   excerpt from announcement:

BLA is a podcast channel where authors of scholarly books in the humanities and social sciences talk about their books through interviews in Japanese. BLA is operated by an independent, non-profit group that is not affiliated with any organization or institution.
It is available 2-4 Wednesdays a month via Youtubespotify, google podcast, apple podcast, and stand fm.

This is the best audio media for those who want to know what's going on in Japanese humanities and social sciences. It may also be used for training in academic spoken Japanese. 

You are very welcome to talk about your own book written in English, but interview must be conducted in Japanese.
