About this episode
In this episode, Tim Down discusses the title 'Akira, Akira' and its playful connection to 'Shakira, Shakira'.
I meant the title to sound like "Shakira, Shakira" because I couldn't really think of an eating pun with Akira, but I'm not sure if that came across. Podcast art by Joey Rizk
