    #246 LOSING OUR SALARIES TO AYAM GEPUK, POKÉMON CARDS & LEGOS

    Adult money sounded A LOT cooler when we were kids? Turns out it mostly goes to insurance, impulsive makeup purchases, Pokémon cards, and lots of emotional damage. In this episode, we unpack our first paychecks, childhood money trauma, and the deeply Malaysian experience of saying “I’m just looking only” before spending on Japanese knives we don’t need. Watch the full episode to see how we used our adult money to heal our inner child.If you love the furniture on our new set, you can shop on ruma: You can find their outlets across Malaysia, including Petaling Jaya, Johor Bahru, Nilai, Penang, Shah Alam, and Kuantan. https://www.ruma-home.com/

    #243 PEOPLE WHO HAVE WRONGED US: ARE WE TOO PETTY?

    Are we easy to forgive, or is there a dark spirit still festering in our hearts?In this episode, we talk about the people who’ve wronged us, the grudges we swear we’ve moved on from, and the arguments we keep winning in the shower. Is there a “correct” way to react when someone hurts you? And when does being understanding turn into being dumb?It’s all here: the resentment, the rage, and the petty little thoughts we usually keep to ourselves.#youmightwannasitdownforthispodcast Follow The Takeaway Table!https://www.instagram.com/thetakeawaytable/ Join our Community Discord Server!https://discord.gg/thetakeawaytable Follow The Takeaway Table!https://www.instagram.com/thetakeawaytable/ Check out our hosts on Instagram!MingH: https://instagram.com/dmingthingMingY: https://instagram.com/mingasaur
