Intro
Q: Something fancy you ate recently
🐉: I have one!
🧨: Oh, what was it?
🐉: This morning.. Well, I live with my mom right, so I have breakfast every morning. Depending on the week, I’ll get leftovers from last night, something like that. But today, it’s like I got the best of the best of Japanese breakfast.
🧨: Best of the best?
🐉: Salmon, miso soup, rice topped with raw egg and seaweed, seedless grape (shine muscat). I thought it was very Japanese. It was very delicious
🧨: In the morning
🐉: Yes! / 🐨: That’s nice~
🧨: So even if your morning [schedule] is rushed your mom still makes breakfast for you?
🐉: I don’t remember a day I don’t have breakfast…
🧨: Goodness. When does your mom wake up?
🐨: Around 7… / 🐉: She times it around when I wake up.
🧨: So she gets up an hour earlier?
🐉: Yeah
🧨: I want my parents around too 🥺
🐉: You guys eat your breakfast at work / studio set right, and I actually get hungry watching you guys eat so I eat again 😄
🧨: Are you looking down on us or something?
🐉: No I’m not… And hold on! You make it sound like we don’t get along!
🧨: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~
🐉: [Don’t make it] SOUNDS LIKE BE:FIRST DON’T GET ALONG!
🧨: So you think we just have shine muscat for breakfast…
🐉: No I don’t think that. Everyone’s great
🧨: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[BE:TALK Monthly Topic: Brag about your pets]
🧨: YEAH!! 👏👏👏👏👏

[Listener 1: Owns a 9 y.o a mix breed, Pug French bulldog (Frug??) named “Pokko”. Doesn’t bother small dogs and is usually quiet, but will bark at big dogs at a very high speed 😂 Not “woof woof” but 'ABABABABABA!” They walk Pokko-chan at Meijou Park often so please come around some time~]

ALL: Ohhhhh
🧨: I wanna meet [Pokko-chan]! I haven’t heard of dogs barking like that. And the dog is brave! Barking at bigger dogs. Hopefully they aren’t getting hurt.

🐉: Person who likes animals #3, what do you think?
🐨: I think they’re cool. Like me.
🐉: You’re very calm today
🧨: Person #3 do you like animals, actually?
🐉: Plus he’s talking like he’s not used to radio..
🧨: Well, he doesn’t talk
🐉: Right, he doesn’t 😂
🧨: Plus his visuals can’t be shown off in radio
🐉: They seem to take walks in Meijou Park
🧨: Then I’ll use 'ABABABABABA!” to find them! 😃

[Listener 2: I own a Djungarian hamster / winter white dwarf hamster. They love to eat it’s very easy to tell what they like and don’t like. If I place something they don’t like in their bowl once they smell it they won’t touch it. If it’s something they like, they will lick their paws / hands? Even after they finish, or stuff some in their cheeks or pretend they didn’t get any and ask for more. It’s cute every time and makes me smile]

🧨: That’s cute, what the heck? So cute~!
🐉: Cute!
🧨: That means they pop it in their mouth right? Aww! Cute!
🐉: Cute!
🧨 [pretending he’s feeding the hamster]: You just had some didn’t you?! You’re so cute though, give you more!
🐉: Hamsters are cute
🧨: Cute
🐉: And hamsters running on the wheel… [I think, I can’t be sure] I can watch them all day. They’re just so cute
🧨: We long for these right?
🐉: We doo
🧨: Makes your chest tighten!
🐉: Yeah~!
🐉: Person #3, what’s your take on hamsters?
🐨: Hamsters are out of my expertise 🧐
🐉: Expertise??
🐨: Even though I was listening, I can’t be of any help
🧨: We weren’t really asking for your help
🐨: I was just thinking, “cute”


🐉: So we were all the same about that
🐨: Made me realise again that animals’ cuteness soothes people’s hearts
🐉: Thank you very much!

[Listener 3: I own a parakeet called Kyou-chan and a Jack Russel terrier like 🐢called Kunugi. Because Kyou-chan lives with Kunugi, he’s been able to say, “wan wan”]

🧨: OH!! / 🐨: Ohhhh~
🧨: That’s cuuuttte!

[Listener 3 continued: The contractor who came to repair our water heater thought there was 2 dogs in the house]

🧨: HAHAH~

[Listener 3 continued: Kunugi and Kyou-chan will “wan wan” together. Kyouchan’s “wan wan’ was so good he was able to get someone else to think we had 2 dogs in our house. To clarify, the contractor was very surprised we only have 1 dog!]

🧨: That’s so funny! And cute~ But that’s so interesting, birds can be loud like that too?
🐉: Seems so!!
🧨: Because isn’t a dog’s bark pretty loud? So if they don’t put in the volume someone wouldn’t think it’s a dog right
🐉: That’s true…
🐉: We have a member called SHUNTO, I’m sure if [Kyou-chan] remembers the “gerraaa”
🧨, 🐉: “GERAAA~”
🐉: Person #3 what do you think?
🐨: This is comforting isn’t ittttt?

[the boys being silly]
🐉: Are you able to stay and participate after this?
🐨: I’m about done for today
🐉: R-really? Is it clock-out time?
🐉: You must be so busy!
🐨: I’m working on my day off…
🐉: Ah, so the animal [stories] helped you out!

[Announcement that BE:TALK ends in December]

🐉: We’ve had a lot of fun on BE:TALK this year, but.. BE:TALK will close at the end of the year
🧨: OH NO~ [this was in English]
🐨: MMMMM!
🧨: OH NO OH NO
🐉: It felt long!
🐨: It did
🧨: How many episodes have we done? Which episode are we on now?
🐨: 104th today
🐉: How often have we been at CBC Radio… Talking about a lot of…
🧨: Topics!
🐉: We’re going to close up after an eventful year
🧨: Ohhhhh / 🐨: MMMM
🐉: Thanks to everyone who has been listening to us all this time!
🧨, 🐨: THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
🐉: We’ll do our best to bring BE:TALK to you until 12/31!
🧨: I see a lot of people looking forward to BE:TALK [on social media]
🐉: We also get [messages] saying it’s very interesting or funny
🐉: Well, we may meet again in a different way
🧨: Yeah
