I used to listen to "learn Japanese with Masa Sensei" but it's not for immersion, it just helps when you're an absolute beginner, specially if you lack time. I used to listen to it while stuck in traffic and it was great for some vocabulary and new grammar points.
I love Nihongo Switch, I find her explanations of Japanese idioms in Japanese very interesting and funny :) and I like Japanese with K, who oftens has interesting topics too I think, and slightly easier than Nihongo Switch imo. Thank you for the video ! Tons of the podcast recommended seem very interesting ! Can’t wait to have a good level enough to understand the one abt linguistics and the one abt history ! And I was looking for a shadowing podcast !!!! Thanks for the last one then :)
@@weirdtoast5527 how can you understand Japanese before listening to it? That's like trying to learn to play basketball without touching the ball. I explained the beginning stages in this video ruclips.net/video/quicjmZjbPg/видео.html
Teppei's beginner podcast is soooooo good, it got to a point i could almost completely understand an entire episode after about 3 months of studying and it made me SO happy (ive been on break from learning because i was moving a lot and just recently got my books back, lost most of my notes though 😢)
Cheers for the comprehensive list. I think all beginners (+ some intermediate) would also benefit from Benjiro - Beginner Japanese, Comprehensible Japanese, Japanese with Shun, The Bite size Japanese Podcast, Sakura Tips, Nihongo-Learning, Learn Japanese with Tanaka san and a fairly new one called Daily Japanese with Naoko. YAKO KIMURA's Think in Japanese is also a good natural conversation podcast that deserves some attention. For grammar and JLPT Chika Sensei and of course 日本語の森. This could go on all day so I'll leave it there for now :). I realise some of these are youtube channels more than podcasts. Thanks again!
Thanks! Yeah, I watched all of Benjiro's when I first started studying. Those are great. Too bad he stopped making videos. Of course 日本語の森 too. I smashed through their videos leading up to the n1 exam. I'll have to check out the ones I don't know. As you said a lot of these are RUclips channels. I was planning to do another video for those soon. Thanks for your input! (Pun intended 😉)
My favorites are 'Japanese Made Easy' (which was SO helpful to me with 'wa vs ga', and how and when to use 'o, vs no, vs ga, de, ni' etc. I also like (here on YT) 'Japanese With Shun', where he has everyday conversations with Japanese folk, and simultaneously the screen will show the corresponding text. Lastly, as I'm getting ready for bed, I enjoy 'A Sleepy Japanese Podcast' with Masanori Mori. His voice is SOOOO soothing, and in each episode he will teach you around 20 new vocabulary words, and repeats each word twice.
Great list, especially as I'm trying to transition from contents aimed at Japanese learners (big Teppei fan) to standard podcasts in Japanese. In this category, I absolutely recommend Peter Barakan's The Lifestyle Museum. Great cultural contents with guest interviews on a large variety of topics + ideal length (30 mn).
That's great! Someone else recommended The Lifestyle Museum and I've been listening to it a lot. It's great. Asahishinbun podcast is similar sometimes (they have a lot of different programs within the podcast).
I passed the JlptN5 this year and listening to podcasts helps a lot. I already listen to Nihongo to teppei which to me is quite comprehensible, but it s not the case with miku. So even at beginner level, there are different "sub levels" i would say. I obviously encourage beginners to listen to teppei
Yeah, you're definitely right. It's a bit difficult to grade them though so I just put them in native and non native basically. I hope you find some of these useful for you. I don't think Let's Talk Japanese would be any harder than Teppei so check that one out.
@@baribarijapan will check it soon. btw listening to podcasts helps me a lot understanding what my teacher says. I can't wait getting better at it even if kanji are freaking scary. Thanks for your content
For Brazilians, the best podcast is nihongo na prática, a Brazilian fluent in Japanese does lives on social networks with live questions, about 200 people watch the lives and send questions on how to say something in Japanese, then he passes the audio to the podcast, ranging from basics to advanced.
For learning Japanese I like Miku very much. She's a great teacher. When it comes to native level podcasts (not for learning, but more to keep Japanese in my ears) I like to listen to なんちゃラジオ, the podcast of an idol group called なんちゃらアイドル. I'll have to look for the RSS feeds of the other casts.
Great list. My favourite is Bilingual News. It's so good I'd listen to it just for the content, but the fact it's half in Japanese is icing on the cake. I highly recommend it!
another podcast I recommend is ことのは日本語の会話のPodcast！they talk about a bunch of different interesting topics and relating to japanese society and everyday life, and mainly do topics from N3-Above N1, but have beginner segments too!
Thanks for the great inspiration! This is very helpful regarding the podcast jungle. "Learn Japanese with Noriko", "Miku Real Japanese podcast" are my favorites. I like the videos from the channel "japanese with Naoko". I like listening to yuyu as well, even when it is more advanced.
Its not a podcast channel but i think that もしもしゆうすけ is good for people that want to learn japanese. He is doing amazing job with subtitles and it helps with learning vocabulary and grammar.
I'll have to listen to some of these podcasts! I mainly use yt videos & podcasts for listening immersion so this was super useful 😀Recently i've been listening to alot of neoおじさん on spotify & わたなべ夫婦のふたりごと. Thanks again!
Just found your channel recently, great videos! Here are a few recommendations apart from those mentioned in the video, probably intermediate to upper intermediate-ish (all but the first one are aimed at native speakers): 1.Thinking in Japanese Podcast : A lot of philosopical and self-help-esque topics. Includes some difficult words, but is spoken slowly/clearly, sometimes with a little English to help out. 2. 大原ゆい子のちるあうとラジオ : This one is only on RUclips, but it's almost entirely audio-only. A chill podcast where singer-songwriter Ōhara Yuiko talks about various topics, including her favorite foods and new things she's into. She also asks the listeners questions and reads people's responses to previous questions. There's also a section in each episode where she sings either a song she's chosen herself, or a song that was requested by a listener. 3. ゲームデザインの話 : A former Nintendo programmer talks with guests from the game industry about various topics related to game design and the games industry in general. 4. Bright Bit Brothers : Two guys talk about video games from the 80s and 90s in a very informative way. A typical episode goes through the history of a single retro game or console (development, sales numbers, what was special about it, what else happened around that time in gaming, etc.)
Thank you for the list. I just want to share some other chanels I am following: *4989 America life: A 40s woman talks about her life in America. She aims at native Japanese but provides free scripts for Japanese learners. *Nihongo switch: Each ep. goes deeply in a grammar point or a group of idiom, as well as how to use them in real life. This podcast is helpful no mater which level are you. *Let's learn Japanese from small talk: 2 young girls talk about daily topics. They was quite popular but do not update recently.
Amazing list, thanks! I’d add: 痛いおじさんズPODCAST (two guys talking/native/comedy sorta genre) And Amao Japan (one guy talking about Japanese culture. Similar sense of humour to Teppei)
@@baribarijapan one of the hosts of 痛いおじさん PDRさん also hosts a japanese language youtube channel with plenty of skits about daily life in japan and interactions with conbini staff. i also reccomend you check it out. his channel is called PDRさん

Wow I wish you uploaded this when I started in 2020. I was listening to native level content for a year straight and in late 2021 just started watching Yuyu and Akane's videos. The rest of these would've given me more progress had I watched them before! I even looked up "best Japanese podcasts videos" back then and got nothing. Haha
Haha same! That's why I made this video because I couldn't find one like it. It's never too late to listen to them though. Like I said in the video I still listen to all different levels of stuff.
Thanks for the recommendations I am going to check them all up. I used to listen to weekly Japan round the time the ended it. Shiro kuro papa sounds like the perfect thing for me.
As many others have said, thank you for this list! I've struggled for years trying to find good podcasts to listen for advanced Japanese. Because it's close to halloween, I think I'll try さむいぼラジオ first. Also subscribed. Thank you!
Nice one! Thanks for subscribing. If you're getting in the mood for Halloween, in Yuyu's podcast that I mentioned he has told a bunch of ghost stories before that were pretty interesting.
I really enjoyed this video. It’s hard to find native content when you’re trying to break into intermediate level Japanese. I’d love to see a video of other recommendations you have for RUclips channels. It’s another space of the internet that’s has a lot of native content that’s hard to navigate if you have low level Japanese like me
Just came across your channel man, great stuff! I really am just starting out in Japanese, I've probably been at it for about two weeks or so now. I'm mainly studying it through French (which I have a C1/C2 level in), but I definitely plan on taking a look at some of the beginner podcasts you mentioned here, although I expect that I won't understand much! Thanks again man, you've earned a sub
Oh! Well it did finish a while ago so maybe they deleted it. It's still on some other platforms but anyway the other ones I talked about are still going. Thanks for your comment!
@@baribarijapan my favorite one these days is « let’s learn Japanese from small talk ». It’s perfect for my level and the hosts’ enthusiasm is delightfully infectious 😊
Most of them don't. You should really use podcasts. No ads, easy to download for when you're on the go, and just easier to listen continuously to than RUclips. I use RUclips a lot too but it can't replace podcasts.
この動画を作ってくれてありがとうございます！！！I know this video has been here for 2 months and it is probably too late to write anything, but hey, I am so very thankful. After becoming a mother, I stopped learning Japanese for 6 years. My life changed 2 years ago when I discovered the universe of Podcasts (unknown to me). For 2 years I have been listening to podcasts, but only a couple of them, the ones for learners. I am very indebted to those podcasts but all of a sudden you have opened a new world up for me, thank you so much for that. Now I have so many hours to keep busy listening to podcasts, it is just amazing and also a challenge to listen to podcast for Japanese native speakers. Is there an email contact adress where I can write to you? 心からありがたいです。
こちらこそありがとうございます！It's never too late to comment! You can write to me on here anytime! I'm glad I could help. I have a daughter too so I know it can be hard to study while raising a child. Podcasts are definitely indispensable! I'll be making more videos soon about other useful resources. お互いに頑張りましょう！
Thanks for the list. There are some on here I haven't heard of and will definitely check out. I like to listen to Nihongo Switch the woman that does this one provides transcripts you can download, for laughs モーニングドッグショー (they also have a youtube channel but don't update as often), I live in Kansai so if you want some Kansai-ben there's a podcast by 3 siblings that are half-Japanese and it's chaotic called 大阪育ちハーフ３兄弟, there are more but I won't bore you. If anyone wants to know hit me up.
Oh! I used to listen to Nihongo Switch. I forgot about that one. I'll check out the others that you said. I live in Kansai too so I'm always keen to listen to Kansai-ben. Aitan from the Japanese Bake Off was doing a good podcast filled with Kansai ben with her husband but they stopped posting. It's pretty funny though so you could still check out the old episodes. Samuibo rajio that I mentioned here uses kansai ben too (even the title). Thanks for your recommendations!
@@baribarijapan Cool Thanks! I'll check out these in particular. Also, I forgot to mention in a really weird kind of way モーニングドッグショー is very informative about things you probably never wanted to know about or is highly inappropriate to ask. (Therefore it is really funny.)
@@anappynerdgirl7536 I've been listening to Morning Dog Show, I love it already. It reminds me of Donguri FM which I talked about in this video so you might enjoy that if you haven't listened to it already.
Hi baribari Japan! Recently found your channel and loving your videos and the information you are sharing is so useful! Question on your listening though, with the podcasts you listen to, do you try to push your abilities by listening to things that are above your current comprehension level, or do you focus on comprehension first and then moving into harder topics? I'm currently around N3 level but am struggling with progressing higher as the jump from intermediate to advanced is mountainous. I find the next level of podcasts to be really difficult as they tend to be in super hard / super quick Japanese aimed at Japanese people or advanced learners. For example, Miku's podcast, I can understand about 65% - 75% of it (Depending on the subject) but Coten Radio I'm around 25% comprehension. Would you suggest stick with something like Miku until I get higher comprehension or challenge myself with Coten Radio? Apologies if this has been asked before but appreciate any advice you can give :)
No worries. It's a good question. Glad you're finding my videos useful btw. Coten radio is really high level! I mean it's about history so there's a lot of vocabulary you don't usually hear. I think it is perhaps better for our learning and motivation to go with things that are just a bit above our level. So dokuzetu American life might be a good start with native-aimed content. It's about American culture so that makes it much easier to understand. And it's more everyday topics. Also Donguri FM and one I learned about recently called Morning Dog Show. Those kind of zatsudan type podcasts will be easier to start with. Also just keep listening to those conversational ones aimed at Japanese learners. Those will help a lot.
Thanks for the addition! I've seen her RUclips channel pop up in my recommendations but she explains things in English, right? I tried to stick to Japanese only even from the beginning so didn't watch it. What's her podcast like?
@@baribarijapan It's made for beginners for sure. She says english words few and there only. I am just upper beginner and I can understand almost everything without effort. I think it's one of the easiest podcast to understand. She spoke about her experiences, every day topics and so on. For more advanced learners might be too easy. I guess she is good at speaking that way because her boyfriend is an english speaker who is learning japanese.
At what level should you be before I would start listening to podcasts. Iv only gotten to lesson 5 on the genki 1 text book so I won't understand anything on the podcast yet. Thanks
It's never too early to start getting used to the phonemes of Japanese so I'd say get into it. Maybe start with Teppei's beginner podcast. It's very simple Japanese. I talked about this kind of thing in this video about my route from zero to JLPT N1 ruclips.net/video/cAqQNq2Icz8/видео.html If you have any other questions just let me know and I'll do my best to answer.
@@baribarijapan thank you very much for the reply. I'm having a really hard time retaining anything. I'll go through a lesson in genki a few times and still hardly remember any of the grammer. I'll start listening to the podcast and doing the lessons, hopefully something clicks for me soon. Lol
The majority of Japanese podcasts seem old skool radio DJ personality driven chat show or news and lifestyle type. Are there any slightly more experimental type shows based purely on subscriber material such as This is Actually Happening or Lets Read? The podcasts seem a bit mundane here, much like the radio. There must be some leftfield stuff out there surely? I havent found anything yet and RUclips seems to be a better place for content perhaps the underground view podcasts a bit like the facebook of the streamed content world.
Yeah, that's true. Podcasts are still kind of unknown in Japan. Most people don't know what they are so there are just less podcasts to begin with. Then I'd say most media is generally less edgy or experimental in Japan. The ones I talked about towards the end of this video are the most interesting ones that I've come across.
Let me know your favourite podcasts!
I used to listen to "learn Japanese with Masa Sensei" but it's not for immersion, it just helps when you're an absolute beginner, specially if you lack time. I used to listen to it while stuck in traffic and it was great for some vocabulary and new grammar points.

Nihongo con teppei is sooo good. Like he uses understandable level. And then talks interesting things. Feels like friend talks

After becoming a mother, I stopped learning Japanese for 6 years. My life changed 2 years ago when I discovered the universe of Podcasts (unknown to me). For 2 years I have been listening to podcasts, but only a couple of them, the ones for learners. I am very indebted to those podcasts but all of a sudden you have opened a new world up for me, thank you so much for that. Now I have so many hours to keep busy listening to podcasts, it is just amazing and also a challenge to listen to podcast for Japanese native speakers. Is there an email contact adress where I can write to you? 心からありがたいです。
こちらこそありがとうございます！It's never too late to comment! You can write to me on here anytime! I'm glad I could help. I have a daughter too so I know it can be hard to study while raising a child. Podcasts are definitely indispensable! I'll be making more videos soon about other useful resources. お互いに頑張りましょう！
@@baribarijapan バリバリさん、早く返事をしてくれてありがとうございます。感動しましたよ！そうですね、バリバリさんも娘がいますので、共感ができるんですね。私は双子のママになって、趣味は全部やめなけないといけなくなって、言ったように趣味としてたまに勉強していた日本語を６年間やめました。２年前からポッドキャストの世界を見つけて、もう一度勉強したいと思うようになり、人生が変わりました。この２年間私は特に「てっぺい先生」と「のりこさん」のポッドキャストを聞いていたり、日本語を学ぶポッドキャストもほぼ毎日聞いていたりして、勇気をもらって、忘れるようになった私は日本語の勉強を改めて始めました。でもバリバリさんの動画を見てから、私の目が覚めるようになり、私の日本語は本当にまだまだだと明らかにわかりました。なぜなら、バリバリさんのお勧めなポッドキャストはいくつかの聞いてみて、native speakerのポッドキャストはまだ分からないことが気付きました。少し落ち込んでいましたが、一方でバリバリさんのおかげでこの気づきができてうれしいです。日本語の勉強は私の趣味の一つなので、頑張りたいと思います。
バリバリさんはJLPT試験の N1を合格親し、日本語はペラペラ話せるし、便利で面白い動画も作られるので、偉いと思います。経験をシェアしてくれてありがたいです。
バリバリさんの次の動画が楽しみです。
@@mariapuerta6557 少しでも役に立てたのなら嬉しいです。ちなみに日本人向けのポッドキャストを聴いて全部が聞き取れるわけじゃないですよ。後はまだまだ流暢に話せないんです。言葉に詰まったりとかいつもしています。これからもお互いに頑張りましょう!
@@baribarijapan 分りました❣️もちろんお互いに頑張りましょうね！もう一度お礼の気持ちを伝えたいと思います❣️バリバリさんの新しい動画をいつでも楽しみです❣️
would have be nice to linik to their channels
Everyone uses different podcast apps.
Thanks for the list. There are some on here I haven't heard of and will definitely check out. I like to listen to Nihongo Switch the woman that does this one provides transcripts you can download, for laughs モーニングドッグショー (they also have a youtube channel but don't update as often), I live in Kansai so if you want some Kansai-ben there's a podcast by 3 siblings that are half-Japanese and it's chaotic called 大阪育ちハーフ３兄弟, there are more but I won't bore you. If anyone wants to know hit me up.
Oh! I used to listen to Nihongo Switch. I forgot about that one. I'll check out the others that you said. I live in Kansai too so I'm always keen to listen to Kansai-ben. Aitan from the Japanese Bake Off was doing a good podcast filled with Kansai ben with her husband but they stopped posting. It's pretty funny though so you could still check out the old episodes. Samuibo rajio that I mentioned here uses kansai ben too (even the title). Thanks for your recommendations!
@@baribarijapan Cool Thanks! I'll check out these in particular. Also, I forgot to mention in a really weird kind of way モーニングドッグショー is very informative about things you probably never wanted to know about or is highly inappropriate to ask. (Therefore it is really funny.)
@@anappynerdgirl7536 I've been listening to Morning Dog Show, I love it already. It reminds me of Donguri FM which I talked about in this video so you might enjoy that if you haven't listened to it already.
@@baribarijapan Yay! I'm glad. I thought, he'll either like it or think I'm another weirdo of the internet.
@@anappynerdgirl7536 Haha the weirder the better!
僕はMiku real Japanese , yuyu nihongo , masami sensei , haruko Nihongo Café の動画見てます。
Hi baribari Japan! Recently found your channel and loving your videos and the information you are sharing is so useful!
Question on your listening though, with the podcasts you listen to, do you try to push your abilities by listening to things that are above your current comprehension level, or do you focus on comprehension first and then moving into harder topics?
I'm currently around N3 level but am struggling with progressing higher as the jump from intermediate to advanced is mountainous. I find the next level of podcasts to be really difficult as they tend to be in super hard / super quick Japanese aimed at Japanese people or advanced learners. For example, Miku's podcast, I can understand about 65% - 75% of it (Depending on the subject) but Coten Radio I'm around 25% comprehension. Would you suggest stick with something like Miku until I get higher comprehension or challenge myself with Coten Radio?
Apologies if this has been asked before but appreciate any advice you can give :)
No worries. It's a good question. Glad you're finding my videos useful btw. Coten radio is really high level! I mean it's about history so there's a lot of vocabulary you don't usually hear. I think it is perhaps better for our learning and motivation to go with things that are just a bit above our level. So dokuzetu American life might be a good start with native-aimed content. It's about American culture so that makes it much easier to understand. And it's more everyday topics. Also Donguri FM and one I learned about recently called Morning Dog Show. Those kind of zatsudan type podcasts will be easier to start with. Also just keep listening to those conversational ones aimed at Japanese learners. Those will help a lot.
You can't miss The Bite size Japanese Podcast.
Thanks for the addition! I've seen her RUclips channel pop up in my recommendations but she explains things in English, right? I tried to stick to Japanese only even from the beginning so didn't watch it. What's her podcast like?
@@baribarijapan It's made for beginners for sure. She says english words few and there only. I am just upper beginner and I can understand almost everything without effort. I think it's one of the easiest podcast to understand. She spoke about her experiences, every day topics and so on. For more advanced learners might be too easy. I guess she is good at speaking that way because her boyfriend is an english speaker who is learning japanese.
@@mnemonic8757 Oh, nice! I hope you found something useful in the ones I talked about here. A lot of them would be good for upper beginners.
At what level should you be before I would start listening to podcasts. Iv only gotten to lesson 5 on the genki 1 text book so I won't understand anything on the podcast yet. Thanks
It's never too early to start getting used to the phonemes of Japanese so I'd say get into it. Maybe start with Teppei's beginner podcast. It's very simple Japanese. I talked about this kind of thing in this video about my route from zero to JLPT N1 ruclips.net/video/cAqQNq2Icz8/видео.html
If you have any other questions just let me know and I'll do my best to answer.
@@baribarijapan thank you very much for the reply. I'm having a really hard time retaining anything. I'll go through a lesson in genki a few times and still hardly remember any of the grammer. I'll start listening to the podcast and doing the lessons, hopefully something clicks for me soon. Lol
@@devennagata1759 I think getting some input will help you because you'll hear things in context and they'll make more sense.
The majority of Japanese podcasts seem old skool radio DJ personality driven chat show or news and lifestyle type. Are there any slightly more experimental type shows based purely on subscriber material such as This is Actually Happening or Lets Read? The podcasts seem a bit mundane here, much like the radio. There must be some leftfield stuff out there surely? I havent found anything yet and RUclips seems to be a better place for content perhaps the underground view podcasts a bit like the facebook of the streamed content world.
Yeah, that's true. Podcasts are still kind of unknown in Japan. Most people don't know what they are so there are just less podcasts to begin with. Then I'd say most media is generally less edgy or experimental in Japan. The ones I talked about towards the end of this video are the most interesting ones that I've come across.

Is that your favourite podcast?
List doesn't work.
Hi! What do you mean?
@@baribarijapan impossible to select Japanese text.
@@evgeniyan2426 they are the names of the podcasts. Everyone uses different podcast apps so just search the names on whatever app you use.
@@baribarijapan how to search if you can't select - highlight text ?!! Japanese especially.
@@evgeniyan2426 you can add a Japanese keyboard from your settings
