Mina-san, what’s the craziest hairstyle you’ve ever seen? Have you ever had a crazy hairstyle yourself?

Your hair is blushing?

I had a feeling part 2 would be like this. Part 1 was just a little too normal for JPod. I like the barber’s ほほ！ So funny….

Hey, at least now we know if we ever need a hair cut in Harajuku, we should avoid that salon with the chickens and…erm…the elephant…

(seriously, WHO picks the background tracks!)

Normal? Who wants normal?

JP101/Listeners!

Javizyさん、

You are right that in the case of your sample sentence 分かってりゃ is a construction of 分かっていれば. ～ていれば is often constructed to ～てれば in daily conversation, and sometimes to ～てりゃ, which is very casual and mainly used by men.
れば is constructed to りゃ, so it doesn’t matter whether it’s after て or not, as in the example below.
もっと　かっこよければ ⇒ もっと　かっこよけりゃ

Mayumi

sound so strange… a customer in for a haircut and fainted? what happen?

Thanks Mayumiさん, I’ll be sure to look out for the other variations in future. I hope you weren’t suggesting anything by that example sentence though

Kitty, it’s Mr Tweeney, Krusty’s monkey assistant from The Simpsons. He does pretty well for himself, maybe Tarou should consider a career in showbiz.

It’s sooooo funny, right?
I can’t wait to see their real hair!!

Hi,

Would it be possible to get a translation and explanation(!) when there`s a joke at the beginning of the podcast?

Thanks,

A.

Ianさん,
Thanks for pointing this out!
