I was interviewed by this guy, Jian Ghomeshi, on the CBC's popular radio program, Q, yesterday morning. The topic was my Wired feature on Hiroyuki Nishimura. He asked me about how I found him (everyone asks—Hiroyuki is notoriously hard to track down), why he's so unconventional, and whether 2channel and NND were going to lead to a revolution in the formality of Japan.

Hey!
When you came to Brazil, if you want you could stay here, in my home. No problems, no fees.
I live in a small city near São Paulo.
Cheers!

Ghomeshi's a cool dude, he used to be in a quirky band called Moxy Fruvous back in the early '90s.
