Favoriting The Mike Rogers Show: Playlist from September 29, 2021 Favoriting

Mike Rogers's avatar View Mike Rogers's profile Favoriting

Playing the best of Japanese Indies and underground (and other stuff). Music you will hear nowhere else! Mike has been fired from every Tokyo FM station at least once and some of them 4 times! I wear it as a stinky badge of honor because FM in Japan sucks so much. Tune in! Be there!

Funny Joke. A Japanese taxi driver once told me, "I have no money, so I can't drink."
"I can't drink because I have no money" is in Japanese: "okane ga nai, kara no manai!"
Get it "no manai" (sounds like "no monsy." He kept telling me this joke for three years before I figured it out.
