you are doing!

Peter-san,
Thanx so much for mentioning my email in your show, although my name is actually pronounced like “Shannon” with a ‘ch’ sound 
Also, to people out there who are trying to learn Japanese, please please don’t think it’s a devil tongue or it’s the hardest language because that’s only going to be a big mental block. Learning any languages takes time and if you want to learn Japanese, here is the best place to start!
Anyway, have a nice day minasan 
chanun

Kit-Kat- actually had a grape one today!
TrouserEnthusiast-san! ありがとうございます！Thanks for stopping bye! Please stick around, and please thank the person who mentioned us on BigDaikon! よろしくお願いします。
Nemuichanun-san, すみませんでした！I had a feeling I was not going to get the right sounds, apologies. As for the mention, our pleasure! That email was 最高(saikou).
PS, if you view the message board through rikai.com, you can read the Kanji by scrolling over them!

Thank you very much for your time to teach me Japanese. This would be my third language 
. I need to learn it because I am studying English interpretation and my mother tongue is Spanish (I´m from Buenos Aires). This, for sure, will help me strengthen my knowledge. Thank you again. I met you by chance on the newspapers and have just joined you. Good luck!
