In this bonus episode, we are joined by Eric Margolis, who recently authored a New York Times article titled, "The Fall of 'Terrace House.'"
He lives in Nagoya, Japan and is a freelance writer. Eric is an avid fan of 'Terrace House' and followed closely as the controversy surrounding incidents involving Hana Kimura on the show escalated. He, like many others, was stunned by Hana's suicide.
Eric let's us know how the article first came about and how it changed in real time as he continued to research the story.
He tells us about conversations he has with cast member's of 'Terrace House' and with Hana's mother, Kyoko.
We also talk about the potential of change as Kyoko tries to ensure Hana's death was not in vain.
We really appreciate Eric taking the time to chat with us. Please have a listen.
