Sugachan Saikou No.1 (Party-chan) and New-Gen Stars Host a Youth-Centric Talk Variety Show! 'Uchira no Iibun!' Welcomes Radio Veteran Rena Yazaki on July 31 (Fri)!

The FM radio program 'Uchira no Iibun!' (Fridays, 27:00–29:00), produced by Japan FM Network Co., Ltd. (hereinafter JFNC) and broadcast nationwide across 32 JFN-affiliated stations, will welcome Rena Yazaki as its 5th-week special partner on the July 31 (Fri) episode.

[July 2026's 5th-Week Special Partner: Rena Yazaki!]

In a world where societal expectations make life difficult despite the illusion of free expression, 'Uchira no Iibun!' brings together young people who want to voice their opinions (iibun), seek fairer (even) conversations, and freely share their honest thoughts, frustrations, claims, and passions. For its 5th week featuring a special guest, July’s partner is Rena Yazaki!

Sugachan Saikou No.1, who previously faced multiple mishaps while substituting on TOKYO FM’s 'Rena Yazaki’s Something I’ve Always Wanted to Say,' will team up with her radio senior Rena Yazaki to learn about on-air personality skills.

[July 31 (Fri) Message Theme: 'My Former Self’s Iibun' – Deadline: July 22 (Wed)]

Share stories about your past life: 'Actually, I used to be a comedian!', 'As a former flight attendant, let me tell you something!', 'I used to be a farmer, now I’m a fisherman!', 'I was student council president, but…' — we want to hear your 'former ○○' stories.

We’re collecting your iibun and personal episodes. Send us your messages!

As the program is pre-recorded, we collect messages in advance each week. Please submit your message by around [July 22 (Wed)]. Selected contributors will receive an exclusive program sticker!
