"How did it come to this?" - This must have been the question the Christian missionaries asked themselves as Hideyoshi followed by successive Tokugawa Shoguns made life unbearable for Christians in Japan. If only we had handed over the ship...if only we'd handed over the treasure.....if only we had that Englishman beheaded.....
It would be hard to find a group of Japanese more oppressed than the Christians. But why were they especially targeted? What threat did they represent?
Great podcast, I hope you continue it in the future. Thanks for sharing your love and experience of Japan with us.
Until next time,
Richard
I think only episodes 1-4 contain any sort of script.
Just discovered your awesome podcast from the UK.
Hope you manage to upload from episode10 -16 as I'm dying to hear about the Mongolians!
It's been perfect for the lead up to first trip to Japan!

Thanks for your very nice comments! I only just now worked out that (a) they existed and (b) I had to 'approve' them for publishing!
I'm thrilled that you are enjoying the podcast still so thank you very much for adding to my motivation!
I think the rss feeds have been updated correctly so that should work (if you update them too?) just fine. I'm still trying to work out how to make sure episodes 1-16 are also available....so bear with me!
Be well,
Cameron
I only recently discovered your podcast, but I've listened to the whole thing in about a week, and I'm now completely hooked! I keep bugging my family and friends with random facts about Japanese history!
Keep on keeping on, and thanks for making this learning thing fun

PS: do i need to update my RSS feed?
It was great to pick up my phone this morning and see that you are podcasting again. I hope this means we'll hear another one sometime in the near future.
Thank you for all the ones you have recorded so far.
Take care,
