Favourite program or on air person/announcer:
When I was a high school student, I was into "All night Nippon", 25:00-27:00 on Monday - Saturday. Shofukutei Tsurukoh, Tamori, George Tokoro, and Nakajima Miyuki was my all time favourite DJs. Still it is on air but DJs are completely different. "All Night Nippon" is one the most famous radio program in Japan.
