  Speaker 1: Wake up.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Up next to you.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: Kicking off your day in the best way. It's Sonia
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: and Joakim on the shock circuit. Good morning. Happy Tuesday.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: Welcome to the show. How's your week going so far?
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Hope it went well. Day two of Leve tickets here
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: on the show. Oh yes, and potentially $7000 coming your way.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Lots of fantastic stuff just for you. Make sure you
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: stay tuned. Singapore's number one hit music station.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: Whatever happened to Lil Nas's ex? Taking a holiday because
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: this man intended, you didn't get my joke, but OK.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: He was all over the place. I think he was
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: doing loads of campaigns with coach. He had loads of
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: fashion things lined up for him and suddenly just disappeared
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: for a while. I'm just doing a quick search right now.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: Um, OK, now I know why. He's, he's been involved with, um,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: a legal case, I think. So, yeah, so I think
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: I'm just looking, there are some charges going on. I
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: think you better go take a read and take a look.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: I actually didn't know that this was going on as well, um,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: but it's all over the news in the US especially.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: He's only 26, by the way, but
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Unfortunately, I think he's gotten himself in a bit of
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: a legal situation that could explain why he's so quiet.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: And forgive me for being a little bit ignorant or
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: assuming they look the same, but when I was watching
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: the F1 movie for the 1st 5 minutes, I thought
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Damson Idris, who played Joshua Pierce, I thought he was
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: Lion's ex. They don't look anything alike. Exactly. Forgive me,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: forgive me for thinking they look alike.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: OK, some thoughts, some thoughts just let it come and go,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: you know. When we come back, if your dream is
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: to be an astronaut, maybe this particular happening right now
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: for humankind can make your dreams come true in the future.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Nothing to do with our horoscopes or anything, right? No, no, no,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: real life situations has everything to do with Mercury in retrograde. OK.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Sorry. Good.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: A rising Jesus.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Not with Jesus, I mean, but with Artemis too. OK.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: You know, the world is all sorts of crazy right now.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Very few reasons to smile. You don't say, yeah, but
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: I think this is something that might make all of
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: us go wow and maybe dream big if you're tuned
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: into this. So congratulations to astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Christina Koch, and Jeremy Haven. They are on board the
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Artemis 2 right now as we speak and the
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Four of them have flown farther from Earth than anybody
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: else in the world. Yeah, so they, they've broken Apollo
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: 13's record, which was set close to almost 66 years
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: ago where they, they now for for Apollo 13, they've
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: flown 400,000 kilometers away from Earth, OK? For the Artemis 2.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: And this is a rough estimate. They've flown 406,769 km
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: away from Earth. And how long is their journey? I
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: think they might be coming back very soon. Oh, so
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: it's a round trip. So they're not landing. Their mission,
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: inverted commas, is to travel around the moon. OK, so
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: they'll be seeing the dark side of the moon and
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: they will use the moon's gravity to come back to Earth.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Sounds like a.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: Thomas show Dark Side of the Moon, Dark Side of
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: the Moon. Or if you watch Project Hail Mary, it's
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: almost akin to that movie to the point where NASA
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: actually used the phrase amaze, amaze, amaze from the movie.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: I'm assuming you need to watch. I know, I know.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: I just didn't have the time and I don't now
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I will have the time this weekend.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: So this might help NASA to plan maybe say a
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: moon mission in time to come. That could be really cool.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, if you think about it, right, when
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: you mentioned Apollo 13, you said it was 66 years ago,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: 60+ years ago. Can you imagine that that was possible
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: all that, all those years ago? I mean, yeah, and
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: then now you fast forward to 2026, right? They should
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: be traveling way longer than that just with the development
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: of technology and all that. If there is a movie.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: That I want you to watch as well. Watch the
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: movie Hidden Figures. Oh, I haven't watched that one. Yeah,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: and I'm gonna actually just quote the movie Sypnosis. Three
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: female African-American mathematicians play a pivotal role in astronaut John
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Glenn's launch into orbit. It's a true story, by the way?
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: This was released in 2017. OK, so a couple of
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: years back, lots of space-related films to watch then.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Coming up in less than 10 to, well, less than
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: 15 minutes, we want to open up the phone lines. Yeah.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: How about your school a shout out? And when we
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: say school, it doesn't have to be primary or secondary.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: If you're in ITE, poly, JC uni, why not call us,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: even private uni as well, or if we're doing a
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: skills future course. Yeah, I think like.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: as long as you're in some sort of a school
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: learning environment. Yeah, they're also learning environment like workplace also
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: considered learning environment. Who's gonna give us a shout out?
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: I mean come on, actually, sometimes listeners are quite sweet.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: They do like give us shoutouts on, I don't know,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: IGS or social media.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: on this Tuesday. We shall see, yeah, but we want
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: to make your day. So our priority is you. Don't
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: worry about us. It's our job to keep you energized
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: and awake. Time to open up phone lines 669-11987, just
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: before you get to school or wherever it is that
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: you're headed to. Um, I'm not quite sure whether for
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: university that term is happening right now, right? They're they're
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: in school. I would, I am equally as clueless as you. Yes, yes, they're,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: they're back in school already because, uh, just two weeks
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: ago I was helping.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: I was helping some NTU students out with their final
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: year project. So that I think was like one of their,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: not final year projects, sorry, their end of module or
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: something project.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: If I'm not getting it, how many projects do you have?
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: It's a lot of module projects. I mean, I think
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: it's not officially called that, but every time you take
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: a module, there's gonna be some sort of a test.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: But because it's, if it's a hands-on kind of module
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: like when I did, um, say TV production or radio
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: production or whatever, then it's a very
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Um, it's, you got to do like a live production
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: for the, the grading, if you know what I mean.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: It's like the university version of a weighted assessment. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: and it, it's in a group, so you got to
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: make sure your groupmates, you pick them wisely. Well, if
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: you're from primary or secondary school, maybe call us and
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: tell us all about national school games happening very soon.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: My favorite time in secondary school. I have no memories
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: of that.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: It's my favorite time because all the track and field athletes, right,
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: you get off from your, we get to leave early, yeah.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: So the moment the watch hits 12 p.m., uh, Miss Tan,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: I have to leave my competition. OK, go, go. All
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: the best. You feel satisfied when you say that, right?
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Good morning guys. My name is Kosuke. Hello. Good morning.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: What school are you from? Uh, I'm from the School
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: of Science and Technology. Uh, I'm on, I'm on the
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: way to school now. OK, so what's happening in school
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: for you currently? Like any exams or is it a
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: fun period? Any competitions happening for you as well? Uh,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: a lot of projects. What, what's your favorite subject, bro?
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: Art Arts. OK, but you're in school of Science and Technology,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: but your favorite subject is arts. There we go. I
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: feel you. OK, what song can we get you today
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: and who is it going out to?
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Uh, anything will be fine. And who's it going out to? Uh,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: my friend Joshua. Alright, Joshua, that's coming up for you
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: right here on 987. Have a great day, OK? Take care.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Bye bye. As we heard, $7000 still up for grabs.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: We were kind of thinking, would someone win yesterday because
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: the stakes are running quite high. No, no, I think
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: we are into big money territory now.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: And again, it's my personal selfish wish that it gets
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: to $10,000. I mean, I hope so too, but you
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: do realize that the big draw happens this weekend, right?
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: So that means if nobody wins the 70 by then,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: they might score something in a big grand draw, but
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: then we resume as per normal next week with $8000.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: That's the plan. Yeah, that's the plan.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: The money, the better it is for you empty your pockets.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: So money is not coming from us. Don't worry. The
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: negativity needs to stop. It's not negative. It's it's coming
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: from someone's pocket, not ours, not ours. OK, so if
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: you're hopping on a flight anytime soon, there's something new
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: to take note of. Um, I just wanted to ask
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: you this because even though I peg you as a
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: person that's always pretty prepared.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: When it comes to like traveling and all that, right?
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: I've never seen you use a power bank before or
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: like bring your own power bank when you're out, when
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: you're out. In Singapore, I don't bring a power bank
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: because you can charge it at the office and like anywhere, right?
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: So I bring a charger. But when I travel, you
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: do bring a power bank. So I don't bring a
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: power bank in Singapore as well because I can charge
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: it in my car or charge it in the office,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: but yes, when I travel, I'll keep at least one
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: with me.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: Um, from the 15th of April onwards, please take note,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: if you're traveling, you're only allowed two power banks when
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: you're leaving Singapore. If you have anything more than 2
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: power banks on you, and it shouldn't be in your
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: check-in luggage, obviously, that's not allowed. If you're carrying power banks,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: it should be on your carry-on, right? So you can't, yeah,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: make sure that you don't have more than 2 power banks.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: If you're carrying 3 or more power banks as a
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: solo traveler, you're working on the plane or what? What's
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: happening here? If you're expecting a very, very, very long
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: journey when you land.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: Perhaps that's why people might carry a lot. Yeah, I think.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: They trusted brands. So I don't really know anyone with
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: more than 2 power banks. However, in the past, when
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: I used to travel for like travel programs, right, I
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: know the producer will always have power banks on standby,
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: but perhaps because there's so many of us, each person
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: can carry one or you know, and then.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: We will be, will be fine, right? It'll be more
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: than enough. But just make sure that you take note,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: if you're departing Singapore from 15th of April onwards, you're
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: only allowed up to two power banks in your hand luggage.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Anything more than that, you might be asked to discard it,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: and there's also a restriction, um, that applies to the
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: battery packs. I think in terms of the wattage and
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: stuff like that, if you have anything more than a
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: certain wattage, you've got to get approval from the authorities,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: but please take note because you don't want.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: a situation where you forgot to check and then you
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: end up throwing away a perfectly good power bag, you know.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: So that rule applies to individuals, right? So for example,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: if I'm a family of 4 and I have a
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: total of 4 bags that I'm caring for each person,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: each person carry, each person that's fine in your, in
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: your carry-on luggage. But anyway, if you want to check
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: it out, please, you know, um, just log on to
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: your respective like airlines websites or you know, when you
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: check in, sometimes they got that.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: warning that uh that that warning about like what to bring,
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: what not to bring, they might have revised it. So
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: please check it before you travel. As you know, there
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: was that family that got stopped because the, the son
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: was carrying a toy gun, remember? Yeah, so it's situations
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: like that that you don't want to like disrupt your travels, right?
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: And don't forget you.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: Yes, on board as well. On board the flight. Actually,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: if you're on the flight, you can charge your phone, right?
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: You don't need to charge the charge your power bank,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: leave it in the bag and use it only after
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: you land. Exactly. So make sure you do that, but
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: happy travels if you're heading anywhere anytime soon. Good morning.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: When we come back, aside from $7000 in terms of
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: couples launching, Sonia.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: This is the hard launch of all hard launches I've seen. Finally, finally, joking,
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: thank you. You've got a girlfriend. No, not me, not me. But,
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: but honestly, this guy, he has officially spoiled the hard
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: launch market. Oh, OK. Well, it must be someone famous then.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: It is the next season, and I'm very sure it's
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: coming soon, maybe end of this year or early next year.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: Because it was hinted that Lady Gaga is going to
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: play a much bigger role in the next series, and
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: if you follow Lady Gaga's journey, you would know that, yes,
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: she's a very talented performer, musician, producer, songwriter, but she's
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: also a great actress. If you followed some of her movies. Yo,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: Lady Gaga is the 11 of the rare few people
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: that have actually won the Trinity is it, uh, was
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: it the Grammy, Grammy, Academy, and one more, Golden Globe. Oh, right, right, right.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: Did she win all three already?
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: Hopefully I'm correct. Or was she nominated? OK, she won.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: She won. OK, we will check. We'll clarify that later,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: but yeah, big, big things ahead. We go from one
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: high profile Hollywood celebrity to another. I mean, have you
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: seen Lewis Hamilton's latest video? Yes, yes. OK. Very stylishly shot. Yes, yes, yes.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Whoever was his videographer, please pass me his contact on
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: to hire. The cost of the videographer is our entire
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: artist fee.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: I was gonna say it was him in the old
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: school Ferrari doing some donuts and all that because he
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: was in Tokyo and you know, uh, Japan and Tokyo
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: specifically has a huge culture for like street street racing,
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: driving and stunts and all that. Like that's probably why
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift was filmed. I mean, just
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: look at initial as well, but I'm gonna say this,
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: this launch video has officially dominated the market.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: Spot the market as well because who appears at the
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: end of the video? I mean, who else, in 4K
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: HD herself, Kim Kardashian. And you know what the funny
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: thing is, ever since they announced, or rather they didn't
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: quite announce it, but other media outlets started releasing information
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: about this, right? Um, he's been quite open with his
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: affection actually, like in terms of just commenting, you know,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: like he will comment hard eyes on her picture, which
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: is such an obvious hot launch already, right?
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: I was gonna say, if you're looking forward to see
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: Hamilton on the grid anytime soon, just note that the
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Bahrain and Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, it has been postponed.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: The next time you'll see the Formula One action, Miami
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: in the month of May. Yes, and then.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: I believe Monaco is up next after that, right? It's
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: Miami and Monaco, right? Singapore, don't have. You know what, this,
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: I know you didn't watch Wednesday, like the series on Netflix, um,
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: but I'm so excited for the next season and I'm
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: very sure it's coming soon, maybe end of this year
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: or early next year.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: Because it was hinted that Lady Gaga is going to
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: play a much bigger role in the next series, and
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: if you follow Lady Gaga's journey, you would know that, yes,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: she's a very talented performer, musician, producer, songwriter, but she's
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: also a great actress. If you followed some of her movies. Yo,
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: Lady Gaga is the 11 of the rare few people
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: that have actually won the Trinity, is it, uh, was
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: it the Grammy, Grammy, Academy, and one more, Golden Globe. Oh, right, right, right.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Did she win all three already?
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: Hopefully I'm correct. Or was she nominated? OK, she won.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: She won. OK, we will check, we will clarify that later,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: but yeah, big, big things ahead. We go from one
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: high profile Hollywood celebrity to another. I mean, have you
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: seen Lewis Hamilton's latest video? Yes, yes. OK. Very stylishly shot. Yes, yes, yes.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Whoever was his videographer, please pass me his contact on
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: to hire. The cost of the videographer is our entire
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: artist fee.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: I was gonna say it was him in the old
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: school Ferrari doing some donuts and all that because he
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: was in Tokyo and you know, uh, Japan and Tokyo
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: specifically has a huge culture for like street street racing,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: driving and stunts and all that. Like that's probably why
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift was filmed. I mean, just
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: look at initial as well, but I'm gonna say this,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: this launch video has officially dominated the market.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: Spot the market as well because who appears at the
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: end of the video? I mean, who else, in 4K
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: HD herself, Kim Kardashian. And you know what the funny
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: thing is, ever since they announced, or rather they didn't
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: quite announce it, but other media outlets started releasing information
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: about this, right? Um, he's been quite open with his
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: affection actually, like in terms of just commenting, you know,
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: like he will comment hard eyes on her picture, which
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: is such an obvious hot launch already, right?
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: I was gonna say, if you're looking forward to see
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Hamilton on the grid anytime soon, just note that the
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: Bahrain and Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, it has been postponed.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: The next time you'll see the Formula One action, Miami
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: in the month of May. Yes, and then.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: I believe Monaco is up next after that, right? It's
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: Miami and Monaco, right? And for Singapore, don't forget we
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: have our very first sprint race for this season of F1.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: Danielle Harl and Dua Lipa to Hearts right here on 987.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: And yes, she is the newly appointed ambassador of Nespresso,
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: something that I drink almost every single day. In fact,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: I think um I should just be on a subscription
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: for the capsules at this point because I just go
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: through them. As a non-coffee drinker. Can you compare Nespresso
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: to like other types of coffee or capsule machines? Um, OK,
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: so to be fair, I've only ever tried one capsule
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: machine before. It's actually, if I'm not wrong, it's a
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: local brand, OK.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: And they created their own, their own capsule machine at
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: the same time. They've got a store over in New Bahru,
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: I think it's called Mornings or something. Maybe you can
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: search it out. I don't know if I'm getting it right. Um,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: I can't really speak for them because the technology is
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: a little bit different. I've always been an Nespresso user.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: And why I like Nespresso is because now with their
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: new virtual machines, right, which I know that this is
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: all lost on you right now, Jokim, they came up
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: with like a centrifugal technology where it spins the capsule. Oh,
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: I know what a centrifugal technology is. So thank you
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: to Project Hail Mary. So yeah, but this one in
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: coffee machine, different, still spinning. There you go. So the
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: coffee that dispenses has a thick layer of beautiful like foam,
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: you know, the coffee foam on the top. So it's, it's.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: It's just, it tastes like barista-made coffee and you can
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: do it at home. Can our hawker uncles and aunties
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: replicate this taste a little bit different. That one, they
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: don't use espresso beans. Yeah, they're using a different type
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: of like coffee grounds or coffee powder. On that note
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: about Bahru, there's PPP coffee. I love PPP. There's Dearborn granola. Yeah,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: is the one that they have their own coffee machine.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Why do you sound like you've been to every single
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: spot in New Bahru.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: Your new Bahru is by Junction to the point, to
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: the point where I can safely tell you which one
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: is worth going for food. OK, I'll tell you off air. OK,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you off air which one is worth it,
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: which one is not. This is a video series. Explore
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Bahru with Sonia. By the way, um, this is not
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: a paid piece of content or anything, but I apparently
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: they're opening up a lot of new shops over in
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: New Bahru. Like there are a lot of new tenants
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: popping up.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: Sushi Road, right? Yes, Sushiro is popping up as well.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: What an interesting location, but I can't wait to see
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: what kind of concept they're coming up with with Bahru,
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: you have to have a strong concept.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: 87.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: that
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: Hi, good morning. It's Geraldine here. Hello, Geraldine, what are

• 19:53
  Speaker 1: have you managed to eliminate all the wrong answers and
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: can you confidently say that you have a fresh guest? Yeah,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: I guess I.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: Eliminated about 80%. 80%. OK, that's that's pretty good odds.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: Any idea what you want to do with 70 if
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: you win? I'll probably travel, yeah, traveling is my, yeah,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: my hobby. Standard traveling is a hobby, you know, so
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: 7K can go a long way. Yeah, I would love that.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: I can name many places where 7 will be enough. Exactly.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: Listen very carefully.
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: Geraldine, for $7000 what is 987's secret sound? Is it
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: a mechanical stopwatch? Mechanical stopwatch is your final answer. Let's
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: find out.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: You are incorrect.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: Chance to play 987's Secret sound continues.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: That.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: Geraldine, not the answer we're looking for, and I vaguely
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: remember on some other show, somebody actually said mechanical stopwatch
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: as well. Yeah, we're so sorry, Geraldine. It's OK, but
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: we love your energy. Please keep trying and your name
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: is officially in the big grand draw, OK? OK, thank you.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: See you this weekend for the draw. Bye bye.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: One guess win big.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: OK, so about to open up the phone lines, like
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: we said, good news. Every single day this week, we
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: have a pair of tickets for you to catch Le
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: Be in concert at her sold-out show.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: So please don't miss out. It's happening 8 to 9 a.m.
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: every morning this week. Finally, a venue fitting for Love
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: here in Singapore, vocals, right? Because the last time she
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: was here was at Arena Expo, which was a great
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: venue as well. The first time, I think it was
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: Pasir Panjang Power Station. Yeah, it was a very, she's
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: always gone for a slightly more unconventional location. Yeah, yeah.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: So I was lobbying for either Star Theater or the
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Indoor Stadium, and she finally got the indoor stadium for
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: one night here in Singapore. Cannot wait.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: But for this whole week, we're gonna use Lowe's songs
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: as the inspiration for maybe say something that happened to
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: us in real life. Yeah, and honestly, if you think
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: about it right out there.
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: Are inspired by real life related situations. Yes, love, breakups, anger, sadness.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: I got one for you today from the A Matter
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: of Time album Track 11, a cautionary tale. Oh, OK,
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: so many things come to mind already. I mean, if
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: I look back at my dating like history, right.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: Maybe two occasions did my friends say, hm, not sure
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: about this guy. Yeah, um, two separate exes that I've
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: dated before. I'm gonna throw a spanner in the works here, OK.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: I'm very used to being the guy that people warn
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: others about. Yes, why? For my dating history over the
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: last 67 years.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: Look, OK, look, OK, OK, I'm listening. As a single Singaporean,
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: I feel like I'm allowed to go out with whoever
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: I want, yeah, uh, date around and see if anything
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: were to develop. If it doesn't happen or it doesn't
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: become official.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: No need to say that, yeah, I mean, it's two
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: people making a decision because we are adults, right? Yeah,
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: but the phrase that, oh, be careful, he gets around,
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: he's a player. What am I supposed to do? Stay
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: home and sleep, which I don't mind doing he does actually.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: Frankly, I, I honestly, if you want to test me
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: like where is Joakim at this timing on this day,
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: I can tell you. No, but I think the issue
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: is that because we are in an industry or a
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: position in the media that sometimes quite scrutinized in terms
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: of whatever we do, even something as minor as like,
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: you know, after I announced my engagement at the end of.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: 2024, right? And you know, it usually, yeah, you get
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: married after a year or so. We don't always post
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: pictures and content of each other. I mean, Germs is
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: not really like a social media person, so we don't
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: really post that much. No, and on behalf of everyone,
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: thank you. Thank you for not making it your personality.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: Thank you. Sorry, my personality is too big and chaotic
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: for another personality to come in.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: But the point is, at, at one point after we
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: got engaged, maybe a few months later, right, because I
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: posted up the engagement photo, then like, OK, done. And
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: then we just once in a while we update. Some
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: people actually started saying that we broke up, you know,
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: because I didn't post anything much after the engagement. They're like,
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: are they still together? And on Google search, right, it was,
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: did Sonia and Jeremy end their engagement? Literally people searched that,
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: by the way. So I was like, OK, maybe I
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: should just put one photo up once in a while.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: I just didn't think that people talk about this stuff,
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean? So it doesn't surprise me
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: that if someone sees you out there with like a
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: girl or dating girl and then another girl maybe in
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: a couple of months, they might jump to those conclusions. No,
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: but there were ruined by their friends said to me.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: That's the question, right? Are you easily affected by what
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: your friends say? Because you know me, I'm a bit
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: of a rebel, right? If my friends tell me don't do,
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: I will still do. You want to see for yourself. Yeah,
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: I will see for myself. Yeah. So based on's song
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: title A Cautionary Tale 669-11987, or you can WhatsApp us
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: at 90050987. Were you ever warned about someone?
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: And were your friends right or wrong? Yeah, I was
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: gonna say that. Did it turn out to be true
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: or on point? Give us a call 669-11987 or drop
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: us a WhatsApp message 90050987. Remember, a pair of sold-out
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: tickets to Leve's concerts could be yours. OK. Now, um, entire,
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: the whole of this week rather, we are giving you
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: conversations inspired by Leve songs because every single day you
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: stand a chance to win a pair of now sold.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: tickets to her concert. Today's one. The song title is
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: a cautionary tale from the A Matter of Time album.
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: Here in Singapore, we say warning. Oh, I told you already.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: That's what Singaporeans always say. I told you so, right? Yeah.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: One message coming in from Kim. I warned my ex-colleagues
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: so much about her love scam lovers that I was
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: getting worried that she was going to un-colleague me at
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: that time. They come in sequences nonstop and they are
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: all so.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: Very sweet. Be careful, everyone. I wonder what was the
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: resolution for that. Like her colleague, was able to snap
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: out of it. Yeah, I mean, that can be quite scary,
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: especially when conversations with scambots are getting so sophisticated now.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: So yeah. I wanna say good morning to Bernice on WhatsApp.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Bernice says, Hey, Sonia and Joki, I was warned about
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: this guy I was dating. They said all sorts of
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: unsavory things about him. He's now my husband.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: You see, this is, this is a good example, right?
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: Because like what you mentioned earlier, you said you're kind
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: of concerned because some people say certain things about you
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: just because you're single and dating around. There's nothing wrong
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: with dating around. You don't, you're gonna find a person,
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: a girl one day who doesn't care about the noise,
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: I promise you. Can she show up soon?
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: We're back to Leve's concert tickets right now. I'm very
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: excited for you to join her on her tour, and
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: these are sold out tickets. So every day this week,
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: our conversations are inspired by her songs. Today, it's cautionary tale.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: It's a spicy one today. Were you warned about the
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: current partner you have by your friends, and were they
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: right or wrong? Or were, were you the subject of
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, of speculation previously where people actually warn others about you.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: I could write a book about being warned about. Any
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: messages coming through. We got one coming in from Corinne saying, hey,
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: Sonia and Joakim, this one, unfortunately, my friends were right.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: I was dating someone for 2 years and my friends
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: kept saying something felt a little bit off. Turns out
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: he was cheating on me.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's never pleasant and I hope you've recovered from that. Yeah,
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: I know. We've also got Royston hanging on the line.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: Thank you so much for your patience. What happened? OK,
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: because I have actually been on both sides of the
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: coins before when I was in Bali, uh, I was
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: dating someone. When we started dating, my friends were telling me, hey, bro,
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: this one better be careful. And then so.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: So we dated and then we broke up. Faith got
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: us back together again and we broke up again, dated
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: and broke up all the way until I was 22,
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: I guess my friends were right. Wait, what did they
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: what did they get when they met to be careful. We,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: we actually knew each other before we started dating me
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: and my friends.
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: Uh, they actually knew her, how she was before she
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: was dating me, so I was like, OK, so I
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: was to give it a try. See, I, I like
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: his style because I'm exactly like that. I will still
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: go find out for myself. Hang on, here comes the
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: juicy part. Yes, yes, Royston, you said you're on the
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: other side of the coin as well, right? So why
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: are people warning their friends about you?
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: Honestly, I have no idea. I have always been, you know,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: when I was younger, I, I enjoyed partying and drinking, right,
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: but I do always make sure that I, I treat
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: people properly. However, you know, when, when you, when you
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: start treating people, uh, nicer, so they think that you
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: are flirty. I see, yeah, it's just Royston with his
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: natural charm, you know, he can't help it.
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: On the topic of cautionary tales, now, inspired by Lebei's
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: song titles and lyrics, we're giving away her tickets, but
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: at the same time, it also shows us that hey,
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: a lot of these songs, they are probably inspired by
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: real-life situations. Hm, come, let me share a personal story.
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: This was me giving my friend a cautionary tale. This
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: happened almost a decade plus ago already. Do I know
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: this friend?
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: Actually, you know, you know the story. I know the story. Yeah,
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: so I will redact the names. OK, go ahead. OK, um,
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: this friend was going out with this person who has
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: a bit of a very good looking profile, right, the resume,
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: the qualifications and all that, all top-notch, very good, and
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: in less than 3 or
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: 4 months, my friend was saying, oh this guy is
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: the love of my life and I went, Are you sure?
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: Like it's only been 3 or 4 months and you
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: only met him on the app recently. I mean, be,
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: be very careful, you know what I mean? I think
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: I know who this is. Turns out the man was
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: a chauvinist, egoistic fella. Uh, apparently my friend had a
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: very small dog, right? And
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: The dog to move out of the way. He won't
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: say move. He'll kick the dog out of the way. No,
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: that is a that is a giant red flag. What
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: the heck? Took her long enough to realize it. Finally
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: broke up. She called me saying, I'm sorry, Joe. You
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: are right. Yeah, but you see, the thing is, I,
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: I do acknowledge as well, while friends and family members
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: sometimes they mean well by saying like this person is
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: off or like I don't think you should.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: But it's very hard for the person in the relationship
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: to see that right now. And if I'm the person
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: telling someone or warning someone about the person they're dating,
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: I don't need the I told you so kind of thing,
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Mind you, I did not
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: say anything bad about the guy she was dating. I
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: just said, Are you sure? No, only 3 to 4
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: months of my life already.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: A bit too soon. Why don't you just do your
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: research proper first? Then she was like, No, you cannot
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: say something. You must be more supportive as a friend, OK?
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: You see, you see, you say do research first, right? Yes,
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: I don't do research about people ever I mean research
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: as in like be the person first, see the red
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: flags potentially. So that's what she was doing, right?
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: She was dating this person, so you can't expect her
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: to break up with him there and then, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: I think we've all been through that for sure. When
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: we come back, more of your stories as well. We
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: still got time. If you would like to call us 669-11987.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: Have you ever warned someone, maybe your close friends about
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: a person they're dating or could it be the other
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: way around? Let us know. Those concert tickets to Leve's
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: sold-out show could be yours. OK, so here's the deal.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: We want to give away concert tickets to the sold-out
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: show Leve here in Singapore.
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: And every single day this week, we're inspired by song
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: titles and the content of her songs. So today it's
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: about a cautionary tale. Have you ever been warned about
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: a person or have other people warned others about you?
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: Oh wow. For the latter, I know a thing or
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: two about that. OK, any other messages you want to
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: read out first? I want to say good morning to Frazier. Hey, Sojo,
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: my family didn't like my wife because of the way
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: I knew her. We met on Tinder.
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: So with a brother that's 12 years older than myself,
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: he doesn't believe in all these online dating thingies. He
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: and my sister-in-law actually felt like my then-girlfriend was a
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: gold digger. David went to the extent of letting my parents,
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: who have a very traditional mindset kind, know that she's
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: kind of like a gold digger. Long story short, we
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: got married after 7 years, and this is our 10th
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: year dating and married, dating 7 years.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: For 3 years together as a couple. My parents are
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: super OK with my wife now because after many years,
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: she started to know her by themselves. That's when they
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: realized she's not what my brother said. Sometimes, you know,
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: people jump to conclusions, right? Like, have you ever felt
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: defensive about someone you were dating before? So your friends,
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: but did your friends turn out to be right, or was,
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: was your gut feeling right?
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: I hate, I hate to say this. They were right. 90%
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: of the time, my friends and my mom, they were
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: right about the girl I was with. I think it's
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: because they can see things from like a third party perspective,
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: you know, when, when you're too deep in it, you
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: cannot see anything coming from somebody who can open a
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: gentle monster collection and call it rose-tinted glasses. OK, that's you. Yours,
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: yours isn't rose-tinted like yours is blackout shades.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: Can't see anything. I've learned my lesson. Wrong wrong. Why?
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: Eric is on the line right now. What about you?
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: Do you have an incident to share?
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: I actually work in a secondary school and then there
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: was this student who was referred to me because uh
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: of certain disciplinary issues.
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: And ah his form teachers actually warned me oh this
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: boy is really devilish and unrepentant, total, total devil in class,
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: and they are really they they have given up hope
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: on him. Um I I I I saw something different
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: in him, uh, there was something different about him and um.
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: Yes, he, he, he did continue being more naughty and
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: all that even after I started to interact with him
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: and engage him, but with that time and effort, I
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: realized actually some of these behaviors can be explained because of, um,
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: things such as his broken family and, um, all the
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: overexposure to negative peer influence outside.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: And with that time he actually started to open up
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: to me and share with me all these things and
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: I guess I guess that's where I think he started
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: to see me more as a mentor rather than as
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: a discipline master. And that was the turning point. He's
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: actually so much better now. I I'm really glad for
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: him and um I think this is actually um it's
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: a great example of how
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: People can be somewhat right and yet so wrong at
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: the same time.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: You are so right. Look, I think credit has to
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: be given to you as well for seeing the good
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: in someone when everyone else did not believe in that person,
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: you know, we all need that one person in life.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: Eric's a real-life angel here in Singapore. Well done, Eric.
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: Thank you. We all need an Eric in our lives. Yes,
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: we do.
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: Thank you. Thank you. I didn't think of it that way.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, now see, we flipped the perspective for you. Thanks, Eric.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: You have a great day, OK?
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: Sure, will do. You guys too.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: Thank you for your stories, your messages, your calls from today,
• 35:51

• 35:55
  Speaker 1: you've been the subject of people warning others about you,
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: doesn't mean it's only in relationships, could be just as
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: a judgment of character, or have you warned your friends
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: about someone they were dating before. Thank you so much
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: for all your calls and texts and in case you
• 36:08

  Speaker 1: Eric, congrats. We loved your story. It was something very
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: different and such a great takeaway from it too. And
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: as somebody who was a mischievous secondary school kid, yeah,
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: I could have used an Eric in my life. Yeah,
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: no wonder nothing has changed, right? You're still the same now. Eric, congratulations.
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: Enjoy and you're gonna hear this one live in concert.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: It's gonna sound the same because her vocals are so good. OK,
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: Sonia Chew, I know you're not a wrestling fan. No,
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: but if I were to ask you to name me
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: a few wrestlers you might know of, um, Seth Rogen.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: Sorry, what? You mean Seth Rollins. Seth Rollins, What's the actor?
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: I got the first name right. Anybody else? The Rock. Yes,
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: that's one. But you're talking like wrestling or like the
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: WWE WWE OK, one more like the one they say
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: they cannot see. The Undertaker. No, I mean, yeah, OK,
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: well done.
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: You can't see John Cena. John Cena, OK, yeah. I'll
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: give you one more name. Tell me if you know
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: this person, OK? The late Hulk Hogan. Yes, yes, of course.
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: He died last year. He passed away. I didn't, I
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: didn't realize that. Yeah, all of a sudden.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: Whether you like him or not as the person, Terry Bollea,
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: Hulk Hogan's name, he was really one of those stars
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: in the 80s that made wrestling what it is today.
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: He paved the way so people like The Rock and
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: even John Cena can run. So Netflix, they announced that
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: on April 22nd, they'll be dropping the Hulk Hogan documentary
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: featuring his final interview before he passed on. Is it
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: never seen before?
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: Footage like that. So I believe they might have been
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: making this documentary over the last 2 or 3 years,
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: and then for Hulk Hogan to pass away suddenly, I
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: don't think he's around to watch it, but his family can.
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: But yeah, so they go to people who actually had
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: legitimate beef with him for interviews, snippets and all that.
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: So one wrestler who really cannot stand Hulk Hogan, his
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: name is Brett Hart, I don't know this one, which,
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: which I love watching him perform as well, and he
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: had one line in the trailer, he's a liar.
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go. So he's still alive, lah. Who
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: as in Hulk Hogan? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: Hulk Hogan has passed on already passed on, but in
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: terms of the, the character Hulk Hogan and the person
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: Terry Bollea, always confused, very different people. OK, well, I'm,
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: I would watch it even if I don't follow wrestling.
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: But you know, brother, you better say your prayers and
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: eat your vitamins. What you gonna do when hawker mania
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: runs wild on you? Why you sound like Cookie Monster.
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: About to go on TikTok live in less than 10
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: minutes for a pretty, I would say funny guest joining
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: us in a while. This man is a man who
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: wears many hats. If you go to the theaters, not cinemas,
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: theaters regularly here in Singapore over the last decade or so,
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: there was one name that you would know it's definitely
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: a heavyweight in the theater scene in Singapore, Andrew.
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: Marco, let me read to you his resume when he
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: shows up and give him a special intro as well.
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: You go way back with him, like you've known him
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: for a while, right? Honestly, I met him through Benjamin King. Oh, yes, yes,
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: me too. Yeah, and we have our mutual friend Tim,
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: who knows him and Nathan Hartono as well. But so
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: what I'm curious about, you know, um, funny guys, funny
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: dudes like Andrew Markle, right? Like if they're different on
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: and off stage.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: Like, are they actually, you know, joking about and always
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: cracking jokes all the time, you know, maybe in a
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: social setting, Andrew Mark Andrew. It could be different, yeah,
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: but maybe on his phone, like myself, very quiet, yeah, yeah,
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: plug in earphones, yeah, disconnect from the world for a while, yeah, yeah,
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: doesn't hurt to meet people sometimes, you know, Joe. I do.
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: I do. I just rather stay at home in my bed.
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: I know.
