Dato' Sri Bernard Chandran
At a very young age, he already found the love for design, having gone to Sungei Wang to buy materials to make his own outfits. After a brief spell in accounting, just to please his parents, he decided to stop, and take a leap into the career that he loved, and went on to study in a local fashion school. Flash forward, he has designed outfits for the Pahang and Brunei royal families, and celebrities like Lady Gaga and Estelle.

Talkback Thursday: Do you feel that you have job security?
There’s an article in the Malay Mail about how Malaysians with Master’s degrees are finding it difficult to land solid, well-paying jobs. According to the report, high-paying jobs are scarce and with a growing number of degree holders competing for them, even a good Master’s degree doesn’t give you that edge. Statistics from various agencies are indicating that hiring growth has not caught up with the supply of both undergraduates and postgraduates. So we’d like to ask you today, does the job situation concern you? Do you feel that you have job security?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

May the Force be with you in this podcast.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

(Untitled) #61 feat. Colour and The Shape, by Foo Fighters
Arguably one of their best albums to date, the Foo Fighters' Colour and the Shape injected just about the right melodies to make this rock record a huge hit. The band had pushed themselves hard, under the guidance of Pixies producer Gil Norton. And the result gave us super singles like 'Monkey Wrench', 'My Hero', 'Everlong' and the ballad-y 'Walking After You'. Join Ezra and Uma as they bring us through this rock piece with some golden nuggets about the album along the way.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Difficulty in Adopting Stateless Children
The recent Al-Jazeera piece on how rampant baby selling is in Malaysia left many of us angry, sad and disgusted. But there are some people out there who feel that the only reason why many childless couples resort to this is because of the convoluted adoption and citizenship process that has often left many stateless babies and children high and dry. Child rights activist Dr Hartini Zainuddin and lawyer Nizam Bashir joins us in this difficult discussion about the little-known but existing adoption and citizenship limbo.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Yingtze
Hailing from Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, one must wonder how she got into cosplaying in the first place. That, however, wouldn't be a problem to talk about for Yingtze, who made a name for herself in the field, since starting in 2005. Now, she has gone for guest cosplaying gigs in several countries, and she makes her own outfits! One for the geek culture lovers to savour, this.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Life's A Pitch, 28 November 2016
Craig, Keeshaanan & Pravin discuss Chelsea v Spurs and Tottenham's "soft" centre. Do they have the mettle to win a title? Will Chelsea's closest challengers be Man City? They won a tough match at Burnley. Maybe Liverpool, who had to overcome a very stubborn Sunderland side. Plus, the match of the weekend! Swansea 5 Crystal Palace 4. Were both defences that bad or were the forwards that good? We also ask, What's wrong at Man United? Everton? Winners & Losers of the weekend and Malaysia's performance at the AFF Suzuki Cup. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Bibi Kay Poh
Bibi Kay Poh is now one of the biggest drag queen (not by size, by reputation)to grace the Malaysian comedy scene. Starting off with humble beginnings performing at Haw Par Villa, where he performs]ed and brushed shoulders with the likes of Kumar the Drag Queen and Gurmit Singh to having a set show today at Suzie Wong, he has quite a bit to tell us, and we got him to sit down with us to do just that.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Teaching Creativity

We speak with two teachers who come from two distinct perspectives to nurture creativity in their students - Teoh Poh Yew, who teaches creative mathematics through games; and Bernice Chauly, director of the KL Writers Workshop.

Full EPL weekend preview, Treatment Table and 3 Big Shouts!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rozella
Winner of this year's edition of Tiger Jams, Rozella was not the Rozella that we know of today. Back in her younger days she was a shy girl who would sit at the corner of the class, writing lyrics. After a stint working a desk job, she finally decided that music was her thing; and the rest is history. It took her a while to build up the courage, but with the success that she's had, it was all worth it.

Keep It Local
In a country where there is a lack of initiative from a lot of proper talents to get themselves out there, a group of people, led by Jude Ashvin in 2014 formed an initiative by the name of Keep It Local. This group aims to give the proper exposure to the local acts in the country that need it, and they have been able to do that, with names like Cody "Coex" Foo, also a guest for tonight, bursting into the scene, along with a number of acts signed under the KIL umbrella.

(Untitled) #60 feat. The Black Album, by Metallica
25 years ago, metal gods Metallica released one of the biggest-selling albums of all time. The Black Album produced huge hits like 'Enter Sandman', 'Nothing Else Matters' and 'Wherever I May Roam', and was considered a major turning point for the band because it indicated that they were moving from pure thrash metal to wanting to reach a more mainstream audience - and that move paid off. Join Ezra and Uma in reliving that time in 1991 when Metallica hit all the right notes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Living a Good Life in a Bad World
We’re coming up towards the end of 2016 and the world seems like it’s in a bad place. Extreme elements of society sound more vocal than ever before. The Brexit and Donald Trump have shocked the Western world. And over here, in Southeast Asia, we seem to struggle with a pervasive lawlessness at every level of society. Today, on The Evening Edition, Uma speaks to Professor AC Grayling - one of our greatest living philosophers - about that perennial question of how to live a good life in a bad world.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jonathan Goon
Founder and owner of prop-making company, Helios E, he started off his career in propmaking in 2005, and he has never looked back since. This man right here has devoted himself to prop-making, much so that he was asked to help Daft Punk out during his time in Australia! We sit the self-acclaimed Malaysia's No.1 Ghostbusters fan to tell his story.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Being a Woman in Science
Off the top of your head, name some women scientists. Very likely, your answer would only be Marie Curie. We know Einstein, we know Tesla, and even the more contemporary ones like Michio Kaku and Neil deGrasse Tyson...all male scientists. Where are women's contributions in science and why are women scientists so unheard of? We get answers to those exact questions from theoretical physicist Shohini Ghose. She also gives us a 101 on what quantum physics is and about her experience of being a minority in the world of science. Shohini Ghose is also the director of Laurier's Centre for Women in Science.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Life's A Pitch, 21 November 2016

Do We Own What We Buy?
You're a big fan of Harry Potter. You walk into a bookstore and you buy a book and an e-book. You may think you own both copies but do you really? Think about it, can you lend, resell, or leave that e-book in your will? We speak to Aaron Perzanowski about the changing idea of ownership. He is the author of The End of Ownership: Personal Property in the Digital Economy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Talkback Thursday: Is homework still relevant?
A school in Scotland, has stopped setting homework for its 175 pupils, after 80% of pupils and more than 60% of their parents voted in favour of scrapping homework altogether. Instead of homework, the children will be encouraged to read books and comics, and to play. We’re looking at a far more comprehensive and holistic approach to learning these days (in line with the new education blueprint) and the question is whether our traditional emphasis on homework really meets today’s learning needs? On Talkback Thursday this evening, we're asking: Is homework still relevant? Our lines will be open.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Life's A Pitch, 14 November 2016
Dez, Craig & Kam join Ross to discuss Gareth Southgate. Should he/When will he get the job? What of Scotland? Who can replace Gordon Strachan.

Also, Asian Qualifiers, South America and International friendlies.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Walter Hong
His story of going into the stand up comedy scene isn't through a common platform. For an Asian comic to start off in Laugh Factory's Chocolate Sundaes, which features a dominantly African American audience, you'd say he hit big time. Much so, as he became a regular on Chocolate Sundaes in just 2 shows, and eventually becoming a regular at The Laugh Factory. He flies down to Malaysia for his tour around Asia, and we caught up with him to get him to tell us his side of the story, of an Asian comic in America.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Disneyland Experience
Growing up, it’s likely that endless hours of your childhood were spent as an ardent consumer and lover of all that Disney had to offer.

We examine the phenomenon that is Disneyland, as a thematic and cultural experience.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Thank Friday It's Football, 11 November 2016

England v Scotland, France v Sweden, Wales v Serbia. We also chat Malaysia v PNG, USA v Mexico and give you 3 Big Shouts.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Armon
ARMON may not be a familiar name in the music industry, and much so, because he had only been in the scene for 2 years. Fresh from his album launch on the 5th of November, the rapper heavily invested his time on getting the launch to be a success, which ultimately happened. We sit him down to pick his brains about jumping in to the scene full time, and what is it that's holding a lot of Malaysian musicians back.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
