987 THE SHOCK CIRCUIT REPLAY🔁 250326 · 987 The Shock Circuit

• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Wake up.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: up next
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: Kicking off your day in the best way. It's Sonia
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: and Joakim on the shock circuit. Alright people, it's just me,
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: myself and I on this Wednesday as well as Thursday
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: with you here on the shock circuit. But we've got
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: loads to clear on the show. How about some $5000
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: and maybe even a court shopping experience? All this and
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: more on the show. Stay with us. Singapore's number one
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: hit music station.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Gotta wonder what's her take on Lizzo right now, given
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: how it's not been a good few years for her,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: plenty of lawsuits, a backstage crew, and even some dancers
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: complaining about unethical behavior from Lizzo herself, which is quite shocking.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Because she's always been this wholesome person, encouraging body positivity,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: but for her to make comments like what she did,
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: I don't know whether has it been proven yet or
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: has she been found guilty, but we'll stay close to her.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Maybe this is Lizzo's way of saying, hey guys, I'm
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: sorry I messed up. Here's new music from me. Hopefully
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: you enjoy it and we can all forgive and move on,
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: but of course not forget.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: And learn some important lessons. But anyway, it is yours truly,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: Joakim Gomez, keeping you company here. Today and tomorrow going solo,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: but not forgetting, we got $5000 up for grabs on
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: 987 Secret Sound. Again, I'm laying down the ground rules
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: for you. When you call in, you are not allowed
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: to say clicking of a pen. Don't say.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: hole puncher, and as of yesterday, you cannot say stapler anymore.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: These 3 guesses overdone, so I want to encourage fresh
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: guesses here on our show and maybe you never know,
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: it could be the one that wins you $5000 aside
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: from qualifying for our big grand draw. And for Sonia,
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: she's currently in Phuket, Thailand, and she looks amazing. If
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: you haven't seen the pictures yet, I wonder who she's meeting.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Because she's over there with Long Sham, so she did
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: say that she'll be meeting some regional influencers and maybe
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: a worldwide celebrity, so there's only one way to find out,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: stay very close to her, or maybe when she comes
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: back to the show on Friday, we can grill her
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: on all that went down in Phuket, Thailand. That said though,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: when we come back here on the show, do you
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: smell that?
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Honestly guys, the haze is back lah. The haze definitely
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: back here in Singapore. I'm pretty sure you can smell it,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: especially over at the eastern region here in our country.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: But there's so much confusing information going around on Reddit,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: on your forums and online. Which website should we refer
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: and get our data from? Full details in just a
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: bit here.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: This girl can sing. It is Ray Nightingale Lane, proving
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: to you that she's not a one-hit wonder with Where's
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: My Husband, and by the way, her full album, This
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Music May Contain Hope, that's the title. It drops this Friday,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: twenty-seventh of March, and it's the kind of album where
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: if you're a vinyl record collector, you need to own it.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Record, I'm pretty sure it would sound amazing on a
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: good set of speakers as well. Anyway, it is Joakim
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: Gomez keeping you company right here on the shock circuit,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: and yep, if you go out of your house right
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: now and take in a deep breath, more or less,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: you can smell it. The haze is definitely back here
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: in Singapore. So here's giving you some details. Apparently, over
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: at the Kota thingy.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Area of Pengarang and Sadili Kachil. There are forest fires
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: and the plumes, the smoke, it's drifting towards Singapore. Now,
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: I think on Reddit and maybe even your Telegram group chats,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: people could be using AQICN, which stands for Air Quality
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Index China. It's a non-profit organization.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: That measures air quality readings, not just in China, but
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: around the world as well. But apparently, from a CNA
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: article in 2019, they said that they do not follow
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: the same measurements that what Singapore uses to measure the
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: PSI and the p.m. 2.5 index and all that. So,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: as of now, I'm looking at hayes.gov.sg. As of 6 a.m.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: as a whole, our air quality is at 44, which
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: is in the good range, but
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Giving you more details. The north side is 44, the
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: west side 42, and then the south side where Sentosa
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: and Keppel area is, 56 in the moderate range. Central, Bishan,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: of course, where I live, 59. And for the East siders,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: I believe you are tanking this one for us for
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: a while. Thank you for your service. Currently at 64,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: but I have a few friends who live in the
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: East Coast and Changi area. They were just DMing me
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: yesterday saying that, yeah, it's.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Really bad. They could smell it. So yeah, take care
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: of your health. Mask up if you want to protect
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: your nostrils and mouth models particles, and if it gets
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: within maybe say an unhealthy range, you might want to
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: put on hold that jog or that run outdoors. Hopefully,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: it doesn't get to that level because I remember back
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: in 2013, 0, it was terrible here in Singapore. Opening
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: up the phone lines in just a bit here on
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: the shock circuit. 669-119-87.
• 5:17

• 5:20
  Speaker 1: in January saying that do you think we can collect
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: all 400+ primary, secondary schools here in Singapore and then

  Speaker 1: you'll experience at our Media Corp cloud nine zones. That
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: said though, now's the time. Phone lines are open over
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: at 669-119-87.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: No matter what school you're in, call us right now,

  Speaker 1: hoping to collect all 400 or 500+ schools that we
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: have here in Singapore. Give your teachers a shout out,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: your friends, your classmates. If you're having a bad day
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: in school, let me know as well. Hopefully, the power
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: of music can heal you here on the shock circuit. 987, hello,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: what's your name? Jacob. Hello, Jacob. Which school are you in?
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Poi Ching Poi Ching Primary School, I'm guessing.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Yes. And how has it been for you back to
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: school after the March holidays? Are you tired or are
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: you having fun?
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: What's happening in school today? Anything exciting?
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: Maybe I think we are going to do some math.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Go to do some math. OK. Which level are you
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: in then, Jacob?
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: Primary. And is there anything great about Poi Ching Primary
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: School that I should know of?
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: The field is very big. There is a level 1
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: and level 2 for the sports playing and.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: The canteen is quite big I guess. Oh, judging from
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: the sports facilities you guys have, that's my kind of
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: primary school right now. Alright, Jacob, what song can I
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: get you here on 987.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Cold Coldplay, OK. And what song from Coldplay? Any song?
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Alright, I'll play you any song from Coldplay. I'll
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: pick one for you. Who is it going out to,
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: your classmates, your teachers, anyone?
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: Miss Lee, and what does Miss Lee teach you?
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Jacob, I believe you deserve this one. It's called Viva
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: La Vida, one of Coldplay's biggest songs right here on
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: 9th Vida. Jacob from Poi Ching Primary, if you're still
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: tuned in, this song was around before you were born.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: It was a hit.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Back then. It is still a massive hit now. Hopefully
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: you enjoy it and you were smiling on your way
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: to school on this Wednesday morning. When we come back
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: here on the shock circuit, I believe we are all
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: familiar with the intro of this certain Disney movie.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: and
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Find out why there is currently a $27 million lawsuit happening,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: all because of that opening line. Wake up.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: Good next.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Kicking off your day in the best way, it's Sonya
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: and Joakim on the shock circuit.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: If you just joined us, I'm pretty sure you're very
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: familiar with this Disney opening line.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: and
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: Find out why there's a $27 million lawsuit in just
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: a bit. Singapore's number one hit music station.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: You are gonna watch The Lion King, and the 1st
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: 5 seconds of the film, you'll hear and see the
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: sun rising as this line plays.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: and we
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: Not just the movie, but even the play as well. So,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: according to Disney, this is the language of Zulu. It's
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: an African language, and the official Disney translation of that
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: line is, all hail the King. We all bow in
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: the presence of the King. OK? It sounds grand. It
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: sounds very mighty. Yes, it does. But a Zimbabwean comedian
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: by the name
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: name of Learn More Jonasi. He's facing a $27 million
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: lawsuit from the song's composer, Lebo M. And here's why.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: So he went on a podcast and he was talking
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: about how he feels as if movies like Black Panther
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: and Lion King, they borrow from African culture, but they
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: introduced some American elements to it. So he was saying
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: in The Lion King,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: Somehow the lions all have American accents and the only
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: person with an African accent is the baboon Rafiki. And
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: then he says, we've all understood the line that we
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: hear in the opening of The Lion King wrongly, and
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: here's what the comedian says it means. Have a listen. Look,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: there's a lion. Oh my God.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: You're, you're joking. That is not what that means. That
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: is not what that means. So instead of the grand
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: meaning of all hail the king, we are all, we
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: all bow in the presence of the King. According to
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Learn More Jonasi, a comedian from Zimbabwe, he says, no,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: it means, look, there's a lion. Oh my God.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: And the reason why the song's composer Lebo M is
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: suing him for $27 million Lebo M feels as if
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: that this comedian, he went on this podcast and he
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: said it authoritatively. Meaning, yeah, this is the real meaning
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: and not in a funny way.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: So, there you go. Whether will this end up in court,
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: I wonder, and I wonder whether will the comedian or
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: the song's composer win the case because there's an ongoing
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: debate on social media right now. But just for the
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: fun of it, I'm gonna try to pronounce every word correctly. Alright,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: here we go. Now.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Singona Bagadi baba. I better not sing anymore before I
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: get sued for $27 million. Currently it's 7:23. We are
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: about maybe say 20 minutes away to playing at 987
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Secret Sound. Yes, $5000 still up for grabs.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: And not forgetting the secret buzzer as well. It could
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: go off at any show. If you missed it on
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Monday and Tuesday, wondering what's the secret buzzer prize of
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: the week, not to worry, we'll give you a full
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: update in just a bit here on the show. But
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: when we come back though, April 5th.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: There are loads of things happening here in Singapore and
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: I can name you three. What are these three? Find
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: out in just a bit here on the shock circuit.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: Stay with us. In case you're wondering where is our
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: darling Sonia? She's over in Phuket, Thailand for an event
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: with Long Shomp. Hopefully I'm saying that correctly. This is
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: why she gets invited, not me, right? Um, so, find
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: out more details from her and I'm pretty sure on Friday.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: When she's back on the show, we can grill her
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: on who was there and who she met and all that.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: But here in Singapore, April 5th, there's gonna be plenty
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: happening in our country. Firstly, it's Easter, so to all
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: Christians and Catholics, just hang in there. Very soon it'll
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: be Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter vigil, then
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: Easter Sunday.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: Also happening on Easter Sunday, it's High Rock Singapore. Yes,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: I have a couple of friends who are coming back
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: from Thailand after doing High Rocks Bangkok, and I'll give
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: you this, my trainer and I, we actually did High
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: Rock Singapore in May last year. It was my very
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: first High Rocks. I was a little bit out of shape,
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: but I was very happy to still clock a 1 hour,
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: 17 minutes and 27 seconds. My trainer did a mixed
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: doubles in Bangkok with his partner, with his girlfriend.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: They got a 11725. They were 2 seconds faster than
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: me and my trainer. So, I'm feeling a little bit
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: envious now. I wanna do it again to improve my
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: timing and also congrats to you if you did High
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: Rocks Bangkok. And also happening on that very same Sunday,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: it's 2 times you. So whether you're doing the 5 km,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: 10 km, or 21 km, which I'm doing the half marathon,
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: by the way, so all the best to you.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's almost as if the whole of Singapore will
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: be working out on April 5th, but for two times you,
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: here's the interesting thing. We are about 11 days to
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: race day. We, we still don't have a route posted yet. Let's,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: let's avoid the repeat of last year where they posted
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: the route a week before the race and the route
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: was 20.8 km. It was shorter or something like that,
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: or rather 20 km and people online were slamming them terribly.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: So I really hope they release the Root ASAP. But
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: if you're wondering about Race pack collection, they kind of
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: dropped the news a few hours ago. It's happening 2nd
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: of April, 3rd of April, and 4th of April over
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: at Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Center. Again, for this
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: race pack, it's for 2 times you. And if you're there,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: if you're gonna run, I'll see you at the start
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: and hopefully the finish line. Here we go. 987 Secret.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: That
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: OK, I know Boss Janice is tuned in and she's
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: always saying, Joakim, stop giving the listeners a chance to win.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: We want to play for as long as we can
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: and snowball the money, but hey, it's $5000 a bit
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: of a rule breaker here on 987, I guess. But
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you three rules, OK, and it's to
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: your benefit. The first rule is when you call us
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: at 669-11987, you cannot say clicking of a pen.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: If you're gonna say that, put down the phone now.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Try again next time. The second answer I don't want
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: you to say is, hole puncher. Yeah, it's been said
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: one too many times. And the third answer I don't
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: want you to say as well, stapler. So, clicking of
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: a pen, hole puncher and stapler. If these were your answers,
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: put down the phone.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: Let others try or think of something else right now. So,
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna bring down our secret sound music and I'll
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: play you the sound. Listen very carefully.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: I'll play it for you one more time.

• 17:18
  Speaker 1: my friend, have you been tuned in to almost every
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: show here on 987? Do you know what not to say?
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: Uh yes. So, so you promised me that your guest
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: will be a fresh guest, yeah?
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: Yes. OK, I have boss Janice on standby on my phone.
• 17:34

• 17:40
  Speaker 1: For $5000 what is 987's secret sound?
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: Uh, my guess is a typewriter.

  Speaker 1: You are incorrect. Your chance to play 987's secret sounds.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: sound.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: Ah, Darryl, I am so sorry, but I can tell
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: you this typewriter, it is not a fresh guess. I'm
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: guessing it's been said about 4 to 5 times already. So,
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: aside from clicking of a pen, a hole puncher, a stapler,
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: I think starting tomorrow here on the short circuit, I'm
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: gonna ban the guest typewriter as well. If you're gonna
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: call in and say typewriter, cancel it, think of something new,
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: but hey, $5000 still up for grabs.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: One guess win big.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: What's that? Just joined us here. It's 8:00 a.m. on
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: a Wednesday morning, and nope, nobody has won $5000 yet
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: from us here on 987 Secret Sound. So the next
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: time we get to play it, it's with Anne Nicole,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: and maybe, just maybe by the.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: The end of this week. If no one gets the
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: answer right, I hear something about a snowball happening very soon.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: When we come back here on the shock circuit, I'm
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: gonna open the phone lines again, over at 669-119-87 and
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: I need your opinion. I need your expertise and maybe
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: even your experience. You can stay anonymous if you want
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: to as well.

  Speaker 1: earn you a very nice $100 dining voucher, all thanks
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: to our friends over at Novotel Singapore. This one involves
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: what I saw at a restaurant over the weekend and
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: I kind of wish Sonia were here, so she can
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: give me her input on this, but not to worry,
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: I have you for company here on the show. Stay
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: with us. Wake up.

  Speaker 1: Good next.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: Kicking off your day in the best way. It's Sonnya
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: and Joakim on the shock circuit. So I saw something
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: in a restaurant over the weekend and I wanted to
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: bring it here on 987 to discuss with you. This
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: one involves the need for your boyfriend to be Instagram savvy. Yes,
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it here on the shock circuit. Singapore's
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: number one hit music station.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: And to all the men who are tuned in, yes,
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: I say this to you, my fellow bro, I think
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: we should use our Skills Future vouchers to go attend
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: photography skills. I kid you not. And here's why. I
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: was at a restaurant on the weekend, over the weekend,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: just having my own meal and all that, and next
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: to me was this couple. They were they were very well-dressed,
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: you know, I think the guy was in the suit,
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: the girls in a very nice dress, and OK, this
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: is where I say,
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: If you're an Instagram influencer or a social media personality, I, I'm,
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: I'm talking maybe let let let's see, at the top
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: of my head, I can think of maybe say your
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: Novita Lams maybe, or maybe even your wafflenesses, you know,
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: all the popular people on social media.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: If you are dating someone, then yes, that person you
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: are dating has to understand how important social media is
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: for you because it is your career and you have
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: to look good. So maybe sometimes when you're at a
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: fancy restaurant or what and you wanna post an Insta
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: story or if it's a sponsored meal, I get it,
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: you know, I I've seen it happen in front of
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: me and I get it.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: But this couple next to me, I, I'm not gonna
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: call them nobodies or whatsoever, no, I'm not gonna be
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: using that mean term. It's more they're they're everyday people.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: They they're having a simple dinner. Their food arrived, it
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: was on the table. The guy clearly looked very hungry.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: He wanted to dig in.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: But then his girlfriend very audibly said, Hey, wait, wait, wait, wait,
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: can you take a picture for me first, OK? And
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: they spend a good 15 to 20 minutes taking pictures.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: The guy taking pictures of the girl, and every time
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: the guy passes the girl the phone, the girl scowls saying, Hey,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: you never get my angle correct. I'm like, poor guy, lah,
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: let him eat.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: And, and honestly, uh, over the last few years, I
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: have been on dates where for example, we go to
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: somewhere nice like the Marina Bay skyline at night, and
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: the girl passes me her phone saying, hey, Joakim, can
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: you please take a picture for me? I'm like, sure, yeah,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: I'll take it. And there was one girl who was
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: very direct. She knows who she is, she's tuned in,
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: I'm guessing. She goes, hey, Joakim, your picture skills suck lah.
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: I'm like, hello. Since when did photography become a criteria
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: in the dating world? I mean, can you play Mobile
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: Legends with me and help me climb to mythic? No, right?
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: Then shut up.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: Where is Sonia when I need her? I'm pretty sure
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: she'll butt in and and and contest my statement. So, 669-119-87.

• 24:04
  Speaker 1: really my question today is, since when did photography skills
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: become a dating requirement?
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: Because, uh, I, I, I really pity all the Instagram
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: boyfriends and husbands here in Singapore. They, they just want
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: to eat the food but can forced to take photos
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: of you at the dining table, but sometimes, yes, you know, I,
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: I know you want to remember that moment and the
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: angles might not be good. One or two times, fair enough,
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: but 20 minutes, like what I saw at the dinner
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: table over the weekend.
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: It's a bit too much. 669-11987. Miss Tang, what is

• 24:49
  Speaker 1: Wednesday morning. I also have Farhana on the line. Farhanna,
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: is it a must for your partner to have Instagram
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: boyfriend slash husband skills?
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: OK, so my thing is, it's not really important, but
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: it's nice to have them, um, capturing the moment.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Because now that we have a baby and I have
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: nothing to look back. So it's so yeah, it's nice
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: to have, but yeah, this is about it. 87 rate
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: your husband's on a scale of 1 to 10.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: I even have a video of me and my baby
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: that's like, um, mostly captured the floor, OK. The floor,
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: the video that's capturing the floor, which I do not
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: understand what it was he taking. OK lah, this one
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: really your husband's fault lah, skill issue this one. At
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: least point the camera to you, right? But, but has
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: he improved so far? Has he gotten better?
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: Um, yeah, maybe after multiple naggings, yes, definitely. OK. I
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: guess you found yourself an Instagram now. Thank you so
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: much for your call Farhana. All the best for the baby.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: Take care, OK. Bye-bye. Thanks. Bye bye. Keep the calls
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: coming in at 669-11987.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: 90050987. In case you just joined us, um, when it
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: comes to dating or even marriage, is it an important
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: thing for your husband or boyfriend to have Instagram boyfriend
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: and husband skills? Let us know. On the topic of
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: social media, it's really turned us into something else the
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: last decade or so, where is ladies, again, the question is,
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: For your dates or even your partners, is them being
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: an Instagram boyfriend very important for you in terms of
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: them having good photography skills to make you look good
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: in all your selfies or your pictures at fancy restaurants
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: or iconic landmarks here in Singapore or around the world.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: And if you're wondering what inspired this topic, I was
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: at a restaurant over the weekend, and for 20 minutes.
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: This couple next to me, they they aren't influencers or whatsoever,
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: they're just everyday people, which I get. You want to
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: remember this moment, you want to look good, but 20
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: minutes of the guy's suffering, and I and I really
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: used the word suffering to take pictures of his partner,
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: and every time he handed the phone back to the girlfriend,
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: the girlfriend said, hey, my angle's not nice. Take again, again.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: Poor fellow wanted to eat lah. I think by the
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: time he ate, the food was cold. Going to WhatsApp
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: right now, 90050987. What are your thoughts on this? I
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: want to say good morning to Lee Yi, who says,
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: morning Joakim. For me, it is the opposite. My boyfriend
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: will complain about my photography skills. He has given up
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: on me after I tried several times. Hey, poor thing lah,
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: Lee Yi, are you?
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: But yes, nice to know the reverse happens sometimes. Wanna
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: also say good morning to Seth. Seth goes, morning, bro.
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: This topic is triggering for me personally, and I totally
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: understand how you feel. You know, being in the media
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: industry and photography is part of our skill set. Even
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: when our bosses approve and appreciate our work and skills,
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: our significant other will
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: always condemn our skills when taking photos of them, and
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: that in my book is a red flag, and I've
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: learned to be direct with my responses, making them feel
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: even more annoyed. So my PSA is, ladies, stop condemning
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: your partner's photography skills and learn to appreciate their efforts too.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: That will make them feel loved. Ao alright love Seth,
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: let's see whether your answer change things.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: Here in Singapore. Go to the phone lines over at 669-119-87. Tila,
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: what are your thoughts? Not necessarily, but for me it's
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: like I can do all the stuff on Instagram and
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: post it, photo-taking, I think it's quite important. Yeah, I
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: can't be taking selfies all the time, right? It doesn't
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: turn out well. OK. So yeah. So do you have
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: a partner right now?
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Ah yes, I'm married. And how you're married. OK, so
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: how is your husband's phone camera skills for your Instagram then?
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so I've been uh married for about 17 years.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: So he's got caught on and he made a good
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: decision by getting a full phone now. So he takes
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: excellent photos at the moment, better than mine. So it's
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: not about just going for the, you know, the photography
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: skills and.
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: that getting a good camera in your mobile phone, I
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: think is the most best investment you can do for
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: your girlfriend or wife. really catch up on them. You
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: sound so assured and happy that he's done this. Can
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: I ask the phone model, please? I'm taking notes.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: The latest model, yes. The iPhone 17, is it? I
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: know the Samsung phone. Ah, Samsung, OK, let's see. I'm
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: an Apple boy. Let's see what happens. Thank you so
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: much for your call. Take care, OK. Bye-bye. Thank you. Bye.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: Keep the calls and texts coming in over at 669-11987
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: or 90050987.
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: If we do like your answer, a $100 dining experience
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: to a very nice brunch, proudly brought to you by
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: Novotel Singapore. It is coming your way. On the topic
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: of whether is it a must, ladies again here in Singapore,
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: whether is it a must for your date, your boyfriend,
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: your husband to have photography skills when it comes to
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: your social media game.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: So, going to WhatsApp and saying good morning to Tay. Tay,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: you read, morning Joakim. It seems like good photography skills
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: is a must for boyfriends and husbands nowadays. I actually
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: went to Taiwan and we had a long queue for
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: a photo at Ye Liu, the Queen Head. I'm not
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: too familiar. Hopefully I'm saying it correctly. And my husband
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: ended up taking a video instead of a photo.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: So, good photo skills contribute to a happy memory in
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: the relationship. This one is also knowing how to use
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: the phone properly, lah, I guess. OK. Keep your calls
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: and texts coming in over at 669-011-987 or 90050987. On
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: the topic of Instagram, boyfriends slash husbands, is it a
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: must to the ladies here in Singapore because I guess
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: dating in this day
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: And age, it's also important for the men to have
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: photography skills, lah, to make sure everything looks good on
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: Instagram and all that. If, again, I say this, if
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: you're an influencer, I, I totally understand it. It's your job.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: If you want to be one as well, yeah, OK, fine,
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: build your following. But if you're an everyday person and
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: social media isn't important to you,
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: Aiyah, just take one picture and be OK with it.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure you still look good nonetheless. This is
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: inspired by what I saw over the weekend. This couple
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: next to me took 20 minutes, yeah, of photographed photography
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: time when the food was already on the table, and
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: every time the boyfriend kept giving the girlfriend the phone,
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: the girlfriend kept saying things like, eh, my angle not nice, eh,
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: my hair here not nice, this and that.
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: Fella wanted to eat. So, taking your opinions. Is it
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: important for a man to have photography skills? 669-119-87. For now,
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: I'm going to WhatsApp and I want to say good
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: morning to Jerry. Finally, another bro, aside from Seth who's
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: texting in. Hey, Joakim. Interestingly enough, the roles are reversed
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: between myself and my wife. She doesn't really like to
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: post on Instagram. When we have our dates in restaurants
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: or cafes, she's always the ravenous one.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: As a romantic at heart, I like to keep footage
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: of memorable dates and holiday trips so we can look
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: back and relive those moments in time. Only recently after
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: our daughter was born that my wife started to be
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: more interested in capturing precious moments, but these are still random,
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: so maybe I'm the demanding husband. I think it's more
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: important to be real than to make sure we look
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: good in the pictures. So candid and unposed pictures are
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: my favorite. These days, we also
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: a range of photoshoots during our trips. I'm still waiting
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: for my wife to do up the photo walls at
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: our place. To this, I think putting up moments on
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: our own private space is more valuable than posting on
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: Instagram for showing off. Thank you very much for your take, Jerry.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: I really appreciate this. Also, I wanna say good morning
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: to Rachel, Rachel on WhatsApp. Hey, Joakim, I'm someone who
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: battles with body dysmorphia, so I tend to shy away.
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: From the camera. I wouldn't say it's a must have
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: a partner that can take photos, but it's nice to
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: be able to have nice photos of yourself, especially on
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: rare occasions. I feel pretty and think I look good.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: I'm normally the camerawoman, so I'll direct on the angles
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: and such, but having someone who can direct me, tell
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: me how to pose and hype me up is nice
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: as well. Rachel, consider this your all-time hype here on 987.
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: We're hyping you, Rachel. You look.
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: You're doing fine, sweetie, and Rachel, look, I, I've been
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: in this industry for 20 years now, since 2006.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: Photoshoots, still cameras, they still scare me.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: I'd rather do videos than photos. Trust me, I, I
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: feel as if I look terrible in pictures. Anyway, when
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: we come back, we've got 2 more texts to read
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: to you, then let's pick a winner. About to close
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: off the discussion. Loads of texts just came in. I
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: wish you came in earlier so I can read it out.
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: Loud here on 987 involving the topic of being an
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: Instagram boyfriend or a husband. I, I, I feel as
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: if in your hinge, Tinder, Coffee Meets Bagel profile, especially
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: for a lady, just put la, the man must be
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: able to take good photos.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: And for us men, for our Skills Future vouchers, we're
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: gonna attend some photography course or use it to get,
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: use our CDC vouchers maybe even to get a better phone,
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: just to make sure the quality of the photo is
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: very good. So I wanna go to WhatsApp and say
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: hello to Aaron. Aaron, you say, morning, Joe. My wife
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: is a professional photographer. How yo, Aaron, you got.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: This is the final boss of Instagram boyfriend slash husband.
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: My wife is a professional photographer, so I can relate
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: to all the IG boyfriends slash husbands out there. Every
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: time I'm asked to take a photo of her, I
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: have to take it a few times, again and again
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: until I get it right. But over the years, I
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: think
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: I think I've been getting better because I don't have
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: to retake the photo that many times nowadays. OK, Aaron?
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: You're surviving. Well done to you. One more coming in
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: from Royden and to my bros, listen up. This could
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: be the solution we've needed all the while, OK? Morning, Joakim.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: My wife always complained on the angles since the day
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: we started dating. I gave up and now I will
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: switch the camera to selfie mode and be the phone stand,
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: so she can adjust on the go. Pro tip for
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: all the guys out there. Royden, I think you just
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: saved us, man.
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: Thank you so much, but, but, uh, Roydon, I wanna
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: ask you a question, very important, OK? Has the Uno
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: reverse happened where you're at the phone stand, you are
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: holding it on selfie mode, your partner's the one adjusting everything,
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: and then when the photo is taken, she still blames
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: you because you're holding the phone, wrong angle and all that,
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: it's still your fault. That's my worry. Wake up.
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: Good next
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: Kicking off your day in the best way. It's Sonia
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: and Joakim on the shock circuit. Alright, you don't need
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: to be a footballing fan to know this particular player,
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: but where were you this morning when you heard
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: this?
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: Hello everyone. Unfortunately, the day has come.
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: Full details on who said that in just a bit
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: here on the shock circuit you stay with us. Singapore's
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: number one hit music station.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: And Liverpool fans, you're gonna enjoy this one, even though
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: it's bittersweet. Now, when it comes to football, yes, I
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: am a die-hard Manchester United fan, but also I'm a
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: footballing fan. I, I, I love the sport. If someone
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: from Arsenal or Man City or Liverpool plays well, I'll
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: definitely give that footballer credit, even though some footballers, they
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: really leave a bad taste in your mouth. Like for example,
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: if you're a Chelsea fan, if I say John Terry.
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: You would call him God, but others might say dirty player.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: If you're a Liverpool fan, if I say Steven Gerrard
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: or maybe even Luis Suarez, you might go, Oh yeah,
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: great players for us, but other people who support other
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: teams might go, Luis Suarez is a biter and Steven
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: Gerrard's tackles are terrible. But when I say this one name,
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: I think the entire footballing universe can go, what a
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: man and what a player, it is Mohammed Salah, and
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: where were you this morning when you saw this video
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: and here's the opening 10 seconds.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: Unfortunately, the day has come. This is the first part
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: of my farewell. I will be leaving Liverpool at the
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: end of this season.
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: So Mohammad Salah has confirmed that he'll be leaving Liverpool,
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: leaving Liverpool at the end of this season after 9 years,
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: and currently, currently according to the stats, he has 435
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: appearances for Liverpool, 250.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: 55 goals, 118 assists, and a career at Liverpool that
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: has seen him win the Premier League twice, the Champions League,
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: FA Cup, EFL Cup, Club World Cup, Super Cup, countless
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: player of the Year and Player of the Month as
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: well to Mohammad Salah. We say congratulations and thank you
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: for giving the football world your gift and your talents.
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: Really amazing.
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So I think uh for Liverpool fans, enjoy chanting
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: this the next few weeks.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: And by the way, the most salad chant is actually
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: taken off from a song in the 1990s. It's one
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: called Sit Down by James, and here's how it sounds like.
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: the
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: I was 2 when this song was released and I
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: actually loved it and I still have that nice record
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: of James featuring this song called Sit Down. So there
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: you go, Liverpool fans. Enjoy your moment and enjoy Mo
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: Salah for the next few weeks before he calls time
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: on his Liverpool career. Who's gonna give me all the
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: FBL points now? I wonder. Maybe Bruno Ferna. There we go.

  Speaker 1: pay tribute to one Miley Cyrus. This was her voice
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: and her 20 years ago. Hey, I'm Miley Cyrus from Hannah, Montana,
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: and you're watching Disney Channel. And 20 years on, she
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: still sounds the same. I'm Miley Cyrus from the Hannah
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: Montana 20th anniversary.
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: And you're watching Disney Channel. All my millennial friends on
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: Instagram and on TikTok and even the older Gen Z's
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: as well, they are sharing stories of themselves reacting to
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: Hannah Montana's 20th anniversary special, now available on Disney Plus.
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: Some are crying, some are celebrating, and how old were
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: you or where were you when this song was released?
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: I was 18 in 2026, so yes, I really was
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: growing up at the same time as people like Hilary
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: Duff and even Hannah Montana or rather Miley Cyrus. So yeah,
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: go enjoy the 20th anniversary special. I believe there are
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: plenty of watch parties and this
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: We could introduce Hannah Montana to a whole new audience,
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: maybe even the younger Gen Zs and even the Gen
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: Al first. So enjoy it again available for you on
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: Disney Plus. Ah, we're getting older people, even yours truly
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: as well, 38 this year. It's been 20 years in
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: the industry.
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: So, I'm gonna break a rule here on 987. I
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: think maybe Boss Janice might not be too happy about
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: this one. I'm gonna close the show with a Miley
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: Cyrus song. This one only impacted the world. If I'm
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: not wrong, maybe 2009. It's one called The Climb to
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: close your Wednesday. Handing you over to Anne Nicole. Take care.
