A fateful encounter or parting

This month’s theme is fatal encounters and partings, but what does fatal look like?

I don’t think I’ve ever had a fictional encounter or parting like in a manga or novel.
I’ve always been insensitive to encounters and partings, or rather, I don’t want so much drama in my life, I want to live with as few ups and downs as possible.
I want to live my life with as little ups and downs as possible. I’ve been living like this for about 30 years, so basically I don’t reject anything that comes my way, I don’t chase anything that goes my way, and I want to live my life as if encounters and partings are just something that pass by every day.

However, if it is fate that I become interested in or addicted to something through a chance encounter, it is radio to me that I often encounter such unknown people and things.
I listen to the radio all the time when I’m in the car or lazing around at home, and I’ll happen to hear a song that gets me hooked on a band I’ve never heard of, or a story about a person whose name I’ve never even heard of will suddenly stick with me. I guess you could say it’s fate, and I think that radio is a great way to meet people.

Of all the radio personalities, the ones I fell in love with the most were the Tokyo radio personalities.
He’s an interesting speaker and a good guest talker. He also plays the guitar and writes lyrics, and his songs are very good. It’s no exaggeration to say that I’m currently the most addicted person in my life, and that’s how much I like him.
I like him so much, but I have yet to meet any other fans besides myself.
He’s from Mikage in Kobe, Hyogo Prefecture, and his radio show is only in Tokyo, but he used to have a special corner at Tawareko in Sannomiya, so I think he’s pretty famous.
If you know him, you can find out who he is with this information, but on an anonymous blog, even if someone knows who he is, you can’t connect with him.
Oh, I wonder if I’ll ever meet a fellow fan of this person by fate.
