    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 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!
