#47 Real Issues, Real Voices, Real Japan Podcast – Ed Odeven and Colin Morrison on Naoya Inoue Becoming the Undisputed Bantamweight Champion
Listen in as Ed Odeven and Colin Morrison chat with JAPAN Forward's Galileo Ferrari about boxer Naoya Inoue and his one-sided destruction of British fighter Paul Butler, in their bantamweight title unification bout. The much-anticipated match took place at Tokyo's Ariake Arena on December 13. Morrison's pre-fight analysis suggested Butler would need to rely on his maturity and experience to scrape out a tough win against Inoue. As Odeven declared in his prediction, "Inoue, at age 29, is in the prime of his career." Fans were expected to be treated to another KO or a one-sided domination. And that was what happened.

#46 Real Issues, Real Voices, Real Japan Podcast – Colin Morrison on the FIFA World Cup and Japan's Exciting Run
Listen in as Colin Morrison chats with the JAPAN Forward editorial team regarding the Japan national soccer team's achievement of winning the group stage in the FIFA World Cup. A combination of superb strategic coaching from Hajime Moriyasu and world-class execution by the Samurai Blue produced memorable come-from-behind wins against former FIFA World Cup champions Germany and Spain. The Samurai Blue trailed both games at halftime. Key substitutions and formation changes in both matches impacted the action immediately, resulting in the upset victories over the two European giants. During our conversation, Morrison expressed caution for the round of 16 match against Croatia, and forecast what became a difficult game for Japan. (The Samurai Blue lost 3-1 in the penalty shootout.)
