    Akane is really good! Her unscripted podcasts are still mostly over my head, but the short, scripted ones are approachable. Of all the podcasts I’ve tried, something about that one feels like the best balance of clear, well-spoken, balanced audio with a pace that’s not too fast or conspicuously slow.

      I think I just like her content and vibe a lot more too. Shun’s been very comfortable to listen to on a comprehension level but I’d kinda rather hear about Japan, lol.

      Plus it’s so much better for me to listen to a fem speaker to emulate.

        Relatable. I feel like I’m in the opposite situation, where the ones I enjoy listening to more are usually by women, but I should probably be listening to guys more to emulate. I think the higher pitched voices just seem more detectable to me, for now. Once I’m further along I’m hoping listening to Yuyu and eventually ゆる言語学 will be more fun.
