Favoriting The Mike Rogers Show: Playlist from October 6, 2021 Favoriting

Mike Rogers's avatar View Mike Rogers's profile Favoriting

Playing the best of Japanese Indies and underground (and other stuff). Music you will hear nowhere else! Mike has been fired from every Tokyo FM station at least once and some of them 4 times! I wear it as a stinky badge of honor because FM in Japan sucks so much. Tune in! Be there!

what's in a hopey?
Avatar 5:25pm
Mike Rogers:

There are two kinds of Hopey (In English it is spelled "Hoppy" but in Japanese it is the same. Light and dark Hopey. I drink the dark Hopey because I's got soul!
Avatar 5:27pm
Mike Rogers:

After the war, refrigeration (ice) was very rare. So, a company made Hopey an a non-alcohoic beer, and the customers started mixing it with Korean Sho-Chu. It tastes like beer sort of. Now, it is considered a very healthy alcoholic drink.

but are there insults in Japanese? Offensive words or phrases? Or is everyone so polite?

They might say, "Baka!" which means stupid. I would wager this is the most common insult Japanese use.

They would also insult each other but by comments that demean. "He wasn't good in school." etc.
