Tokyo Tales - The Simon and Martina Podcast

We're Simon and Martina. We run a YouTube channel where we travel around Japan and the world. There are some stories we can't film. For those, we'll share our Tokyo Tales.

  1. 26

    Tokyo Tales: Back from Canada

    We spent a month in Canada and had a very different experience than what we're used to. So, for this podcast, we'll tell you what we did in Canada, and try to figure out how to do this video shooting thing again :D

    Tokyo Tales: Staying Playful

    We had a good question from a user who wants to know how to stay playful as an adult, especially since everyone around them is getting so serious as they get older. What's our secret? We'll talk about it for this week's podcast!

  3. 24

    Tokyo Tales: Check in On Yourself

    If everything's going well, but you're not feeling alright, is there something wrong with you, or could there be something else at play? Especially if you're in Chronic Pain, how does that affect how you perceive the world?

  4. 23

    Tokyo Tales: Chasing Sunsets

    We followed some gorgeous sunsets, and ended up in a whole new area we've never encountered, and had some dope experiences.

  5. 22

    Tokyo Tales: What Is Workaholism?

    We don't know the answer to this question, but we're pretty sure we had an issue with workaholism back in Korea. Are we still workaholics now? That's what we're unsure about.

  6. 21

    Tokyo Tales: What We Did in Sweden

    We'll be talking about our trip to Malmö Sweden, why we were there, and what we did for this week's podcast!

  7. 20

    Tokyo Tales: Our 12 Year Wedding Anniversary!

    We've been married for 12 years. 12 years! To celebrate, we went to Guam, and we've got some stories to tell about people swimming in full clothing, and threatening a man with a knife.

  8. 19

    Tokyo Tales: Behaving Oddly

    For this week's podcast we're talking extensively about RuPaul's Drag Race, season 11, and why it's important to Martina. It really is. Spoilers about this episode, so be warned!

    Tokyo Tales: A Rough Update

    Things are going to have to change over the next month, it seems. Martina's hand is worse than expected...

  10. 17

    Tokyo Tales: We're Not Soul Mates

    We think the idea of soul mates is giving people the wrong idea of what it takes to make a relationship work. Happily Ever After doesn't really tell people how much work goes into a marriage. So, we'll talk a bit about what we do, what you don't see, and our thoughts on marriage counselling in this week's episode!

  11. 16

    Tokyo Tales: Should Influencers Be More Genuine?

    We've been doing this social media thing for a long time now. And as we grow older and see more people get into the field, we're starting to wonder what is a healthy way for us to share a message with you, in ways that won't cause more harm than good.

  12. 15

    Tokyo Tales: Where Are You From?

    Episode 15 gives a convoluted answer to a simple question: where are you from? For us, that's not an easy question to answer, and I don't know what's the right thing to say.

  13. 14

    Tokyo Tales: Barcelona and The Meaning of Tourist Traps

    Episode 14 of the Tokyo Tales podcast has us talking a bit about our time in Barcelona, and then we get into a bit of a heated discussion about tourist traps. WTF is a tourist trap? Help us understand better, because right now, we're not fond of the phrase...
