    EP 24: What's your dating/work type? 9 Enneagram types for you to know

    Should I put my personality type on my dating profile? Am I more compatible with certain types? Can I project a different type at work? Our obsession with personality tests is not new. It's increasingly a part of workplace hiring, we've all done Facebook quizzes, plus if you scroll through your dating apps you're bound to see something like, "I'm an ISTJ if that matters...". We sit down with the Founder of Singapore's Enneagram Academy @cindy_enneagram for a deep dive into the 9 types and the answers to our burning questions.

    EP 23: Is the Singaporean Dream...falling apart?

    You meet your sweetheart at 21 in university. Things go smoothly with Jun Jie. You bid for your BTO and get it on the first try. After school is done, you land the perfect job that pays well. You move out. You can now buy your cartier watch. You tie the knot at Sentosa Cove. Kids, car, condo, dog, exotic holidays every year....then, you wake up. IT WAS ALL JUST A DREAM ! It's Monday and you're back to work... With inflation and hyper-competition still existing, where does the Singaporean Dream go from here? What does happiness even mean? Do we still care about the 5Cs? In this special podcast collaboration, we sit down in our (makeshift therapy circle) with UOKORNOT to talk about our pursuits and living life such that we are more than just the moolah. What’s your Singaporean dream? Tell us in the comments. 🫡 Equipment support: Blackmagic Design, Audio-Technica, City Music - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera 4K⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - Lens: Olympus 12-100mm f/4 Lens - ATR2100xUSB dynamic mic - Zoom PodTrak P4 Fresh Off The Pod is an infotainment podcast from *SCAPE (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@scapesg⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠).

    EP 21: Grandmas crushing glass ceilings? ft. 67yo model @grey_evolution

    As Michelle Yeoh said in her Oscar acceptance speech, “ladies, don't ever let anyone tell you you are past your prime.” Together with our elegant gran-fluencer Yan, we sit down for an honest conversation about womanhood, the fear of ageing (hi retinols) and most importantly, embracing beauty at every age. Check out Fashion For Cancer, a charity fashion show (32:15) organized by Yan for cancer survivors as runway models to showcase their dignity, strength, and resilience.

    EP 20: Lei-ho-ma? Speaking up for our dialects ft. @grandmotherstories

    Eh. Gong simi? Many young Singaporeans might not be too familiar with their native dialects today, but it doesn’t have to always be this way. Apart from swapping tea with your ahma, tracing our dialects will help us ✨reconnect ✨with our cultural heritage and grasp our roots more deeply. Also, love advice from your ahma in Cantonese hits different with Josiah Leong, who is grandson to the cutest grandma on TikTok. Remember to tell your grandparents you love them after listening to this. (Which btw, is Wa-ai-li in Hokkien).

    EP 18: Friendship Breakups, Work Bestie & Growing Up

    Late-night suppers, crying over the phone, friendship dates. F is for friends who do stuff together! As adulting creeps into the picture, upkeeping our friendships (or making new ones) suddenly seems a little harder. There's a lot of talk about romantic love, and somehow, we seem to give platonic love a little less weight. But studies have shown that people with strong friendships tend to flourishmore in both physical and mental health, and can even boost your immunity. Together with Jonathan Chan (@j0nb0n1_1), we talk about the joy of unexpected friendships, smoothening out friendship kinks, learning through our friendship breakups and most importantly, being grateful for our support systems. Go grab your friends, tell them you love them and together, live long and prosper!
