Joe Biden announced Kamala Harris as a running mate, which makes her the first Indian-American VP Candidate (she’s also half-Jamaican). It’s still US politics, but how could it affect us here in Sg? Elsewhere, Naomi Neo, one of the biggest influencers in Singapore, made a video about getting her dream car - a Lamborghini Huracan. Yay or nay?

We’ve talked about TrueLove.Is’ videos in the past. And now we talk to them FACE-TO-FACE. We know we’re not from the LGBTQ community, which is why we will be getting a guest who is for one of the next episodes. We’re also trying to get a guest from one of the churches who have different approaches to LGBTQ. In the meantime, we hope this is thought-provoking, and if y’all have questions or comments, head on over to our YLB Subreddit :) Listen to the other 2 episodes in this trilogy exploring LGBTQ and religion!

2020 hasn’t been great for Ellen, but is shit finally hitting the fan for her? But are claims of her and her “toxic work culture” fair, justified or even surprising?

Earlier this week, a FB post by Meng Shuen Koh about his interactions with an elderly cleaner went viral, but after the Govt and MP Tan Chuan Jin stepped in, the Internet was divided. Why?

A few days ago, a FB post by Mr Johann Loh calling for Singlish to be cancelled (along with 8 reasons why) went viral. Should it? Elsewhere, WP’s Pritam Singh and Leader of Opposition, will be getting twice the monthly allowance of an MP (SGD385,000 a year). Was it a masterstroke by the PAP? Note: We recorded this BEFORE Mr Singh announced what he’ll be doing with his increased salary, so just a heads up.

It’s been an interesting 2 weeks - appearing as guests on the No.1 Podcast in Singapore, having both XiaXue and Narelle Kheng on our podcasts, and getting A LOT of feedback on those episodes from our fans. We wrap our heads around all of that and respond to the feedback.

In a special episode, we have a heart-to-heart with XiaXue and talk about stuff she’s never talked about before. Cancel culture, her recent convos with Narelle Kheng, and lots more. Whatever you think of her, you can’t deny that she’s influential. But at what cost to her own personal life?

This week, Mediacorp faced backlash (again) for a CH8 drama with a character who is gay, a paedophile AND an STD-character. Fair criticism? Elsewhere, we wrap our heads around a video by TrueLove.Is about a “sexually-addicted” gay man who overcame his desires.

It’s a historic moment in SIngapore’s history and well, it’s been a ride. We try to wrap our heads around what results mean, whether the PAP will change and what the next 5 years could look like.

Just when we thought the “XX vs. Cancel Culture” was done, in steps Narelle Kheng (of Sam Willows fame). As “XX vs Narelle” went from tense to cordial and then INTENSE again, we wonder if it’s even possible for opposing views to be shared. We also address some comments on Reddit about “Cancel Culture”.

It’s DAY 9 and it’s time to COOL OFF. So no talk about p******s or G*2020. Instead, we talk about XiaXue’s diss on “cancel culture”. Do we agree or disagree?

It’s DAY 8, and we focus on an ST Article about WP’s Tan Chen Chen, but with a dubious headline. Is that responsible, given that people are deciding their votes? Elsewhere, XiaXue polarizes (again) but claws back (again). Our #YLB Subreddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/YahLahBut/ This has links to all the things we refer to in the podcast! Peace!

It’s DAY 7, and the drama continues. A ridiculous press release from the PAP about WP’s Raeesah Khan caused the Internet to erupt, but who’s to blame? And is it a good thing that people are using police reports to report everyone? Elsewhere, Dr Tambyah get’s POFMA-ed while RP’s Charles Yeo gives us much-needed sunlight and happiness. Our #YLB Subreddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/YahLahBut/ This has links to all the things we refer to in the podcast! Peace!

It’s DAY 6 and boy oh boy, did things change overnight. A police report filed against 2 tweets made by WP’s Raeesah Khan has divided Singapore. But what does it all mean? Elsewhere, “Aunty” Shirley shares her political views in a viral self-filmed video, and Lim Tean spends 12 minutes slamming MP Jo Teo. Our #YLB Subreddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/YahLahBut/ This has links to all the things we refer to in the podcast! Peace!

It’s DAY 5 and the “10m population” controversy is only getting more heat. Doesn’t help that the PAP used “domestic abuse” as an analogy in an official press release. We also explore why Chee Soon Juan is such a polarising figure. Elsewhere, filmmaker Anthony Chen writes an open letter to Hwa Chong, and how come there are no new Indian PAP candidates? Our #YLB Subreddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/YahLahBut/ This has links to all the things we refer to in the podcast! Peace!

It’s DAY 4 and with all the buzz about how the OPPOSITION is “doing great”, we ask ourselves - are they really? So we try being 100% Pro-PAP and Anti-Opposition, with help from 2 online posts that have gone viral. Elsewhere, did MP Masagos make a booty call? And the real Charles Yeo (Reform Party) finally stands up. Our #YLB Subreddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/YahLahBut/ This has links to all the things we refer to in the podcast! Peace!

It's DAY 3 and we review the party broadcast from last night. We talk about their thoughts, styles and beards.

It’s DAY 2, and we’re still reeling from the excitement of the Live Debates from last night that saw PAP vs SDP vs PSP vs WP. And things got tense. So we wrap our heads around what happened then, and since. We also talk about an “advisory” Hwa Chong email, unapproved PAP banners and a REAL East Coast Plan.

Ivan Lim probably holds the record for the shortest political career in Singapore, but did he have to withdraw? Was the Internet backlash warranted?

Everyone knows the elections are coming, but did PAP Minister Tan Wu Meng have to resort to a personal attack on Alfian, based solely on his Facebook Posts? Or is that a sign of things to come? Elsewhere, Jessica Loh (@shiberty) caused a furore after calling her domestic helper a “c*nt” and “b*itch), and locked horns with an advocacy group. Was it just a harmless rant?

A Sunday Times article named the top 5 essential and non-essential jobs, based on a survey. And “Artists” were deemed the most non-essential, but is that fair?

A photo taken in 2016, of RI students wearing “blackface”, sent the Internet into uproar this week. It had a good ending, but how responsible should people be for their actions in the past?

Clubs and clubbers held 'farewell' parties ahead of stricter Covid-19 measures and got slammed by the public (and a Minister and at least 1 doctor). So should people socialize at all if Singapore isn’t in lockdown? And can business be blamed for wanting to squeeze out some revenue?

Melissa Chen, a SG-born activist in the US famous for helping Amos Yee get asylum, faced backlash this week for using a picture of a local wet market in an article about Chinese wet markets. Why? In another picture that pissed off a bunch of people, a parody Facebook page called “NUS Atheist Society” posted a pic of a Quran next to a Bible with the caption “For use during toilet paper shortages".
