Description

Welcome to The J-Pops, the only podcast with J-pop in the title that gives you a 100% no J-pop guarantee. The J-Pops are Mark and Justin, two dads (pops) living in Japan (J). They both hail from the US, and this podcast covers their attempts at parenting abroad. Like all parents, they have questions, and in this podcast they share the information and advice that they came up with. They also talk about the struggles they face in their quest to raise children in a foreign land.
