  Speaker 1: be me today and tomorrow, but here's a question for
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: footballing fans. I think the group stages have gone on
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: too long. Anybody else feeling football fatigue because I know
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: I'm tired from all these games already, but we're moving
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: on to the knockout rounds very soon. Singapore's number one

  Speaker 1: Sonia's on a Bali break. She's gonna play peddle, and
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: I'm just wishing her all the best. Stay safe, Sonia.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Don't roll your ankle or Bali belly or whatsoever like that,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: but not to worry.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Here on today's show, I'll be keeping you updated on
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: all the scorelines that we have for the final round
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: of the group stages. We've got some that wrapped up
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: earlier this morning. Currently in action, we have Scotland against Brazil,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Morocco against Haiti, and if I'm not wrong, Brazil won
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Scotland nil, all thanks to Vinicius Junior. When we come
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: back though, loads of updates coming your way involving the weather.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Some idiotic behavior here in Singapore and even concert news
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: happening across the causeway. All this and more right here.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: This is the last week of the June holidays, so
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: get used or rather enjoy the empty roads a little
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: while more before next Monday. It's business as usual here
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: in Singapore, where loads of families come back from their
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: respective holidays, and it's back to school.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: For some of the kids here in our country as well. So,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: on my Insta stories, I've been opening up stories of
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: my friends who are young parents. They've taken their kids
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: to the Disney cruise, taken their kids to Japan, to Korea.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: When we come back, there's still time to enjoy a
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: little bit of holiday magic. If not, you can do
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: it when school reopens and if you're looking for a
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: weekend plan here in Singapore. It involves this.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Yup. If you find this familiar, of course, it's the
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: intro to every single Disney movie ever. And given how
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: it's the 25th of June, we are just days away
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: before the June holidays are over. Back to school, the
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: roads will be business as usual here in Singapore, but
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: there's still time to go during the holidays or maybe
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: say the following weekend when school reopens. You actually have
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: 3 months to do this. It involves our friends from
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: this place.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Wow. What a chaosia on a Thursday morning. But yes,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: our friends over at the Disney Cruise Line, what they've
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: done if they've decked out Sentosa Island in the 7
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: different theme areas available on the Disney Adventure. So, we're
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: talking a 3-month island-wide program.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: It started yesterday. It's going on till September 20th. There'll
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: be trails, photo installations, themed areas across various locations. Again,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: over at Sentosa Island. So Sentosa's kind of split into two.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: You've got Resorts World Sentosa and Sentosa Island.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: And there's so many things to list out for you.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: I'm just gonna pick 3 to look out for. Firstly,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: you know the bridge over at, was it Palawan Beach,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: where you go over to the southernmost point, there's a
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: bridge to walk over, right? It's gonna be decked out
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: in Disney colors. I'm not gonna spoil too much for you.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Go there, get your TikTok game and your Instagram game up.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: There's also a 6-meter inflatable Captain Mickey and Minnie that
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: you can take pictures with and
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Three of my favorite, favorite areas on the Disney adventure.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Of course, it's part of the seven that'll be featured
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: over at Sentosa Island. Make sure you check out Toy
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Story Place, Marvel Landing, and San Frans Tokyo on my behalf.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: You can do so from now till September 20th. So
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: pick and choose your time wisely. Hopefully you go during
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: off-peak so you can get all your videos and your
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: pictures done with friends, family, and even your kids. And yes, earlier,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: if you just joined.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: us, I shared with you how the Singapore Institute of
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: International Affairs, they've issued a rare red alert when it
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: comes to our weather here in Singapore. And if you're
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: asking yourself, why, why, why, why, why? Let me tell
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: you why. Um, because of El Nino, for the second
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: time since 2023, a rare red alert has been issued.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Involving the transboundary haze that will affect us, Brunei, Indonesia,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: and Malaysia. Now, the one thing they didn't say is
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: where the trans-boundary haze is coming from, but they've praised
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: the other countries that I just mentioned on their capability
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: of being able to handle the forest fires and the
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: haze now. So we're looking at it happening sometime.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: In late July towards September, so you might wanna mask
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: up and be on standby. No need to panic, but yes,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: we've been warned that there's a red alert happening for
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: the year 2026. Hey, throat's gonna feel extra itchy when
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: it comes to late July all the way to September.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: If you are having that durian craving, if you wanna
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: get it satisfied for absolutely free, read about this online,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: apparently the
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: There's a store here in Singapore that's given away 1000
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: kg of free durians, I dare say, almost daily. They
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: started doing it since June 19th, and this store is
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: called Durian Ninja over at Block 827 Tampines Street 81. So,
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: take a bow to 25-year-old old owner, Mr. Key, congratulations.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure this is really good publicity for your
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: durian stall, and the reason why Mr. Key is doing this,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: he wants to get more young people interested in durian,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: and he was giving a comment saying that, yeah, he
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: noticed that during the free hours where he's giving out
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: durians for free.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Most of the people in the queue are the elderly,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: but he's happy to see some young people coming forward
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: to queue as well. Now, before you think, hey, I
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: can take as many durians as I want, no, there
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: are some rules in place. You are limited to 2
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: per person, and look, I'm no durian expert, but maybe
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: you might know this better. The durians that are offered
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: is actually the kampong variety.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: We're talking them coming from Bentong in Pahang and Mua
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: in Johor. And if I'm not wrong, the free giveaway
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: starts from 6:00 p.m. again, happening over at Durian Ninja
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: at Block 827 Tampines Street 81. There you go. If
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: you're looking for a place to get your durian cravings satisfied.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Why not go check them out and go give Mr.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Key a high five. Ham album, Lady Gaga, How Bad
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Do You Want Me? And people are still speculating that
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Taylor Swift actually secretly features in this song. No one's
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: confirmed anything. I don't think anyone has put that question
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: to Lady Gaga as of yet, but if she says yes.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Yes, I really hope one day we see a collab
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: between Gaga and Taylor Swift live on stage to perform
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: this song. But speaking of performing and all that, March
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: 6th and 7th next year at the Singapore Indoor Stadium,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: we are getting two nights of Stray Kids here in Singapore.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Cause when I
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: It's like
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: Of course, this song featuring Charlie Puth, Lose My Breath.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: They also gave you songs like La La La La.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: And how about S Class?
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: So they're coming to Singapore as part of their newly
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: announced Run It World tour to promote their new album,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: This and that. They will be here again, March 6th
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: and 7th at the Singapore Indoor Stadium. They're doing like
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: an Asia tour. They're going to places like Seoul, Tokyo, Nagoya,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Hong Kong, Taipei, and Bangkok. And I'm just looking for
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: when ticketing details will be announced, but not as of yet,
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: but mark these dates down and hopefully, you're able to
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: score a ticket for so to enjoy Stray Kids.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: Here in Singapore. Again, what a big few months it's
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: gonna be for K-pop here in our country. Again, Baby Monster,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Le Seraphim, BTS and now Stray Kids performing live in Singapore.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: I think it was around this time where Linkin Park
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: surprised the entire world that they were coming back, releasing
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: a new single, releasing a new album, and they announced
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: limited tour stops, and the only Asian stop two years
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: ago was South Korea.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: I remember telling Sonia's sons, I think I should go.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: I'm a huge Linkin Park fan. I don't know if
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: they're coming to Singapore. I wanna go. So I bought
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: my own ticket, paid for my own flight. Somebody over
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: at Warner Music Singapore got wind that I was traveling
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: to Korea to go watch Linkin Park, the new band,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: come back together.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: They made me interview them. So yes, I have an
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: exclusive video on 987's Instagram and hopefully YouTube. Just go
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: search 987 Lincoln Park. It should be available for you.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: Core memory that will live in my mind forever. That
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: said though, another core memory of mine, and if, if
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: it's your first time tuning in, look, a dream of
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: mine was to host NDP.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: And being able to do it continuously, I do not
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: take it for granted. Very happy to share that I'm
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: gonna be hosting this year's edition and it's my very
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: first time hosting an NDP at the new national stadium.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: I don't know why I'm clapping, but
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Just celebrating a small win in my life and this weekend,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: rehearsal starts. So Saturdays, there could be fireworks going off
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: at the Kallang area for sure. I can't give you
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: the exact timings as of yet because I don't know.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: But knowing me, what I would do is once I
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: Take down timings on when the fireworks will happen. You
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: can rest assured, I'll definitely share it with you here
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: on 987 and a video on Instagram. So, I'm not
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: too sure about road closures at the National Stadium area.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: You might want to follow Andy Peeps on Instagram and
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: on TikTok for more details on that. But if you
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: own a drone and you wanna do some drone footage
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: around the National Stadium area, do note that activities are restricted. Again,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: for full details, you might want to stay close.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: The NDPs on Instagram and on TikTok, and very soon,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: hopefully on 987's TikTok and Instagram as well, you can
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: watch out for a guide to this year's NDP video.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Before I go to the concert announcement happening over in Malaysia,
• 11:23

• 12:01
  Speaker 1: at least in primary 6, the year 2000, 2001, 2002,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: I was listening to people like Eminem, Korn.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Slipknot, Papa Roach, Marilyn Manson. Yes, I was the kind
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: of kid that would save recess money and I'll go
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: to the nearest CD-ROMer or HMV to buy a CD
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: and I have to hide at home and listen to
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: it because my mom and dad, they will say, hey,
• 12:26

  Speaker 1: And the one band that really I think most millennial
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: kids might know, Limp Biscuit, and they've announced a tour,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: not in Singapore, not in Indonesia. They're gonna be stopping

• 14:56
  Speaker 1: improve your lifestyle, this is definitely something for you. But
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: on the topic of body hacks.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: I'm at that phase of life now where I am
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: listening to podcasts about better sleep cycle.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it, it will hit you. Sooner or later, it
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: will hit you and you'll find yourself listening to these
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: things as well, asking yourself, hey, how can I improve
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: my sleep cycle? How can I sleep better, get better sleep?
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: Should I wear an Apple Watch or an Aura ring?
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: What should I use to track my sleep with? But,
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: given how it's the World Cup season, loads of people
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: could be losing sleep just to watch their favorite games,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: but I, I don't want to just draw it down
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: to football alone. Today's question.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep it very simple, very open for you
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: to dial in over at 669-11987 or WhatsApp us at 90050987.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: What would you lose sleep over?
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: No, really. It could be a football game, it could
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: be a night out with your friends, or maybe like
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: a medical emergency or you're being on standby for work.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Maybe if you're a regular in our national service line,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: this could be up your alley as well. What would
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: you lose sleep over? Share with us your story again,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: if we do like your answer, what's coming your way?
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: A very nice pair of passes to the GLOB Festival
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: happening in Singapore, July 10th and 19th, but we are
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: gonna put you there 17th, 18th, and 19th.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: So it's the World Cup season. We're in the thick
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: of it right now. The group stages are almost over.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: We're going to the mouth-watering clashes of the knockout rounds,
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: round of 32, round of 16, quarterfinals, semi-finals, 3rd place,
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: and then the finals happening July 20th, Singapore time. And
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: it's announced that President Donald Trump will be at the
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: finals and he'll be presenting the World Cup and the winner's'
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: medals to the winning team. Jokes online saying, now I
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: hope Iran wins.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: But anyway, here in Asia, we are, we are all
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: losing sleep, especially if you're a footballing fan. We're all
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: losing sleep at the World Cup, but I wanna put
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: football aside for a while. What else would you lose
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: sleep for or gladly lose sleep for as well? Because
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: it could be your work, it could be your family,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: it could be gaming. So I wanna give you a
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: heads up.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: Grand Theft Auto 6. The pre-orders open today, July June 25th,
• 17:23

• 17:49
  Speaker 1: Jolene says, hey, Joakim, I totally relate to this because
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: whenever I send a risky text to my partner, or
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: we are settling an argument and I get left unseen,
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: I cannot sleep. I'm the kind of person that needs
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: to settle our problems before I call it a night. Jolene.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: I relate to you on a whole new level when
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: it comes to this one. I'm the kind of person
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: that needs to settle everything before I lay my head
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: down to sleep. If not, anxiety. Really, next level. Wanna
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: say good morning to Jay on WhatsApp. Hey Joakim, younger days,
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: I'll sacrifice my sleep for partying and alcohol.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Now that I'm older, I'll sacrifice sleep for food.super at
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: the Mamak stall still hits. And one coming in as
• 18:34

• 18:56
  Speaker 1: here on the shock circuit, welcome to the show. Going
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: solo today and tomorrow as Sonia's on a short break,
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: playing paddle and enjoying the beaches over in Bali.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: And I shared that I'm at that age now or
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: phase in life where I'm listening to podcasts about getting
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: better sleep.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: Yes, all those body hacks and stuff. But of course,
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: given how it's World Cup season, losing sleep over the
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: mouth-watering clashes and very soon it'll be the knockout rounds.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: So I wanna put football aside for a while and
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: just ask you, what else will you lose sleep over?
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: And I shared how November 19th, 20th, it's a Thursday
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: and Friday, I'll be playing GTA.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: I took leave on November 20th to actually play Grand
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Theft Auto 6 all night. So, there you go. Wanna
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: go to WhatsApp at 90050987, saying good morning to Cynthia.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: Cynthia says, morning Joakim. What we did as a family
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: was stay awake for a flight. It was our first
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: family trip to Sydney when my son was 3 years old.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: He's 6.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: Now, we were booked on an 11:00 p.m. flight, but
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: it was pushed back to 1:00 a.m., then delayed again
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: on the day itself until around 2 to 3 a.m.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Despite all our efforts to get him to sleep, he
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: was far too excited. Instead, he spent the time running
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: around the transit area and enthusiastically shouting out the different
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: airlines and planes he
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: Spotted. It was definitely a memorable experience and a funny
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: family memory to look back on, but we were completely exhausted.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: If we had the choice again, I would definitely book
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: an earlier flight. Going to the phone lines over at 669-119-87TG.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: What about you, buddy?
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: I think as
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: a dad, I am willing to lose sleep for three things.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: So for family emergencies.
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: Once in a lifetime opportunities, like sometimes if there's a
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: good job offer, you know, and the last episode is
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: basically the last episode of a really good series, ah,
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: if you talk about shows, a bit embarrassing.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: So it's family, work, and maybe sometimes Netflix or whichever
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: channel you watch it on lah.
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: Yes, correct,
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: yes. Out of curiosity, how much sleep do you lose
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: each
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: night?
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: I think I will actually max out until maybe 34 a.m.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: then I, yeah, that probably, you know, depending on if
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: it's a weekend, then, yeah, can be more.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: Has it taken its toll on your body yet?
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: Uh, yeah, you just need to rest more the next day.
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: Alright, thank you. Thank you for sharing your answer, TG Bele.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: Happy Father's Day to you. Take care, man, brother.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: OK. Bye-bye. Bye-bye.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: On the topic of what have you lost sleep over.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: It could be the World Cup. It could be gaming,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: it could be work. It could be family. Let us know.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: Over at 900-50987 or you can call us at 669-11987.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: Wanna say good morning to Andy on WhatsApp. Morning Joe.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: To me, it's just me time just to recharge. As
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: a private hire driver, I'm with all kinds of passengers
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: from 8 to 6 p.m.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: Then as a father, I would spend time with my
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: kids till 10:00 p.m. and as a husband till 11
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: to 12 a.m. in the morning. Well, thank you very
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: much for balancing that and having family time as well, Andy.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: Going to another message coming in from Kat. Hey, Joe,
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: the only time was 22 years ago when my mom
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: passed on suddenly. 5 days of awake, I did not
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: sleep a wink.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: Really didn't know how, but now looking back at it,
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: I don't know how I did that because the critical
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: hours was between 4 to 5 a.m. I had strong
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: CPO to handle the timing because everyone else was sleeping
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: besides my brother and myself, so we had to stay awake.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: Then when morning comes, I didn't have the feel to
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: sleep anymore. Kat, thank you so much for sharing this.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: We're sending you all the love and hopefully you've moved
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: on and things.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: are better now for you emotionally as well. Go to
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: the phone lines over at 669-119-87. Dylan, what about you,
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: buddy? Uh,
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: OK, for me, you know, I would always definitely sacrifice
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: sleep for that one hour session of fishing, because those
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: three hours always turned out to be the best 6
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: hours of my life.
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: When you say fishing, do you mean in Singapore waters
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: or overseas or what?
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: It doesn't really matter as long as there's a pool
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: of water and there's fish in there, you know, I'll
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: definitely throw a hook in there. Yeah,
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: so I'm no fishing expert, but what's the best catch
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: and release you got for yourself so far, Dylan?
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: I think that will be my first uh wild grouper
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: that I caught in Singapore waters. It was quite a
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: big fight for me and uh it was, it was
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: such a nice surprise to see that that grouper when,
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: when the fish came
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: out of the water. Oh,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: that's nice, but Dylan, can I ask you for your opinion,
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: why do you think the hobby of fishing is slowly
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: coming back here in Singapore? We're seeing loads of young
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: ones do it now as well.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure, but, uh, you know, there's just this
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: thrill of not knowing what you get. Maybe it's a
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: bit like getting Pokemon,
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: right for the game, I guess,
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: exactly.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: Could be rubbish, could be a fish.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: First time, and when the movie ends, it transits into
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: Kendrick Lamar and sends us all the stars, goosebumps inducing,
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: and I'm glad that the Black Panther movie is forever
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: immortalized on Disney Plus. So if you have a subscription,
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: go watch it and maybe now is a good time
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: to go rewatch all the Avengers films, the Marvel Cinematic
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: Universe timeline before Avengers Doomsday.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: Coming out in the month of December. That's it though,
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: thank you so much for all your calls and texts
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: about what you will gladly lose sleep over. I think
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: we have plenty of very unique answers and some answers,
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: of course, you can relate to losing sleep over work,
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: losing sleep over family. But for today, I wanna give
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: it to Dylan who called in and said, fishing of
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: all things. Dylan, congratulations, buddy.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: You are gonna go to the GLOB Festival worth $200
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: and getting a pair of tickets, July 17th, 18th, and
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: 19th over at Palawan Green. You can enjoy the likes
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: of Jason Derulo, Alessia Cara. It's a wellness festival, so,
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: given how you're losing.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: Sleep over fishing, go to Glow Festival and reset your body. Hopefully,
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: it helps you. If you're a Taylor Swift fan or
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: maybe even a Travis Kelsey fan, not to be a capo,
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: but I think we have a date on when the
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: wedding could potentially happen, and this is according to all
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: the paparazzi snooping around.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: The rumor is it could happen July 3rd of this year,
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: and how they deduce it was this July 2nd, July 3rd,
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: and July 4th, at least up till midday.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: The city of New York, they have received plenty of
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: requests and permits to shut down an area quite near
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: Madison Square Garden. So people are speculating that Taylor Swift
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: and Travis Kelsey's wedding could happen over inside Madison Square
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: Garden itself, and another thing that is pointing to a
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: confirmation is, all of a sudden,
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: Players from the Kansas City Chiefs are booking hotels around
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: that period to stay in New York as well. There
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: are requests for tents, canopies, and of course, the roads
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: being shut down maybe for the huge entourage that will
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: show up for.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey. Whether it happen or not,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: I guess the only way we'll officially find out is
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: through Insta stories of some of Taylor Swift's friends or
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: maybe even Taylor Swift's official Instagram account. Some Singaporeans, we
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: don't deserve nice things.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: When it comes down to Hello Ride and any wheel.
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: When it was first launched in Singapore, I remember sharing
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: with Sonia my views live on air. Whether will it
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: be just like your old4 old bike or Mobike from
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: a long time ago, where people were just anyhow renting it,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: then dumping it all over Singapore. I remember there was
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: a stretch of road along Adam Road, where this particular
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: tree and this small piece of land became like the
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: unofficial cemetery or dumping ground for
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: All your old bikes and more bikes. I wanna take
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: you to the east here in Singapore. Lorong Ke Telok
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: Kurau to be exact. You might have seen this video
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: circulating on social media already of somebody actually riding a
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: Hello Ride bike in the canal itself. And before you go,
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: a not safe or oh, which young punk is this? No.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: Hello Ride themselves have come out to say that yes,
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: it's actually one of our
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: Staff members who was able to use the GPS tracking
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: system and realized there was a bike inside the canal
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: over at Lorong Ke Telo Corral. So he had to
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: ride it out, bring the bike out of the canal himself.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: It's a very steep uphill, by the way, so well
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: done to this staff member and a police report has
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: been lodged. So Hello Ride, they are trying to find
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: the culprit who did this and threw the bike inside
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: the canal. So again,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: Most of us are OK, but it's always these handful
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: of Singaporeans that that just don't deserve nice things. I'm
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: talking about this and even the sharing, the car sharing
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: stuff as well, where people just abuse them. So, I,
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: if you see anything, please make sure you report it
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: to the relevant people. And when it comes to things
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: like your Hello Ride, any wheel, or your car sharing networks,
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: please make sure you check everything.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: Thing before you ride or drive off. And of course,
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: if you're following the World Cup, if you need updates
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: from yours truly, it's South Africa 0, our Koreanopas nail,
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: Mexico 0, Czech Republic nailed the first half for both
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: games almost over. That said though, I'm gonna give you
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: a bit of a spoiler. I'm posting a video up,
• 28:34
