    Ep. 9: The Korean Wave in Singapore (ft. Qayyum Lukman)

    Ever wondered why K-Pop has been so popular in Singapore (and even beyond) despite the language and culture barriers? Well, it is not only because entertainment, language and cultures know no boundaries, but also because of the South Korean government’s efforts in globalising and exporting the Korean culture and entertainment since the 1990s! Join us with our special and returning guest, Qayyum from the Kpop Kaypohs Podcast, in this episode. We unpack how Korean culture has economically and socially benefited South Korea, how globalisation has enabled it to have a stronghold in places like Singapore, the rise of K-Dramas, food and K-Pop fandoms! Who knows, you may be better informed after listening to this episode and find your oppa?

    Ep. 7: The Singaporean Football Culture (ft. Navinkumar Palani and Sabrina Tulos)

    For some of us in Singapore, sports (or in our case football) and identity has always had a rather interesting relationship. From the void decks of your flats to the stadium, there is not a place where you cannot see individuals turn into a pitch. In this episode, join us and our special guest Navin (who got acquainted with our host through football) as we uncover (almost) everything about football - from the football culture and future of football in Singapore, the Premier League and of course, the World Cup!

    What has your party experience been like with clubs finally opening up? In this episode, we are joined by Clement Lee from the Liquid Courage Show, who will share his perception of Singapore's party culture, alongside some crazy M18 experiences. We also discuss whether the party culture should be something that is quintessential to one's youth and whether partying is necessarily an indicator as to whether one has “lived” their youth to the best. Listen to this crazy and fun-filled podcast to better understand the 3Ps - party culture, periods and puking.

    Ep. 4: Finding Representation In Media (ft. Sabrina Tulos)

    Have you ever resonated or identified with character(s) in films? Through identity markers being apparent character archetypes and persona, media tends to convey certain specific ideals, values and even physical traits related to society. Together with our amazing guest, Sabrina Tulos from the Broke Brown Girls Podcast, join us as we unpack representation in media through gendered character archetypes in popular shows and movies, and the algorithms which affect how we consume media. Listen on as we rant and complain about sigma males and the manic pixie dream girl, and dig on individuals who emulate certain characters.

    Ep. 2: The Singaporean Secondary School Experience

    Did your secondary school experience shape your identity (or add on to your traumas sobs)? While most of us have gone through the secondary school system in Singapore, how and why is it that each of us shares unique experiences? Beyond looking at how the lived experience in school shapes our identity, have you wondered how you have shaped theirs? Join Saishwar and Nisha in this episode as they unpack how our secondary school experiences shape us, and listen to them also take part in some trauma-dumping while they are at it Hosted by: Saishwar - https://www.instagram.com/saishpeace/ Nisha - https://www.instagram.com/nisharai_/ Follow us on: Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/identitiesunknownpod/

    Ep. 1: What’s an Identity Marker?

    What is an identity marker? Is it something that never changes? Join Saishwar and Nisha in this identity-centric podcast as we expand on the definition of identity, where we move away from the general notions of identity. Ultimately, one’s identity is an amalgamation of so many things - ranging from lived experiences, relationships, memories, values, the place one resides in and even the food one eats! We hope that through our series, not only do you understand how fluid and broad identity is, but also better understand yourself as an individual!
