<h3> His private life is just like Ametalk!</h3>
<p> &#8220;Hey, over here!　This way! Tetsuro Degawa (62) was waving his hand as fast as he could in Daikanyama, Tokyo, late at night. One night in early April, he was enjoying a meal with his junior comedian duo, Horiken and Goriken (52).</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"><span class="strong-in-content"> The three of them were talking to each other, and it sounded like a business trip version of &#8220;Ametalk! It was like a business trip version of &#8220;Ametalk!</span></span></p>

<p> The party started after 8:00 p.m. and ended at around 1:00 a.m., which was more than five hours long.</p>
<p> However, it is a mark of a popular comedian that he always adds a &#8220;punchline&#8221; at the end of the party. In front of the payment machine at the coin-operated parking lot where he had parked his beloved Porsche, Izukawa was looking impatiently at the machine, saying, &#8220;Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no! It seemed that he could not see the coin slot of the machine due to his old eyesight and could not put in the money. When it came to Holiken, he was splattering coins all over the street. The two showed their clumsy behavior off camera, and then laughed at each other as they headed home.</p>

<p> The time he spent with his trusted friends must have been a precious &#8220;recharge&#8221; time for him.</p>
