Herman reports from Japan on what makes its cities function so remarkably well, from spotless streets to world-class public transit that reaches even the smallest villages. The hosts explore how intentional urban design choices around pedestrianisation, zoning, and convenience culture create environments where walking 20,000 steps feels effortless and freedom means not needing a car.
