bmsgTranslation of BE:FIRST's MILLION BILLION PODCAST, Episode 4, July 1st, 2023
Other than BE:FIRST's main MILLION BILLION radio show on J-WAVE every Saturday, they also started the MILLION-BILLION podcast back in June, 2023. In the MILLI-BILLI PODCAST, members answer listener questions, messages, give advice, and / or have discussions around the messages listeners send in. The atmosphere is more relaxed, so I've started listening to them!
All podcast episodes are available on MILLION-BILLION's AMAZON Music page, so feel free to follow along as you listen to the audio. I will have each episode's podcast linked under the cut!
Enjoy!
