It’s nice to change the intro, but I’ll miss the old one… I’ve heard it so many times during the last year…

Nice with some changes but personally I think the theme is a little too long, but that might just be me. It was good though.

Nice Intro, and glad to keep abit of old version. Very Very Nice! 
Marky-san, BOA is Korean singer who made Japanese album, it’s kinda funny you put as her J-Pop catagory. I haven’t check her single album though, now I will pay attention with your voice!

i’m only on SO REAL (Army Slick’s Scratch Build Vocal Mix), and only in the beginning.
as for the new jpod theme, glad everyone is cool with it, the length and sounds are the same as the original just twisted it a little. what can i say? i’m a jpod junkie!

Chiba Lotte Marines!! My team!! 
(They won the Japan Series in 2005 at the same time that my other team, the Chicago White Sox, won the world series. But, as you guessed, I am a “yuge” baseball fan.

Hey Marky-san!
We kind of know each other. Through a fellow friend named Ash. Nice rework on the intro. I feel like I can get into the podcast even more now! Look forward to checking out some of those parties.
Hi everyone else!
Self-intro due here. I’m Josh Keller. I do English narrations on NHK and
and am a guest speaker on KISO Eigo 2 for 2007. Also, I co-founded a company called Malpha Productions. We interview Hollywood stars when they visit Japan and around the world and you can see our first interview at the Spiderman 3 premier if you go to http://www.eigaseikatu.com
I’m a subscriber and use this podcast to help me learn Japanese to communicate in business, especially in the studio room during radio show recordings. It’s a great help and I’m glad to be a member.
よろしくお願いします

While I’m not much of a fan of dance/house music, the new intro is miles better than the old one. So as one musician to another, グッドジョブ

How was the name again? Naomi Campbell? 
Oh, I am sure the Campbell would envy that voice, Naomi-sensei. Excuse my foul joke; you must be tired of it. And welcome to the family. I can’t wait to hear one of your lessons!
Anyways, wonderful show. As always.

I know of BoA. She has this one song that was rmixed really incredibly well. forget the name of it. I was surprised to see it was a jpop diva behind it. Way to go markystar.
and, when i come over with my NYC crew in October…we are ALL about the clubbin! we’ll definitely have to pin you down for some hot places to go.
really interesting to here about Naomi-sensei and Markstar.

Sorry to be negative, guys, but I hated the intro. When I first heard it, I honestly thought something was severely wrong with my iPod or the podcast…it sounded like there were multiple audio tracks completely out of synch with each other. Sorry, Marky…I don’t mean to be so negative, but I gotta give my honest feedback - I sincerely hope this intro doesn’t stay long.
