Special guest Matt returns on the podcast to congratulate Ben and Burke on their 100th episode! For this special show, Matt made a quiz to test the hosts' knowledge of the year 2020 in Japan. Some of the questions asked were; When was the first reported COVID case in Japan? How old was the oldest person in the world in 2020? When were the Tokyo Olympics originally scheduled to start? What was the most dangerous profession in Japan? and much much more. Play along and see if you know more about Japan than the hosts!
