This week, Ian and Carol go out to see the weird and wonderful things that can be had in Japan for only one dollar!  Or at least ¥100.  All this week on Dai-Cast at “The Daiso”

Every week, Dai-Cast Supplemental will give you a chance to learn a little something more about Japan, and allow us to clear out our archives of old topics which didn’t make it into the full length show. All in 3-5 minute easily digestible chunks!

And for more of Carol, check out http://www.youtube.com/user/mplstokyo
