Originally, the magazine requested the interview was limited and most of the interesting things said or heard would be cut out, so as a condition of the interview, we asked to be re-published in the on-demand media. As a result, we were able to interview a total of 56 people!

Starting with people in the media industry, I have now had conversations with people from all industries without any boundaries. For the past several years, I have been meeting and talking with people I want to meet spontaneously, even without a request.

It expands my worldview, and I often encounter new projects from people who read this dialogue. It is also highly effective in promoting the interlocutor’s new book. This is because the readers are all my intelligent followers!

Now, since some people have said that text alone is not enough, we have decided to start distributing a video version (YouTube) of Talked.jp.

Below is the trailer. Enjoy!
