Ep 786#781 ft. Zames Chew - Gen Z Handyman Upskilled into a Million-Dollar Repair Business

What if a job most people wouldn’t think twice about became a seven-figure business? Zames Chew, Co-Founder of Repair.sg, comes into the studio to share how hands-on trade skills, not pitch decks, became his biggest competitive edge. From learning repairs on the ground to building a culture of trust, he is removing the stigma around blue-collar trades one customer at a time. We also go deep on why he once felt embarrassed to tell his peers about the business, and why upskilling himself was such a crucial part of his success.𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙚𝙥𝙞𝙨𝙤𝙙𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙗𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙗𝙮 𝙎𝙠𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙨𝙁𝙪𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚 𝙎𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙖𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙚𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙪𝙥𝙨𝙠𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙟𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙣𝙚𝙮 𝙩𝙤𝙙𝙖𝙮 |https://yahlahbut.short.gy/UpskillToday𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗼𝗸 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴Haresh: Pay phone connecting people in liberal San Francisco to conservative Texas in new social experimentTerence: Federer’s Agent on Leaving Nike, Building a Tournament, & More w/ Tony GodsickZames: The Social Network (2010)𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘂𝘀!Drop us an email at [email protected]!

We get Singapore’s favourite funnyman, comedian Rishi Budhrani as a guest host on this episode! You’ll be surprised where we go, as we start with 2 everyday news topics, but end up going deep into what it means to lead a life of meaning. In the first topic, Singapore’s plastic bag charge has raised millions of dollars, but how supermarket chains use the proceeds is drawing scrutiny after they all recently reported the numbers. Does Singapore really need a plastic bag charge? We also dissect a recent workplace survey showing how Singapore workers have one of the lowest happiness levels in the region.

Ep 780#775 ft. Allen Kuo – What Gold’s Rise Means For Singapore and The World | #775

There’s been a lot of renewed interest in gold, so we got Allen Kuo, Chief Investment Officer of Singlife, to walk us through everything we need to know about the asset. He goes deep into the philosophy and history of gold, explaining its value as a riskless benchmark, and more poignantly, what its price can tell us about geopolitics today. We also make a detour into 90s nostalgia and shared culture, plus why it’s important to have physical gold in Singapore’s vaults (but not under our beds).

Scams are getting increasingly common, and we are all at risk. In this episode, we chat with Aaron Chiew, Group Head of Digital Channels, Institutional Banking Group at DBS Bank, who explains why modern scams are less about hacking and more about manipulating trust and routine processes, powered by AI and better “research” on targets. We also explore practical countermeasures companies and employees can use.

Childhood myopia is rising at an alarming rate in Singapore. The good news is it is not inevitable. We sit down with Dr Au Eong Kah Guan to unpack why myopia is so common, why it matters to slow it down early and how parents can take practical, science-backed steps to delay its onset and progression. Dr Au Eong also explains why myopia is increasingly seen as a preventable condition, not just a genetic one.Dr Au Eong is Medical Director and Senior Consultant Ophthalmologist at the International Eye Cataract Retina Centre.Find out more about how early intervention can protect your child’s long-term eye health → yahlahbut.short.gy/childhoodmyopia𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙚𝙥𝙞𝙨𝙤𝙙𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙗𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙗𝙮 𝙊𝙒𝙉𝘿𝘼𝙔𝙎𝘖𝘞𝘕𝘋𝘈𝘠𝘚 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘦𝘺𝘦𝘸𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘑𝘢𝘱𝘢𝘯, 𝘰𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘳𝘦𝘦 𝘦𝘺𝘦 𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘤𝘬𝘴, 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘴𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 1,500 𝘴𝘵𝘺𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘧𝘳𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘴.
