Monday Late Show Episode 542

Murakami shared a story where an iron bar for hanging clothes suddenly fell onto his head, to which Matsuko responded by asking him to do some sort of consultation. First topic of the day is the "2023 Yofukashi Halloween Contest", which included a cosplay of the Kuuya statue from Rokuharamitsu Temple, the Matsuko cosplayer from Ep. 282, a cosplay of the Benesse logo, and the girl from Ep. 499 who now cosplayed a client looking at rented property. The hosts decided that the last girl was the winner for this year. Next is an interview about people's jobs, in which the staff found a worker at a chubby maid cafe, a plant trimmer at the highway, a rental ninja, and a man who worked as an extra in dramas. The hosts then reacted to the research of the mass of defecation by an average adult in their lifetime. They then moved on to the local problems segment where Osaka residents barely read books despite being ranked second nationally in the number of bookstores, some backwards words in Kagawa, a takoyaki seller who is afraid of octopus and a woman who has a weird hole in her mouth palate. Lastly, the hosts were asked to do a personality test by choosing 3 words from the provided board. (Source: Griffin Seannery at MyDramaList)
