This episode explores the winding, unpredictable path of parenthood as we, three sisters, reflect on life with a three-month-old, two pre-teen and teenage girls, and an introverted high school boy, each of us in a different phase of raising children. We weave in Japanese baby rituals like omiyamairi and okuizome, the challenges of working from home with a baby, and the emotional load that comes with health concerns, screen time, and raising kids in an AI-driven world. From midnight feeds to travel soccer weekends and negotiating digital boundaries, our conversation is an honest look at how we navigate the everyday realities of parenting.

Halloween takes on wildly different forms around the world- from Japan’s massive Shibuya street party and Disney parades to Germany’s spooky costumes and expanding trick-or-treat scenes. In the U.S., the holiday walks a line between fun and safety, with teal pumpkins signaling allergy-friendly treats, dentist buy-backs, and a shift from crowded haunted houses to calmer fall festivals. While Japan’s celebrations skew adult and urban, and Germany sticks to strictly spooky vibes in October, each country brings its own twist. We also share our first Halloween memories and low-effort “Jimi Halloween” costume hacks to inspire your next party.

For this milestone episode, we handed the mic to you, our listeners, and asked you to send in your burning questions for us three sisters. Nothing was off the table: from our most ridiculous childhood shenanigans to how we navigate culture, career, and chaos as adults. Your questions sparked laughs, debates, and a few “wait, do you actually remember it that way?” moments. The result? A mix of honest reflections, unexpected laughter, and the kind of candid moments that only siblings can pull off.

1. “Looking back, did any birth‑order stereotypes align with your situation? How did that evolve over time?”
2. “What part of your childhood do you miss most now that we live in a world dominated by modern technology?"
3. “If each of you were a flavor of ice cream based on personality, what would it be?”
4. “What do you think each sister would be doing in life if you weren’t sisters?”
5. “What’s a personality trait one sister has that the others didn’t appreciate growing up, but now love or admire?”
6. Do you feel more “Japanese,” “Western,” or something in between now? How do you define your identity?
7. If the three of you were cartoon characters, who would you be — and why?
8. What advice would you give to sisters who’ve drifted apart and want to reconnect?
