    #579 - Lee Hsien Yang: Political Refugee? & Trump ‘Works’ at McDonald’s

    Somehow, NINE years after Mr Lee Kuan Yew left us, we’re still talking about his former house at 38 Oxley Road. This time it’s because his daughter Dr Lee Wei Ling recently passed away, leaving the house vacant and reigniting the debate over its fate. We look at claims that her brother Lee Hsien Yang has been making about the house and Singapore in general while in self-exile and… is it just us, or is this becoming tiring? On the other side of the world, Donald Trump continues his last-ditch campaign for the US Presidency by doing a half-hour shift at McDonald’s??

    #577 - Government Blocks NTUC Income-Allianz Deal At The Last Minute & Simu Liu Calls Out Cultural Appropriation of Bubble Tea

    We all thought it was a done deal, but the Singapore Government has swooped in to block the sale of a majority stake of local insurer NTUC Income, to German company Allianz. Why? Well, buckle up–this episode gets pretty technical! We also look at the bigger questions Singaporeans are asking, like should we be grateful that such a bad deal got caught, or worried it almost went through? In other news, Simu Liu of Shang-Chi fame slammed a Canadian company for marketing its bubble tea drinks without acknowledging the drink’s Taiwanese origins. As they say, not all heroes wear capes!

It's called "Zombie Safari" & it's Singapore's first adult-animated series about a Zombie apocalypse involving talking animals at a Zoo.

    #575 - Spanish Couple Detained for Protesting Singaporean Ownership of Valencia FC & PM Wong Flies Scoot

    This episode we ask: when is a protest, a protest? A Spanish couple on their honeymoon here are providing a fascinating test case. They held up signs denouncing Singaporean Peter Lim’s ownership of football club Valencia, and were shocked when they were not allowed to leave the country. Even with our stringent rules, this feels like a stretch. Join us as we speculate on where the tipping point is, and why! Separately, Prime Minister Lawrence Wong has been hailed for his humility after he was seen taking a budget airline after a work trip in Laos. But what exactly are the rules surrounding politicians and air travel?
