Dave makes karaage for special guest, HIKARI, director of 'Beef', 'Tokyo Vice', and now her new movie 'Rental Family'. HIKARI and Dave discuss why Osaka is so unique, the idiosyncrasies of Japanese life as seen by both of them while living in Japan, and even a little about the dark underside of such an amazing country. Dave also answers an Ask Dave about knives and asks some inappropriate dinner conversations to his producer Young David.
