BE:FIRST – MILLION BILLION PODCAST #0 and #1 (RYOKI, LEO) 2023.06.09, 2023.06.10
Translation of BE:FIRST's MILLION BILLION PODCAST, Episode 0, June 9th, 2023 and
Episode 1, June 10th, 2023
Other than BE:FIRST's main MILLION BILLION radio show on J-WAVE every Saturday, they also started the MILLION-BILLION podcast back in June, 2023. In the MILLI-BILLI PODCAST, members answer listener questions, messages, give advice, and / or have discussions around the messages listeners send in. The atmosphere is more relaxed, so I've started listening to them!
For this first post, have Episode 0 and Episode 1 together, because episode zero was very short.
All podcast episodes are available on MILLION-BILLION's AMAZON Music page, so feel free to follow along as you listen to the audio. I will have each episode's podcast linked under the cut!
Enjoy!

🧨: What about it?
🦁: I dunno if the office is OK [with him sharing this], but I’ve been really into smoothies.
🧨: I think that’s to-tally fine.
🦁: Really?
🧨: Office wise, I think so.
🦁: You sure, it won’t affect my branding or anything? Or like me eating meat in the morning..?

🧨: Oh, that’s super nice! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🦁: Yeah, but you know now that I’m into smoothies…
🧨: Like, really nice 🤣🤣🤣🤣
🦁: I heard that if you start the day with a smoothie it’s good for your body
🧨: Smoothie is good! LEO would recommend a smoothie for everyone you see, and everyone will drink it right. I got really into it, you know! So the next day I’ll ask you right? 🤣
🦁: Like, “Where was that smoothie from?”
🧨: Yeah, “Where was it from, I can’t get it outta my head”
🦁: 🧨 and I drink smoothies a fair bit
🧨: I still do!
🦁: Me too me too!

🧨: That’s good too
🦁: Try it out
🧨: That’s good
🦁: So orders are pouring in~ 😆
🧨; What? No way~ 🤣
[Listener 1, Usa-usa-san, read by 🦁: Hi LEO and RYOKI. I thought I’ll send a message for the MILLION-BILLION podcast. Both of you have great fashion sense, so I was wondering if your style had to change if the colour of your hair changed.]
🦁: This one’s for 🧨 right?
🧨: 😂😂😂😂 Well well well… With this hair, I’ve been donning a lot of street clothes… If it’s too clean-cut there’s a kinda mismatch… But actually, I can match anything with this hair. Having said that, it’s more which path I want to go with - should I create some kind of gap or go with street fashion to match how I look. The color [of the hair] itself, it’s very striking so it kinda matches any kind of clothes.
🦁: Oh~ OK, so rather than change your fashion based on your hair, it’s more you’re having fun with it. There’ll be times when it matches and times when it doesn’t.
🧨: Yeah, it’s the same with bags. There are times when it matches or it doesn’t but it works if you stand far away and see. Basically, with this hair, anything matches ✨
🦁: So you don’t really dwell on it then
🧨: Yeah, I don’t. Though I am pretty conscious of how this is very street so I often go in that direction.
🦁: I see~ 😄 btw, can I ask about the colour of your hair right now?
🧨: The colour?
🦁: Yeah, what’s the colour, to me it looks like it’s “red”
🧨: Violet Kiss 💋
🦁: …W-wha…U-um, c-can you say that one more time? Vi-? 😅
🧨: [with echo] Violet Kiss 💋
🦁: Violet Kiss? OK, thanks~
🧨: Hair colour!
🦁: Akabouzu is donning violet kiss hair right now~
🧨: Yes~
[Listener 2, Potatu-san, 18 yo, read by 🧨: I have a classmate that I like…]
🧨: Ohh myyy~ / 🦁: Oh!
🧨: 🗣️🗣️🗣️THIS IS YOUTH~!!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️
🦁: Wait, they’re a 12th grader?
🧨: 12th grader?
🦁: 12th grader?
🧨: That’s Greattt! / 🦁: Aww come on~
🦁: Aoharu how you write “youth”, and when you write youth you write it aoharu!
[LEO is talking about the kanji for “seishun” 青春, which is made up of 2 kanjis, “ao” 青 and “haru”春 so teens have been reading the kanji 青春 literally as “aoharu” recently instead of reading it as “seishun”. Both mean the same thing! YOUTH!]
🧨: Either way works! 😂
[Listener 2, Potatu-san, 18 yo, read by 🧨 continued: So aoharu… That classmate is now in a different class…]
🧨: EHhh? HOLD ON. NO NO NO~
🦁: Wait wait wait wait
🧨: Sorry sorry sorry! 😂
🦁: Read read read!
🧨: I’ll keep reading I’ll keep reading!
[Listener 2, Potatu-san, 18 yo, read by 🧨 continued: I heard from my friends that the classmate now has a person they like in that class. The person they like sits next to me. I want to be friends with them but I don’t know how.]
🧨: Wait? They sit next to each other but they’re not close?
🦁: So they’re the type to like someone in a new semester?
🧨: Maybe? How should we help them?
🧨: They sit next to each other but they don’t..? But if you sit next to each other, I thought there’d be a lot of situations where you can talk?
🦁: But “sit next to each other” could mean they’re separated by the walkway right? The desks and chairs are always arranged by two… So one of them could be part of a different two [sets of desks and chairs].
🧨: Ohhh, is that right
🦁: They might not be in the same row
🧨: Ohh, OK
🦁: Separated by a walkway, you know.
🧨: But still, they’re sitting close to each other! I think you can still approach them to talk.. Is Potatu-san on the shy side?
🦁: I think [becoming friends] is a lot faster if you find something in common both of you like 🤔
🧨: Yeah yeah yeah
🦁: If you notice they’re using a Marvel pencil case you can be like, “Eh? You like Marvel? 👀 I like Marvel too!” and start a conversation from there you know. “I was looking at it for a while!” or “I’ll recommend you some comics to read later!” something like that, you get their contacts too.
🧨: Yeah if you sit next to each other you can easily find things in common… Because they’re students right, you can be subtle like – “accidentally” drop your eraser… 😏
🦁: AHHHHh! 😆
🧨: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🦁: Erasers can roll quite a distance!
🧨: Maybe you’ll go “not that way not that way! 💦”
🦁: No no no no~!
🧨: Maybe at a certain angle it can reach that person, HAHAH! That’ll be super funny! Or maybe, “Ah.. it wasn’t for you..” But you never know! Maybe fate will make a way.
🦁: I want a further report on this one! 😄
🧨: Yeah! I hope they can tell us! Approaching someone you don’t know… I think we should try it some time.
🦁: I’ll cheer them on!! 💪
🧨: We will wait for an update from you Potatu-san!
🦁: We will wait~
[Listener 3, Yukizukiuki-san read by 🦁]
🦁: It has come!! The word the whole world’s been waiting for! 😆
🧨: Which is?
[Listener 3, Yukizukiuki-san read by 🦁 continued: Hello Mister Leonidas!]
🦁: Hi! 😆
🧨: 🤣🤣🤣🤣
[Listener 3, Yukizukiuki-san read by 🦁 continued: I tried making mapo tofu before but forgot to buy tofu and sought Leonidas sensei for advice]
🦁: Ah, you did! How nostalgic!
[Listener 3, Yukizukiuki-san read by 🦁 continued: Is “Leonidas Kadaridasu” coming back now that the PODCAST has started? Listeners from the previous show have been waiting for it~]
🦁: About “Leonidas Kadaridasu”, it was a mini corner from a show we used to have called SPARK. It was about 2-3 minutes.
🧨: There were a lot of interesting submissions
🦁: It suddenly appeared and became this overwhelming trend
🧨: Overwhelming trend hey? 🤣
🦁: Among some fans~
🦁: Fans around the world have been waiting for Leonidas Kadaridasu~
🧨: There are some core fans of Leonidas around the world huh?
🦁: There are! People around me too, are fans of Leonidas Kadaridasu
🧨: Really? Not in my circle…
🦁: Then let them have a listen! They probably didn’t listen to it before, once they do, they might go, “Leonidas is that..?”
🧨: You also haven’t done it lately, so your fans are probably waiting. When we released the teaser [episode 0] maybe fans were realising who else is also a fan
🦁: Now that we have [PODCAST] I want to do it. Please please 🙏
🧨: And we’ve got fans wanting it
🦁: Yes! Thank you Yukizukiuki-san
[Listener 4, Shishio-chan, read by 🧨: On the episode for June 3rd, you guys mentioned a fes called WATERBOMB held in Korea. What kind of live or FES do you guys want to have? I’m looking forward to your tour!]
🦁: Oh yes! NAOKI from Team A [during THE FIRST] invited me but I couldn’t go.
🧨: Eh really? It looks super fun! It’s only held in Korea?
🦁: No, it happens in Japan too!
🧨: Japan really? In Nagoya?
🦁: They do it in a lot of places
🧨: Ooh ok
🦁: Yeah, it looks very interesting
🧨: Yeah!
🦁: Just get soaked when it’s really hot and enjoy music
🧨: Eeehhh! You think we can appear at it?
🦁: Maybe not this year~ 😔
🧨: Next yearrrr!!! I heard they bring out flames?
🦁: Let’s work hard so we could appear next year!
🧨: That will be gooddddd
🦁: What kind of live or FES would you want to do?
🧨: Everyone shows up on stage with a snowboard 😤
🦁: That might not be possible
🧨: No?!
🦁: Think about it, we won’t be able to sing? Or dance?
🧨: You won’t know where the artist is, “Japan’s First! Find the Artist”
🦁: Is there something like that? 😂 There are people who [attend] to see the artist
🧨: Yeah, but then you can be like, “Where’s the artist!?”
🦁: Well it’ll be interesting
🦁: I think it’ll be chaotic backstage if they suddenly get to the backstage area
🧨: No space to hide
🦁: What else~ 🤔
🧨: And food! Super good food. Enjoy music while eating. Oh and bathrooms! Place plenty of bathrooms around the area. Because once you’re there you don’t go back right? I’m sure a lot of people who go to FES try to be cautious about food and water intake. So I want to have a FES where they don’t need to worry about that, and can enjoy [a FES] while having good food and drinks. They can enjoy the artists too. Us too, we can have good food then perform.
🦁: It wouldn’t matter if there’s seats right?
🧨: Seats?
🦁: Like a dinner show
🧨: Ohhh. If it’s a big venue though, you lose [audiences] after 1-2 songs don’t you? So I was thinking, after one block, have bathrooms ready!
🦁: Ohhh! I see what you mean
🧨: A FES with lots of toilets
🦁: Eeewww 😩
🧨: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
🦁: Noooo 😩
🧨: HAHAH! I think it’ll be super interesting! But yeah, put it simply, a FES with lots of toilets. It’s a little different, actually
🦁: More like, depending on the size of the toilets you probably can’t see the stage, or it’s in the way…
🧨: There will be areas blocked off so that doesn’t happen
🦁: OK, so toilets are close by
🧨: Yup, which equals = don’t hold back on eating+drinking
🦁: Ahh OK. It is important
🧨: Yeah, toilets are important! In the end it was about toilets 😂 Isn’t that good though everyone? A FES with more than enough toilets?
🦁, 🧨: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🦁: We can put together a proposal
🧨: Thanks for your messages. We’re looking for more! Questions you want to ask, want us to share, get advice, or what you want us to do on the program, etc etc send them over via the form linked on the program homepage!!
🦁: And this was the first episodeee! It was fun right? It’s been a while since we read messages
🧨: True! We got really into them
🦁: We actually had four more we were supposed to read (🧨: mm!) but yeah, we got carried away. But keep sending your messages! It might get read. We will be waiting~
🦁: AMAZON MILLION BILLION PODCAST has a new episode every Saturday at 6pm. Next week is still the two of us. With that..
🦁, 🧨: BYE BYE~ 👋
