TOKYO MX (Tokyo area: terrestrial 9ch) is broadcasting "Savanna Takahashi's Sauna God" (every other Saturday 18:00-18:30), a sauna talk program where Shigeo Takahashi of Savanna, known for his love of saunas, welcomes various guests to a sauna. After they are thoroughly "refreshed" both physically and mentally, he asks them about their "refreshed moments" in life – their "turning points."
This Saturday, May 2nd, the program will feature Yusuke Inoue of the comedy duo NON STYLE as a guest, broadcast from Jujoyu (Kita-ku, Tokyo).
The opening will start with a story from a group date in Osaka over 20 years ago, which both found memorable. What did Takahashi say to Inoue, who even then – as a comedian – captivated the scene with games rather than talk, a memory Inoue still cherishes?
Inside the sauna, the topic shifts to his iconic "narcissistic character." He confessed that after winning the M-1 Grand Prix, his manager told him, "We're going to market you as an MC from now on, so please stop that." He temporarily sealed it away, following the advice, but found he couldn't perform well without the character. So, he went to a hair salon and ordered "the most narcissistic hairstyle," resulting in his famous asymmetrical hair. He also discusses why he continues his "narcissistic selfies" on Instagram, even though he considered stopping in his 40s.
After the sauna session leaves their minds and bodies "refreshed," they dive into a candid talk about "refreshed moments" in life. When he was in elementary school, he dreamed of being an "elementary school teacher," but after seeing Eiji Bando on "Magical Brain Power!!," he began to long for the world of television. The turning point came in his third year of university. When he heard that Ishida, a classmate from junior high and high school, was quitting his office job to pursue comedy, Inoue was asked, "Why don't we do it together?" That's how NON STYLE began. Without even joining an agency, they performed street漫才 (manzai) in front of Sannomiya Station. After being accosted by a drunk customer who said, "You're not funny at all," he was spurred on, thinking, "Let's just do manzai to show that salaryman!" Three months later, they had created 20 five-minute routines, and audiences began to gather. However, after joining Yoshimoto and performing on stage, he panicked, thinking, "There are so many funny people here," and felt completely helpless. While struggling in that situation, Tamura of Kirin gave him advice: "Even if you slip up, step forward." How did Tamura's words change Inoue? The program delves into Inoue's "refreshed moment," which can be called the origin of his current "positive narcissist" persona.
Furthermore, don't miss this valuable talk, which can only be heard after being "refreshed" in the sauna, covering topics from Inoue's recommended latest beauty methods, worries about his wife's "fandom activities," to legendary episodes of the "master of positivity," Sanma-san!
