Tadanobu Asano joins Kyle Meredith to talk about the massive success of the FX/Hulu series Shogun. Listen to the new episode above or wherever you get your podcasts, and watch the full interview below.

The Japanese actor, who portrays Kashigi Yabushige, dives into the complexities of embodying a character from the 1600s, his attraction to unlikable roles, and the blurred lines between good and bad within the world of Shogun. He then discusses the many practical difficulties the production faced, as well as the importance of having a mostly Asian crew.

Also a punk rock musician, Asano then talks about his next musical project, which is shaping up to be influenced by ska (perhaps an appearance on In Defense of Ska is in order).
