Chapter Forty-Seven: A Japanese Man in New York

Do you want to know what podcasting is like? So you and your friend sit down to record. You have no intention of talking about Star Wars. Neither of you particularly cares about Star Wars, at least to such an extent that never before in your years of knowing each other have you ever had a conversation about Star Wars. You start recording and you have multiple other things you could talk about. Things directly related to the topic of the podcast. Things that you intended to bring up and discuss. But just as a little bit at the beginning, you joke about alarm tones that you can buy on your phone. Somehow the fact that a lot of them are Star Wars sound effects means that you talk for a half hour about Star Wars. The majority of the discussion is circling the fact that neither of you are really that interested in talking about Star Wars. You forget to mention that you thought this week's chapter was really funny and the way Mercury develops as a character in his relationship with Takenouchi was really good. This is a Star Wars podcast now, I guess.
