Could have been a 20 min podcast without all the random talk but I did learn stuff.

I came here to learn, not to waste my time listening to jokes. I mean one or two is fine every now and then, but this is too much.

Kirsten drops a great piece of advice for reading "about 90% of Kanji" looking at left and right radicals.

Nice podcast even though it's way too long hahaha. Thanks for the tips about learning Kanji

This is the part that matters. The previous 50 minutes are just about history of how Kanji came to be, after this they actually delves into how to read Kanji... Till like 1:30:00 they de-railed again.

The jokes these guys make when I am trying to listen and understand is so annoying holy just please be quiet for five seconds and not make a joke.

I'm at this point in the podcast, I almost made it! I'm hungry. Great job, informative and fun.

As soon as you mentioned "place where they pretend it's old timey", I thought, "that sounds like Connor Prairie". I grew up in Anderson, so I'm very familiar with that area.

This is maybe the most frustrating aspect of studying kanji. You start learning 山 as やま. Cool, one kanji memorized. Wait... it can also be read as さん. 

Wait. All your other kanji have 2 or 4 extra readings too! Some are on'yomi. Some are kun'yomi.

Why does this have to be so complicated?!

It may seem confusing at first, but if you learn the difference between on'yomi/kun'yomi readings, where they came from, and how they work, we promise it will make learning kanji a lot easier.

Listen to this kanji-tastic episode where Kristen explains all this and more. When you're breezing through kanji like a pro, you'll be glad you did.
