The navigator is novelist Ban Ohara. The guest will be Naoki Matayoshi, who is active as both a comedian and an author. The theme of this program is 'Walking between the lines, the margins of the night.' Sixty minutes where two people who make a living with words quietly exchange words, sparked by a single word. In the program, various 'small dialogues' are woven starting from words deeply related to their works, such as 'wind', 'lonely', 'nature', and 'life and daily routine'. From small talks that give a glimpse into their lives, it eventually turns into a discussion on creation... As their thoughts draw closer or move further apart, a dialogue about 'words' that can only be heard here will emerge. A special program delivered with quality music, featuring talk that unfolds as if tracing ambiguous and rich margins.
