  Speaker 1: up.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Shock circuit with Sonya and Joakim.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: 7. Joakim's here and um he's eagerly awaiting the story.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: I'm very sure. I mean, or whether he knows the
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: story already actually. I was sharing yesterday that I received
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: the most hilarious text from you on Sunday night. It
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: wasn't at all hilarious. OK, I use the words hilariously painful. Yes, OK,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: so I said it's Sonia's story to tell, but I
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: cannot wait. It involves a random Sunday afternoon and a
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: paddle game. Yeah, so I, I'm just gonna very quickly
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: say it and then I'll.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: I repeat it again later on, later in the show.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Let's do it. But um I fell again. I twisted
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: my ankle again for the 3rd time in a year,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: if I'm not wrong. OK, it's the same. It's the
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: same foot. So twice, it involved being in a paddle game.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: The 2nd time that it happened, which was just before this,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: I tripped because I missed a step outside my Pilates class.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: Do you remember? And then I fell, that one wasn't
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: so bad because I felt, yeah, OK, my
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: I had like an abrasion on my left knee, but
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: my ankle was just, I think it was mild. It
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: was a mild twist. So it was OK in like
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: a few days. But my mistake was that I continued
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: to do like other things and you know, like Pilates
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: and sports and like whatever without wearing an ankle guard
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: because I thought like, oh, I felt fine. It felt
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: fine I aggravated it, yeah. And then on Sunday, which, yeah,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Sunday evening, I played a game and um twisted it again.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: So I finally went to like a doctor because my
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: mom was like, why don't you just make use of
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: your insurance plan, right? She said, why don't you just
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: go and use your personal accident plan? I was like, yeah, OK,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: good idea. Um, so he said, not necessarily just yet
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: until two weeks later till I go see him again.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: But he did some, you know, tests and he said,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: did you know that you have loose joints?
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: This whole time, like this entire time, I was probably
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: born with it, like loose joints. So we always knew
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: that I was double-jointed like because I'm very flexible, right?
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: But when he, when he like tested my ankle joints
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: and all that, he was like, yeah, it's, it's very loose,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: likely you're born with it, born with it like that. So,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: which means I should be, I'm extra flexible, but I
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: should be extra careful when I'm doing anything.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Even when I'm like brisk walking or running, he was
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: like you should probably wear a guard at all times.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: At this point, don't brisk walking and running. Yeah, no,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: be safe. I am being safe. I even wear the
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: right shoes and everything, but it's just because my ankle
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: is weak. That's why, yeah. So, so even I can't,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: I can't do running or walking either. That's what he's saying, yeah. So, um,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: I can't, I'm out of like any sort of running action,
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: not that I run anyway.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: OK. But yeah, um, I'll find other ways to, you know.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: What about swimming then for you? Maybe swimming, not for
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: now though, because it still involves, it still involves your
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: like leg movements and your ankle movements the picture you
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: sent me of your ankle was damn swollen, right?
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Fattest I've ever seen ankle. It was a cankle. It
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: was really a canker. The swelling has come down, as
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: you can tell today. So I'm just, you know, not
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: to show you my foot in the morning, but I'm
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: elevating my right foot. It's alright. It's like a trotter,
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: It seems like 2026 has been a year of pranks,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: especially pranks. Yes, scandals, but I'm sure we already know
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: what has been going on in social media space right now.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Every month, you know, there's something, right. Um, big shout
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: out to our unofficial friend Yolo on social media. Um,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: he always does these compilations on like what's been going on.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: In, in Singapore, especially, and he's officially filled up the
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: calendar all the way to August. Each month has an
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: iconic character from Singapore. YOLO's year-end for this year it's
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: gonna slap, dude, it's, it's gonna be like a three-part series,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I think. If you don't know what we're talking about,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: just go search Y E O L O. OK. Yeah. Anyway,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: coming up in just a bit.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Um, another prank yet again regarding a vending machine. Joakim.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Did you talk about this yesterday? I'm not sure. It
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: came out last night if I'm not wrong. I think
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: it broke last night. It, yeah, yesterday evening, but I
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: know what you're talking about because, hey, can we leave
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: our vending machines alone. We need them. Hello 2026 brought
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: to you by the pranksters that cannot leave our vending machines.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Alone, apparently. This is like the 2nd time. Wait, did
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: the juice thing this year as well? I feel like
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: it was this year or was it the end of
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: last year? Oh, I have to check now. Anyway, he
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: got dealt with this year, I guess his court case
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: was this year. So anyway, I'm taking you to my
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: old hood, Downtown East. Hey hey, I used to live
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: in Pasir Ris like half my life, right? And
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Downtown East was an area that I would always walk
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: by or go to sometimes with my friends. Downtown East Marquee,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: and they've actually revamped Downtown East a couple of times.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: It's actually quite nice. I don't know when was the
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: last time you've been to Downtown East. Actually, I was
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: there in the month of June for the media preview
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: for the NDP. They hosted.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: So I was walking around the area saying wow, this
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: is Sonia's old hood. But it's not the Downtown that
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: I remember when I was a kid. Yeah, but that
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: place also used to be the area where they housed
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: the Singapore Idol contestants 20 years ago. So I recognize
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: the few areas heading towards Wild Wild West or the chalets,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: yeah we were housed there. Yeah, wow.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: So mixed, mixed emotions, I'm sure like when you see it, yeah, exactly, exactly.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: So over in Downtown East, unfortunately, I feel quite bad
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: for these business owners. This vending machine got tampered with, OK.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: So this boy was caught on CCTV because every vending
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: machine I think now has like a camera installed somewhere,
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: just in case of theft or any like mischief.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Or anything at all. They at least have the footage, right? Yeah,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: to get something or whatever they're up to. This boy
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: allegedly put an out of order sign on a vending
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: machine in Downtown East, and this is not just like,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: it's not one of those big chain type of vending
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: machines that you see everywhere, OK. It's not like your,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: I don't know what Sunshine bread machines or those big companies.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: It's unfortunately a small local business and this vending machine
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: is a big source of their income, OK. So what
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: this boy, I guess, did not realize is that he
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: thought he was being funny lah, by putting the out
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: of order sign, right?
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: But he actually affected, could have possibly affected two full days'
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: worth of sales for this small business owner. Can I ask,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: does it say how the boy? He honestly, he looks,
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: I'm just judging from the because nothing has been released
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: so far about his identity or anything. I would say
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: based off the, the CCTV footage, he looks like maybe
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: 11 or 12. I feel 11 or 12. Yeah. So
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: no information.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: I don't want to go on a rant here. All
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna say is I was like that. No, honestly, yes, I,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: I was that primary school or secondary school boy, right,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: egged on by friends to do some nonsense and all that,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: you know, the bus signs last time in the very
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: old buses, they had the metal bus, the metal plate
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: at the back, yeah, so yeah, we got egg to,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: you know, take it or flip it around and all that.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: No, no, honestly, so yes, it's, it's the foolishness of youth.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I get it, and your friend saying, Hey, go la,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: you scared. Is it scared? Is it, so you want
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: to show that you're cool and you do that, and
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: you don't think about the consequences until you get caught.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: But also back then when you were taking the bus
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: and all that, they didn't have CCTV on, on the bus. No,
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: the uncle can see he can see. There was once
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: I got caught. How does he see? Is the mirrors
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: or something? OK, OK. So I got caught. The school
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: got called as well.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: It was quite embarrassing. Learned my lesson from then on. Yes,
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: you did other things, right? No more, no more. That
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: was the last one. I promise no more. I stopped
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: after that. Yes, it works. I want to say good morning. OK,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: we usually don't do this via text, but we received
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: quite a nice one today from the initials MG MG,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: I think that's the name, could be like a Meredith Goh.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: Just random or a Mary Kuo, OK, no random names, right?
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: I don't think so. Hey Sonia and Joakim, I love
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: this segment because I've always wanted to call, but I'm
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: very shy. Ah yeah, we understand, not to worry, but
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: I want to give my school a shout out, Saint Margaret's.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: Hello Saint Marks. Hey, I don't think we've had a
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: caller from Saint Mark's, did we? We had MGS, but
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure about Saint Mark's. We've gone down.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Saint Mark's, yeah, I wanna, I wanna give a shout
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: out to my class and my teachers for always believing
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: in us. It's a very important year for us. It's PSLE. Oh,
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: that means the oral exams just happened. Yeah, I'm very
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: stressed out, but thankfully we have good company in school
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: and on radio as well. Can you please play me
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: anything from Blackpink? OK, I'm on it right now.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Type something from Blackpink. Hopefully you will enjoy it. Let's
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: see what you see, let me see, let me see,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: let me see. Pick something upbeat for all of us.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: There's so, there's, should I go like, um, a little
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: more throwback or should I do something more recent? OK.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: What do you think?back. Can we play? OK, I got it.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: I got it. Alright, this is, this is a bit
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: of a.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: for us. Who's ever ready to be honest this early
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: in the morning? Your body isn't ready to wake up.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Your liver might not be ready to consume all the drinks. OK,
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: tell us clucky and boat. What's going on with the
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: new liquor laws? OK, I don't know if you felt it,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: but apparently last year there was a pilot to allow
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: some places to sell liquor.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Through maybe say 4 a.m. in the morning extended hours,
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: so the powers that be have decided, OK, the crime
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: rate over there still remains stable, everything looks good, we're
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: gonna allow 92 bars and clubs to sell alcohol until
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: 4 a.m. on Thursdays and Fridays.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: In which area specifically or across the island? Boy. So
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: I believe your Thursdays and Fridays could be ladies' night
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: on Wednesdays. So they start early then you once you
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: pass midnight, it counts as Thursdays. I wonder whether the
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: whole concept of ladies' night thing because Thursdays have become
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: more of a party night compared to Wednesdays, you know, so.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: I don't know whether they label it ladies' nights anymore.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Please correct me if I'm wrong. So the extended hours
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: actually kick in today. Oh nice. So Tuesday, 18th of August,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: so you gotta wait maybe one more day before you
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: enjoy alcohol responsibly, of course, till 4 a.m. in the morning.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: You know, I have to say this had to be done.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Have you been around Boaty and Clark Quay recently? Clark Quay, yes.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: And what do you think?
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: It's quite quiet now, right, compared to last time. I'm
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: gonna make a small prediction here. I'm very sure if
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: I were to step into Future Capital, I will see
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: the same faces that I saw 10 years ago.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: At these spots, you're not wrong. I mean, yes and no,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: because I mean, I'm sure with the revamp, maybe there
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: are new people. I don't know, but in the Clark
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Quy area, it really needs a rejuvenation in terms of people,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: the people, the people need to go back to Clark Quay,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean? So I think they are
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: asking for more suggestions on how they can revamp Clark
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: and Boat Key and hey, the pilot also saw 37
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: applications for new nightlife businesses approved.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: It could be your KTVs or bars or pubs or
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: even a new club. Yeah, so, um, we'll we'll see
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: where this goes, but I think when it comes down
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: to like the millennial and the Gen Z generation and
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: maybe even Gen alphas who are going to start being
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: legal very soon, the patterns of partying and drinking always change.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, Sonia and I come from a time where
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: we can name a lot of sports like, MOS, but we're,
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: you're not talking about the current rebel.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Older one over. Now I believe people might say. Yeah,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: so I find myself going to Bay and Milli like
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: more often now. So the smaller format clubs are actually
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: doing really, really well. Milly's another bar, bar, yeah. I
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: don't know whether it's a Cherry or Drip still a thing.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know if Cherry is still around actually. The
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: one that used to be at Orchard, before you go
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: to Dhoby Ghaut is the club still there, Drip, or
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: did they shift somewhere else? I'm not sure.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not a frequent person. So for me, I'm
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: usually now at another bar, Base or Millie, like either
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: one of these three. And I introduced Joe to another
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: bar actually. Oh, I will gladly go there. There we
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: go about what we can and cannot bring into Singapore,
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: especially when it comes down to luxury items that you
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: did not declare. Yeah, I mean, the word is in
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: play here, declare. So I've actually almost got into trouble before.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: I think I told you this. I'm not sure if
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: I said it on air, but years ago.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: Um, I actually had, um, a trip, right? And this
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: trip involved me bringing a few luxury bags that are
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: on loan to go and shoot overseas, OK? So they
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: tagged on to the, to my trip and said like, oh,
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: could you do this, you know, part of this campaign.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: I was like, sure, OK. So I think I brought
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: like 3 luxury bags in total.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: I think as long as you as you have documentation,
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: I know, I know. So it's a loan, what happened
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: was when I came back to Singapore, right, I got
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: pulled over to scan my bag as I usually always do.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. And
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: um anyway, put my bag through it and obviously, you know,
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: they said they saw something inside. Can we open your bag?
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Guess what?
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: When I tried to open my, my luggage, it wouldn't open.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Because whatever happened in the Europe airport, right, I think
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: they must have thrown my luggage quite roughly, um, and
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: my lock broke. So, so it looked extra suss. So
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: I said, bro, like I really want to open this
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: bag for you, but let me tell you what's inside, OK,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: I explained to you. I explained the whole story, and
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: I said, I can even send photos to you after that.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: It says, not for sale. This is a sample. It
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: says that on the bag.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: So yeah, he said, OK, OK, fine. Yeah, yeah, they did,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: they did. I said I go to my Instagram, it's there.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: But I think the reason why they do this as
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: well is because, you know, aside from carrying cash where
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: you must declare as well. I mean, all your luxury
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: bags and maybe even your expensive wine or bottle of spirits,
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: whatever you like to drink, right? It could also be
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: seen as a sort of currency. Yeah, yeah, and I
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: don't blame them. I mean they were very sharp about it,
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: but I think they were also, you know, they, they
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: were reasonable in the sense that I explained my case, right,
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: and I said I can send you the proof if
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: you want. But anyway.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: For this particular woman, unfortunately, she attempted to bring in
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: jewelry purchased overseas into Singapore. Looking at the pictures, I
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: think I see some gold, some gems. Um, she didn't
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: declare them and the jewelry was valued at about $10,512. OK.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: And the GST that was evaded amounted to close to $1000. So,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: she arrived in Singapore, she didn't declare anything, but during checks,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: ICA officers discovered 23 pieces of jewelry belonging to her,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: which is quite a lot.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: Um, and 21 out of 23 were gold solid jewelry.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: So this, you know, amounts to quite a bit. I,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: I the ICA, of course I suspect you of something. So, unfortunately,
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: she got fined $11,400 which is actually worth a bit
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: more than the jewelry. Ouch, that's almost one bracelet. Honestly,
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: if she just paid the $40.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: $6 GST, she would have been, she would have been safe.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: But instead, you know, now she's being fined $11,000 so that,
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: that's very, very unfortunate. Um, but our friends who are
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: at Singapore customs are now reminding all of us, hey,
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: please just declare and pay the GST or the duties.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: It's so simple now, customs at SG, it's a website,
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: web application. You can just do it online right now.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: It's not so complicated compared to like our parents' time,
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: So let this be a reminder before the September holidays
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: and even your November and Decembers as well. Exactly. And
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: especially if you go to, I don't know, like Europe
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: or US, there's plenty of shopping to be done, right?
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: For sure. The collections are very different. So yeah, just
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: watch out for that and be alert. Just want to
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: get this out there because I think um Jeremy, my
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: husband is still at a paddle game and he won't
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: hear this. OK, so I better say it now. I mean,
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: for the fact that his friends tune in.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: You can rest assured they will text him like, hey,
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: never mind, never mind, your wife said this about you
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: on air again. So let me just quickly tell you
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: what happened this morning, OK? OK. He woke up and
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: chose violence, you know. So I hang on, violence for
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: the world or violence for you? For my mental health.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: Wait, let me tell you first what happened. I'm on
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: the fence. Hey, you are my friend or you're his friend?
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: Can you tell the story first? OK, but you're my friend, right?
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: You're my friend, right? I'm your friend. You're my friend,
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: so gonna be on my side, OK? Would you lie
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: to you? OK, hold on. Hear the story first la. OK.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: So I, I got up and he got up shortly after.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: I was quite surprised he got up extra early today.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: So it turns out he had a game at 7 a.m. OK.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: So he, he goes, he needs to have this whole
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: thing where he does his whole breakfast thing and like
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: I don't know what else he does, pack his stuff
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: and all that and go like any other normal person. OK. OK, anyway, he,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: you're already defending him. I haven't even told you the
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: story yet. Why are you defending him? Keep going on. Yes,
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: I'm listening. Um, he wanted to take out the, you know, this,
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: you know, this French press, um, coffee.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: What would you call this, uh, coffee, French press thing
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: that I have here?
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: What would you like a kettle almost. Dispenser kettle. Yeah.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: So it's, it's, it's glass, it's made of glass, right?
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: So he has one at home as well. It's a
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: bigger French press. And um we both share it, OK.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: So he was like getting his coffee ready and I
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: walked into the kitchen and he goes, um, there's a
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: crack in the French press. And I was like, oh,
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: is it?
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: I was like, what happened? Then he said, I don't know,
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: it must be the person who used it last.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: OK, what's the problem here? What is the problem here?
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: You see, as a man, Jeremy exonerated himself. He didn't
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: blame you. He's blaming me. No, he didn't blame you
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: when he said, Oh, must be the person that used it.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: He's implying that it's me. No, no, no. He didn't
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: blame you directly. He said the person who used it last,
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: it could be him. Yeah, but it's the way that
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: you said it.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, must be the person who used it la. Yeah,
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: it could be. Hey, hey, OK, so anyway, I got
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: triggered because I was like, are you implying that I,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: because I did use it. I did use it. But
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: I was very, I didn't drop it or anything. I
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: didn't crack it. I didn't like wash it really hard, nothing.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: There were no incidents when I used it.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: OK. So with that one phrase, I got triggered already
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: in the morning.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: And I was like, are you implying that I'm the
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: one that broke it? Because it wasn't me, OK? Can
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: you prove it?
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: No, I can't prove it, obviously. I mean, it, it
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: must be a small crack that it could have happened
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: a while ago and none of us noticed it. So
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: this little thing that you have in the studio, yeah,
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: it's a French press. OK, I've seen you use it
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: and I've seen you, like, you know, not throw it around,
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: but it, you know, walk around a bit carelessly. It's fine.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: It takes quite a bit of effort to crack. I'm
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: just staring at it now. See, I'm pouring myself some coffee.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it works. Yes, OK, but I don't know what
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: Jeremy is like at home, but having seen you and
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: the way you treat some of your things, I would
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: not be surprised if there are cracks somewhere around the area.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: So you're on his side. I'm just being honest, sons. Yeah,
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: but what if it's him? Maybe he cracked it. OK,
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: then there needs to be CCTV footage, one small crack.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: But how would you even catch that? Like, honestly, I
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: don't know anyway.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: It was just a choice of words. Maybe he's attentive
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: to detail than you are. Think about it. I'm attentive
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: to detail. Really? I am. I would notice if there's
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: a crack.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: Maybe he cracked it this morning when he was washing it.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Then blame you I don't think so. He doesn't come
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: across that kind of petty. OK lah, I take his
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: side again. OK. Alright. I know where your loyalties lie.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: I know whose friend you are. OK. I'm beingpublic with
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: Give me something. I'm turning his mic off right now
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: on 987. Don't go anywhere.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: Kop. Your next Makan is sorted with Bagusse by Kopitia
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: with 11 outlets islandwide. My apologies. What happened there? My
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: reflexes weren't fast enough. Must be must be the person
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: manning the panels. I went to take a sip of
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: water and the song ended in like 5 seconds. So
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: what time is it now? Tell us. We're supposed to,
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: we're supposed to talk about what we're opening up phone
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: lines for next. OK, fine. So be on standby.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: Go ahead. live radio. 669-11987 or 90050987. I want to
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: bring this up for discussion, Sonia. It's our founding prime
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: minister during his tenure as senior minister, which is from,
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: let me get the dates right, November 1990 to August 2004.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: So apparently he was using
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: This Mont Blanc Meisterstuck fountain pen, yes, classic, OK, it
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: is sold at an auction for almost 10 times the
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: previous auction price that it was sold for. Did they
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: say who bought it or it's anonymous? I'm pretty sure
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: there are details there, OK, but can I list you
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: the price that it sold for the previous auction? OK.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: Previous auction $52,000.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: In the most recent auction, this Mont Blanc Meisterstruck fountain pen,
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: it sold for $461,500. Wow, must be a private collector
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: or something. Yeah, so apparently this pen has the engraving
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: SM Lee Kuan Yew on it and I was doing
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: some research. Market value of this pen now is about
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: $1000 plus plus. So for it to fetch $400.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: And 61,000++ dollars. this is a piece of history. I
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: know you can't put a price to that. I understand.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: When we come back here on the circuit, have in mind,
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: would you want something from someone like a figure or
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: something or a sports figure even? OK, I have something
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: in mind. I have something in mind. OK, OK, I'll
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: tell you later.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: And you tell me yours also, OK? Let's do it. OK,
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: so we're going to open up phone lines, 669-11987, all
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: because this particular item from the late Mr. Lee Kuan
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: Yew sold off for an incredible amount of money. It's
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: the Mont Blanc Meisters struck fountain pen. Hopefully I'm saying
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: that correctly. And I think it was made in the
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: 90s to early 2000s. So if I were to be
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: very specific.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Um, it has like an 180 nib. It's made in
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: sterling silver and I'm trying to Google like what the
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: retail price would be in this day and age. It
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: should be about 1000. Yeah, it stands around there, but
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: his pen sold at an auction for $461,500. Wow, that's
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: actually crazy. But hey, a part of history, man. So
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: you asked me earlier if I could, um,
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: Inherit something or buy something like a collection or an
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: item from a famous person, what would it be, right? OK.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: Sonia's Stanley Cup.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: Actually, you might be wondering why I haven't brought my
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: Stanley Cup to the office recently. I left it at
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: the photo studio last week. I haven't gone back to
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: get it yet. You and that Stanley Cup wasn't was
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: not meant to be, but OK, give me your answer. Yeah. Um,
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: so this might be interesting and you might be thinking
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: I will say someone like a famous politician or, uh,
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: you know, public figure. Actually, it's Kendall Jenner's car collection.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: Hold on.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: It's her vintage car collection. I would love to own that.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: So in her vintage car collection, she has very hard
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: to find um types of vehicles that you just won't
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: usually see on the roads. OK. So, um, from Porsches
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: to uh to, to, you know, your very vintage Mercedes,
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: things that you just can't find on the market right now.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: So if you just go do a quick search on
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: social media, Kendall Jenner's vintage car collection, you'll be very
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: pleasantly surprised because the girl has good taste when it
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: comes to automobiles. Good, good.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: For me, I think I'll go something sports related. I'll
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: bid for maybe a signed Ronaldo jersey or a Messi
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: jersey or if, for example, Ronaldo puts his watch up
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: for auction, that's gonna go into the millions. Yeah, I
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: don't even think I have the money to buy it
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: or auction for it or bid for it. I'm not wrong,
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: Ronaldo has a very expensive Jacob Jacob and watch. I
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: can't remember how much it was, but it was in
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: the millions, I think. It's made exclusively for him.
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, Drake recently had Rolex made an exclusive iced
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: out Rolex for him that's one of one. So a
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: lot of these collectibles, normal people like us cannot buy lah,
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: and we don't have the money to buy it also
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: like a handwritten note or former President Barack Obama. I
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: would like to bid for it, frame it up. There
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: you go. OK, so give us a call 669-11987. If
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: money is no issue for you and you could easily.

• 27:02
  Speaker 1: at Over Easy.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: 12 years ago, formerly known as the pre-game before Butter Factory. Yeah,
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: and they've been there for a long time. So they've
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: stood the test of time. They, they know what they're doing.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: Great food, great drinks, they got beer pong showdowns, cocktail parties.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: So give us a call. Talking about um if money
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: were no object and you were able to own.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: Um, an item that was previously owned by a famous
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: person out there. It could be, um, a very famous
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: politician or a celebrity or anyone at all. Yeah, I
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: want to say hello to Lim on WhatsApp at 90050987. Morning, Kim.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: For me, that'll be Mr. B. There'll be Mr. Bean's teddy,
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: not just a collectible, but practical as well. Replace my
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: chocho pillow. Oh wow.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: So we're talking the actual, actual prop on the set
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: of Mr. Bean. Yeah, yeah, I mean, look, that, that
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: is pretty iconic as well. So to, to that, I'm
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: sure someone out there, a museum or something owns it
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: right now, right? Or maybe like the United Kingdom Museum
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: of Television and stuff. say hello to Wayne who goes, Hey,
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: Sonia and Joakim, for me it'll be JK Rowling.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: If money was not an issue, I would ask her
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: for something money still cannot buy one ordinary day from
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: her life before she became famous. I would want the
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: old photos, the rejection letters she got, the embarrassing first
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: attempt she made to publishers, the notes she scribbled when
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: nobody knew her name, and the story of the moment
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: she almost gave up. Anyone can own something a famous
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: person touched, I would rather have a piece of the
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: person they were before the world started watching.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: Interesting. I love that answer. What a great answer. Yeah, wow. OK, well,
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: we got more of your stories coming through and more
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: calls coming up as well. Michelle is holding on the line.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: By the way, on the topic of JK Rowling, right,
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: having been to Scotland and I love, yeah. Almost every
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: single cafe you go to in Edinburgh has a, has
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: a small sign that says JK Rowling was here. So
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: some people on Reddit and online.
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: Instagram posts are saying it's a scam. It's a tourist trap.
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: It's just to put there so you think that she
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: was there, yeah, exactly, yeah. Anyway, uh, we'll get to
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: your calls and still time for you to get those in,
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: by the way. Welcome back. In case you just joined us,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: we're talking about if you could own something from a
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: famous person out there or maybe, you know, um, a
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: really famous public figure, religious figure, or maybe even a celebrity,
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: what would it be?
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: Maybe aside from Ronaldo or Messi or something sports related, right?
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: I might go for an electric guitar autographed by Carlos Santana.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: Oh wow, OK, that's a big. It's a classic gift
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: on display and maybe if I can ever donate it
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: to a museum for people to go and see, I'll
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: do that as well. Or maybe even something from the
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: Apple archives, you know, that would be so cool, right?
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: iPhone autographed by Steve Jobs could be that one. I'm
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: not sure where they keep that, but it must exist
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: in a vault in a vault. It must, it must
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: exist somewhere. Michelle is on the line right now. What
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: about you? Uh, yeah, the one thing that I'll probably
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: want to have is, is the Michael Jackson, um, gloves,
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: and I will use it every day to my PT
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: lesson and train my clients. Hold on, you.
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: The glove. Are you sure? Don't lah. Don't use the glove.
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: You got to do. Let's go. You got to frame
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: it up. You know what, Michelle, if you ever do
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: bid for a Michael Jackson glove and you get it, I,
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: I really hope you display at the museum so all
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: of us fans can go and have a look. Actually,
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm so curious now that she mentioned it,
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: did it ever get sold off? Let me do a
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: quick check right now. Who's the current owner? Who's the
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: current owner?
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: Of Michael. I'm GPTing this right now. Drake? Actually, no. Interestingly,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: it's Hong Kong. Yeah, it's currently owned by, I think, um,
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: an organization in Macau.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: So, um, yeah, they bought it. This organization bought it
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: and Guinness World Records lists Ponte 16 as the owner
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: in MJ Gallery in Macau. So yes, in Macau currently
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: we are talking 25, the rhinestone glove.
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: Um, this is interesting. It was sold for almost $500
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: as well. Wow. That's the same price as Mr. Lee
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: Kuan Yew's pen. Yeah, I mean, it's more la because
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: it's USD $420,000 so that's more than half a million
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: dollars Sing dollars. Just fun fact for you this morning.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: By the way, I just read this, you know, Drake.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he owns the 1984 Victory Tour Swarovski Michael Jackson glove,
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: the one that he wore for the album cover. Um,
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: does it say how much he bought it for? No,
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: it doesn't. Oh, interesting. I'm guessing somewhere in the 100,000+
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: + ranges, hundreds of thousands. Drake is actually one guy
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: I'm very curious about his finances. Like he doesn't.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: I mean, he seems to be very wealthy, of course,
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: you know, he's Drake, but given how quiet he was
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: over the past few years, I'm sure he has other
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: businesses that he's doing that's churning him money because he's
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: still spending money like, you know, like crazy.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: To follow him for sports bets always seem to curse
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: the team that he bets on. OK, back to more
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: of your messages. If you could own something from a
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: very well-known person, a famous person, could be a politician, celebrity,
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: sports person, whatever, what would that item be? Ronaldo's watch.
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: He has too many. The one that he wears the
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: Jacob Jacob. Jacob. Jacob Couture. What am I saying? Never mind.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: You don't know. OK, going to the WhatsApp number that
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: we have 90050987. Want to say good morning to Belle. Morning, Sojo.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: If money was not an issue, I would get.
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: Original cast signed script from Friends. Oh, I love that.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: I've binged the entire 10 seasons 7 times. I can
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: literally read the page and hear Chandler's voice in my head.
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: Rest in peace, Matthew Perry. Uh, you know, I still
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: watch reruns of Friends just because it's so feel good,
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: you know, and
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: I, it was the kind of show that I knew
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: it existed when I was a kid and growing up, right?
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: But I think it was too adult for me to
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: understand at the time. So, of course, when it came
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: to Netflix, it was a treat for everyone, especially for
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: the millennials. One more coming in from AQ AQ you say, hey, Sojo,
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: I would like to have a clay figure from a
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: Pokemon card artist. The artist goes by.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: Yuka Mori and she designed her Pokemon cards with clay
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: figures and I collect those cards that have her as
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: the artist. There's a museum in Japan that has her
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: clay figures, but it would be so cool to have one. Yeah,
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: you're right. OK, so I'm very curious because I went
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: to search, um, Cristiano Ronaldo's collaboration with Jacob and Cole. Yeah. So, um,
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: his collaboration retail.
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: For the base model, about $30,000. OK. But the other
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: more ultra exclusive diamond encrusted ones go from $1.3 to
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: $1.6 million for one watch. But I'm sure that after
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: he's worn it and it's become a part of history,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: and he puts it up for auction, it's gonna like,
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: I don't know, times 10, the amount of the price.
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: I can't even.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: The starting bid, it's OK. I'll just go there and watch. Yeah,
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: and I wonder who would be, you know, billionaire will
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: buy it, right? I mean, they just buy it and
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: they put it in like a shelf for display in
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: their mansion. You know what? I'm gonna say this, I show. Oh,
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: he might. I think he'll definitely bid for the watch
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: and do his best to get it. Honestly, I think
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: he will have like what, let's say it will be
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: worth about 20 million in the future. I think he
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: can afford it.
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, 100%. Yeah, exactly. He has a long way to go.
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: Time for some last few messages and a last call
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: over here. If you could own something from someone very famous,
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: all inspired by Mr. Lee Kuan Yew's pen being sold
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: for $461,500. Singapore. Yeah, OK, so close to half a million,
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: which has the engraving SM Lee Kuan Yew during his
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: tenure as SM before he became the MM.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: Uh, between the years 1990 to 2004, I think a very,
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: a very core time as well, very important time for Singapore. Anyway,
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: last two messages. We got one coming in from Lufian. Morning,
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: Sonia and Joakim. Guess who my boy bumped into during
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: training at Singapore Sports School last weekend. Took a photo
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: with Singapore's sprint queen herself, Shanti Pereira. Oh, that's nice.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: She was so happy we went to fetch him, keep
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: sick for life. Maybe this picture could be.
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: Worth something big in 10 years. Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: Did you sign it, I hope. In that case, I'm
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: going to bid for Joseph Schooling's Olympic gold medal. If
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: I own it, I'll display it. But will he ever
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: put it up? I don't think so. Like. Do not
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: do anything with it. Keep it as you earned it rightly. Yeah.
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: It's been a while since we've heard from him. Maybe
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: we should invite him back to just have a chat.
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: I think recently he just did something scholarship related. There
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: we go. Yeah, I love that he's giving back to education.
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: Especially in sports. OK, last but not least, Desmond, what
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: about you? Uh,
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: if I could really, money is not an issue, then
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: I would really love to own something that Jesus Christ wore,
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: probably part of his robe or his sandal or something
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: that would be really incredible and so sacred.
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: Wait, I'm so curious, where in the world contains, where
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: do they keep these things? It's not proven, but I'm
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: speculating it could be in the lowest depths of the.
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: vaults, I'm just speculating here. Yeah, like, you know, all
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: these novels that you read or like theories out there, right? Yeah,
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: thank you very much, Dan Brown, what, what would you
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: do with it if you were able to own a
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: piece of Jesus' robe? Would you keep it or keep
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: it in a glass vault or something? Yeah,
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: I would, it would definitely be in some display case
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: somewhere and I will be proudly showing this to people and, and,
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: you know, to.
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: Uh, you know, to unbeliever friends who have not been
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: saved yet, I can tell them that if Jesus Christ
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: ever walked the earth, and this is some piece of him.
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: Wow. OK, so if and when you get that, please
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: invite us to your house so that we can get
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: extra blessed.
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: Yes, be in the presence. My soul will be cleansed.
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: I'm just kidding I think this one might need a
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: few more ropes for you.
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: Now only one person can walk away with that beautiful
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: prize thanks to Over Easy. They've been there for forever,
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: you know, they know what they're doing. And if you
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: want some drinks, some bites, beautiful view of the bay,
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: and some beer pong, why not? So today's question was,
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: what is an item of yours that you've left with
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: your ex and vice versa, and you try to get
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: it back or give it back to them. Today's winner,
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: I want to give it to Vanessa who called us earlier.
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: Congratulations. Having a t-shirt returned to her that isn't even hers.
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: But she didn't bother to tell her ex. She's just like, hm, OK, whatever.
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: That's interesting. I mean, it would make me really curious.
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: I would want to solve the mystery, but you know,
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: sometimes some things are better left unsaid. Sometimes you don't
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: want to know. For more info, please visit OEasy SG
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: on Instagram for everything that they're up to for the
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: benefit of those who weren't tuned in earlier. Yes, can
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: you please update us about your ankle and what happened? OK, OK,
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: so I just updated our intern yesterday. I was solo, right?
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: So I kept saying for Sony not being here on
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: a Monday.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: I know I'll leave it to her to tell you
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: the story on today. So go for it. You know, I,
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: I would say between, well, with the both of us,
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: we will always show up for our show unless we
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: really cannot, OK, unless it's really like there's some reason
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: we cannot show up, we won't because, you know, getting
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: a cover for the morning show is quite impossible impossible
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: at the last minute, especially. So thankfully, there's two of us,
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: but Sunday evening, um, I played a game of paddle
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: and the fact that I have to repeat this again,
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: I'm going to get nagged at by my parents again. Hello.
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: But, um, as you know, I've already got a weak
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: ankle because I fell like not too long ago. I
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: missed a step right outside my Pilates class and I
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: fell on the ground, on the road, on the road, OK?
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: I'm still looking for the two girls that helped me out.
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: They're so sweet. Um, they did not seem Singaporean, but
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: if you know them, yeah, please let me know.
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: And prior to that, I had twisted my ankle because
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: I didn't wear the right court shoes when I was
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: playing when I was learning how to play paddle. So
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: then I bought proper court shoes that year. I sprained
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: it 3 times, the same angle, including this one right now. Yeah.
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: So I, I never went to a doctor or orthopedic.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: I didn't go, OK. I was just limping about. So.
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: Sunday night after icing it for quite some time and
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: you know, putting anti-inflammatory like cream and all that, it
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: still wasn't going down. In fact, the swelling got worse.
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: So I texted, finally at close to 10 actually, I
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: texted Joe and our boss Janice, and I say, hey guys,
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: I hate to do this to you, but I was
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: hoping this would die down, but I can barely like
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: walk 5 steps. It will take like an hour to
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: walk to the car, basically.
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: So I told them, unfortunately, I really can't come in,
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: but I will go see um a doctor the next morning,
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: which was yesterday. So I went and he did a
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: quick assessment. I'm sure that you're used to this because,
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: you know, you run a lot, you go to the
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: orthopedic place quite often. So he did a quick test
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: on both my ankles, the good ankle and the injured ankle,
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: and then he looked at me and he goes, you
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: are most likely born with very loose joints.
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: Because when he moved it right on my left side,
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: which is the OK part, it doesn't hurt at all,
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: but it's very easy to move about and like click,
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: you know. So he said, yeah, you're likely born with
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: loose joints and you should really truly just wear a guard,
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: regardless of whether it's injured or not, because now you
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: already know that your right side is very weak. I
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: think your birthday is very soon. I'll buy you a helmet.
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: I'll buy you a helmet, elbow pads, knee guards. That's fine. I,
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: I fell on my elbow before I got a big
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: scar here. I'm looking at the picture you sent me
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: on Sunday. Wow, your, your ankle is swollen, man. It
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: is swollen. I know, I know. And today in the
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: studio she was elevating her foot for a while. I
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: went next to it and I went, Sons, your foot
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: is as big as my hand.
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: Yes, I'm a small person, OK? I'm, I'm not a
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: big person. I'm small. And um my, my, my ankle
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: currently has fused with my calf, so it's a cankle.
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: It's a can's officially a canker. Yikes. Well, if you're
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: going through anything similar, I feel you. I feel you.
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: Funny thing is our good friend Ben King has injured
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: his leg as well, and, um, both of us have
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: to meet for a work thing this week. You're like
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: ankle buddies. We have one pair of working legs between us.
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: Like, what's going on? You can team up and walk together. Yeah, exactly.
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: We are finally reunited, um, although Joakim has spent half
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: the morning just laughing at me. I mean, because I
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: injured my ankle again. I'm spending my afternoon with you. Yes,
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: oh yes, I think this makes up for the past
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: 7 days I've not been here. Can I just say something?
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: I just realized that because we have to shoot at
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: Marina Bay Sands later, that's one of the biggest malls
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: here in Singapore.
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: You got to give me 3 business days to walk, OK,
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: from the lift to the destination and also we are
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: hosting a walkathon on Saturday morning. I have faith that
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: I'll be better by then, but for NBS today, maybe
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: you want to standby wheelchair.
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: You wheel me, wheel me to the restaurant faster. They
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: see me rolling. No, no, no, I, if I let
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: Joakim do that, you will never hear the end of it.
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna speed down the Marina Bay Plaza area, yes,
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: with you. Hey, stop it. We don't need another accident. Oh,
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: there we go.
