miscast live, documentary, las question cheki session

Happy new year, Derek. Yours started with a big bang. Unfortunately it was the camera, but a good thing you add chaos into your daily routine and have backup. The documentary is also ready to get into the world. I guess everyone who knew about it preordered it already. Now all it needs is some promotion to make it run. So cool this big boulder you were rolling uphill finally rolls down the other side. Now it´s only promoting and spreading the good news into the world. The more people know about it the more are interested. What you really can do extremely well is telling stories and the idol world is full of them. I´m excited for my ordered DVD set to arrive. I loved your Covid Government rant. The Shin Godzilla comparison totally nailed it. Did you know the movie was made by Hideaki Anno? He even delayed his 4th Neon Genesis Evangelion movie to make this one. Totally worth it. The Cheki session with Last Question was so great. The girls are just lovable. And a possible Momoi Photobook would be a cool project for the next months. A cosplay book would be very cool but as you said … here it´s to clarify if that´s possible without hurting actual Anime brands… For this year i´m sure you have some great things in mind and I hope the documentary starts generating much sales after its release and some promotion to fund the creative ideas you have in mind. I hope Miho and Kosame also will become successful. As always. I love what you do and you get my full support wherever possible. Mihos first song instantly gave me an earworm. It keeps flowing inside my head in a permanent loop. Well done. I can´t wait for more of that. But don´t put yourself in stress. In retroperspective you did an insane ton of stuff last year which normally is impossible for a single person to do. Also the variety helps in job description in finding a partner. Music producer, Photographer, Artist and doku writer doesn´t sound too much like idol anymore in the first place. :-P But seriously. I really hope you will meet someone to appreciate what you do to have a solid common base. See ya soon.

Heya Derek, thanks for another podcast. Here in the Netherlands we've been in a new lockdown since half-December. So far cases aren't getting lower and the end of lockdown should be in sight, but considering the amount of cases I think it'll be extended. It sucks, I'm only getting paid for 25% and it doesn't seem to help. But we're starting vaccinating (all over in Europe tbh!) So we should be vaccinated in a few months. Oh well, we'll see how this all develops The Last Question cheki session was so much fun, the girls are absolutely lovable. I can't wait to meet them eventually <3 I'm happy to hear you will do the groups that have already done a cheki session do it again. I had to budget and miss out on a lot so I hope next time finances are less tight. I'm sorry to always be complaining on money, but I always feel guilty for not supporting more. As for Miho's cheki session, I'd prefer it to be live. It being live usually makes it more fun and interactive! But if you think it won't work well, then I can understand. Hang in there Derek, have a good day. Love, Romy <3

Go to the hospital! That's all I got to say, as it is the most important thing to say. My friend broke his hand once, never went to the doctor and his hand has never been the same since. Phantom pain, bones set improperly, etc. So get it checked out! We'll talk soon.
