Naomi Takes America
Do you know me? I’m Naomi Watanabe. I’m a comedian, an influencer, and not to brag, but I’m kind of a big deal in Japan. But... my dream is to make it big in America! On this show, I talk to interesting fans to learn more about American life. Be warned -- my English is not that good yet! But I’m working on it and excited to learn with you all by my side. Come raise me and watch me grow like a Tamagotchi! https://naomitakesamerica.com/ Theme music by Kyle Murdock and Natasha Jacobs
