Sometimes if I'm going into a mixed audience, I'll open with a stupid Japanese pun. futon ga the futon futon da is yes. The futon has flown. But obviously in Japanese, it's better because the two words sound exactly the same. That's the first time you've heard a Japanese joke on a podcast unless of course you're Japanese. Send in your jokes by emailing teacherluke@mailonline.co.uk.
