“You're just watching my face though. What's the fun in that? I'm not an idol or anything. […] But when I checked the footage, all I saw was my belly and stuff like that.”
Balance of season 1 and the video-podcast debate: Kojima says the show has been running since September and admits it is not easy to do it every week. He highlights that they stream with music in both Japanese and English, arguing that no one else is doing that, and credits the team for making it work after initial doubts. He adds that many famous people have told him they would happily appear, but that Zoom is not ideal. He playfully disavows a recent video experiment, saying viewers were just looking at his face, that he is not an idol, and that when he reviewed the footage all he saw was his belly; his vote is that he prefers only their voices, although he feels people at Spotify prefer the video. As a creator he warns that with video they will end up wanting to do more and wonders where they will stop.
“We've been doing this since September, haven't we? It's not easy doing this every week. […] we were able to play music and stream it in both English and Japanese. No one else is doing that. […] Mmm, but I think I prefer just our voices. […] I think with video, we're going to end up wanting to do more. And then, where will we stop?”
