    Ever Wanted to Learn Casual Japanese? You know, like the stuff that they speak at your local Japanese bars or in your favorite Japanese games? Then this is the podcast for YOU! In today's episode, Jay delivers some big news into his personal life and then Tarik and Jay breakdown the use of the particle 'ni' in terms of talking about where you go to do an action.

    Today's dialog revolves around concluding the lustful Saga between Masahiro and Yui:

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Masahiro: Nanji ni mukae ni ikou ka.

    Yui: Etto, goji ni mukae ni kite kureru?

    Masahiro: Ii yo. Sushi o tabe ni iku mae ni, sukoshi shibuya no hou e asobi ni ikou ka? Yui: Shibuya deska? Shibuya wa chotto...

    Masahiro: Namiya ga takusan aru kara, sukoshi nomi ni ikou kana to omotte.

    Yui: Gohan no ato nomi ni ikou yo. Taberu mae ni anmari nomitakunai

    Masahiro: Sou da ne. Sou shiyou.

    Yui: Arigatou.
