Jamie Menon ,

Really original subjects and thoughtfully presented.

Highly recommended. Topics are really wide ranging and can feel random, though all tied together by ‘design’. Absolute favourite… oh, And that voice.

“Life and Death in Singapore” was a good listen!

Really enjoyed the episode “Life and Death in Singapore”! As a Singaporean, I actually had no idea about how Singapore had to demolish that many graves for public housing. A very riveting listen!
