The BS Yoshimoto program 'Higashino Yamanouchi no Input,' starring Higashino Koji and Yamanouchi Ryota (Nankai Candies), will air its Episode #66 on June 21 (Sunday). The regular broadcast airs every third and fourth Sunday of the month at 11:00 PM (or fourth and fifth Sundays in five-week months).
Short-form clips from the show have surpassed 10 million views!
'Higashino Yamanouchi no Input' features Higashino, who hosts numerous regular programs and serves as BS Yoshimoto's PR Director, and Yamanouchi, MC of the morning information show 'DayDay.' Together, they 'input' entertaining content and hidden gems presented by up-and-coming comedians.
The episode opens with Yamanouchi sharing exciting news: 'I heard the program’s clip videos have reached 10 million views!' prompted by Higashino’s comment, 'It feels boastful, but go ahead.' He highlights the astronomical success of the 'Kamakura Shogunate' episode presented by Okuda Shuji of Gakutensoku, which caused a major sensation. Higashino responds with, 'That’s astronomical!', sparking laughter.
The presenter for Episode #66 is Watanabe Ginji (Don Décorté). When news surfaces that a web CM featuring Watanabe for a major fast-food chain hit 30 million views within four days of release, Higashino proudly retorts, 'Our Okuda reached 10 million!' Yamanouchi can only offer a wry smile, muttering, 'We’re losing...!'
The theme this time is suits. The hosts begin by closely examining the details of Watanabe’s meticulously crafted outfit—why he opts for suspenders over belts, the cut of his double-breasted vest, and even his choice of shoes. Both Higashino and Yamanouchi are deeply intrigued by Watanabe’s sartorial dedication.
Who wears suits well among comedians?
Watanabe passionately extols the virtues of suits, emphasizing their 'exceptional functionality in social life.' He delves into historical aspects like the origins of single- and double-breasted jackets, shares trivia such as how button-down collars came to be, and explains etiquette rules like 'always unbutton your jacket when sitting down.'
Higashino then asks, 'From your perspective, Watanabe-san, who among comedians do you think wears suits particularly well?' Watanabe names a fellow comedian.
The conversation then shifts to tie-tying techniques. Watanabe conducts an impromptu 'Tie-Tying Workshop' for the two hosts, introducing various knot styles with visual aids.
Finally, Watanabe shares his heartfelt conclusion: 'In summary...'—revealing his genuine thoughts, which naturally draw laughs.
'Higashino Yamanouchi no Input' airs every Sunday at 11:00 PM (including reruns). Missed episodes are available for free on the BS Yoshimoto Video Distribution Page for two weeks after broadcast and are also released on YouTube via the 'BS Yoshimoto Official Channel.'
