Show guide
ラジレキ (Rajireki) is a laid-back history podcast — two hosts spin surprising history, business trivia and casual chat into stories you'll want to share. It's real native Japanese; here's how to study it in Wakatta.
About the show
Two hosts — a history buff and a “sound craftsman” — mix history, business trivia and easygoing banter into short, shareable stories. It's made for Japanese listeners, spoken at natural speed (around N2), so it's real immersion rather than a learner show.
