  Speaker 1: Good next to you.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Kicking off your day in the best way. It's Sonia
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: and Joakim on the shock circuit. Well, good morning. Welcome

  Speaker 1: to a beautiful Wednesday. More treats coming your way before

  Speaker 1: you get to school. We want you to have your
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: cloud nine concert tickets. And how about some Michael tickets
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: from 987 movie night. Stay with us here on the show.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Don't go anywhere. Singapore's number one hit music station. Good
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Morning Sunshine.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Well, um, with the lead up to Coachella Wee two
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: coming up very soon, I'm not sure if you've seen
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: all the videos that's been coming up. Can I just
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: address one in just a while? Let's go. In fact,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: I think more than one influencer has done this. OK.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: And wait, wait, wait, before you, you face palm, OK,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: can you guess what you think it's about? Just take
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: a guess. Coachella, Coachella, Coachella expose.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Not exactly. Not exactly, but it's got to do with
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: people trying to hustle for free tickets into VIP. But
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you what the ploy was, OK, and I
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: think more than one influencer has been busted for doing
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: this already. OK, let's do it. More details in just
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: a bit. OK, so, um, sorry, I went to get
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: my coffee.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Um, time for a little bit of tea when it
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: comes down to Coachella. I mean, it's becoming a bit
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: of a festival where they make you aspire to go there, right?
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: They make it seem as if they are the pinnacle
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: of festivals around the world. I mean, OK.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: I think the intention was right from the start. You know,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: if you read up the history of Coachella, how it
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: began and all that, as with every music festival, it
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: begins with a passion for music. Can I be honest
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: with you? Social media ruined everything. No, exactly, exactly. So
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: what happened was, um, for this year's Coachella, there were
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: a couple of um influencers, not, not from Singapore, I
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: think mostly like in the US, OK. Um, they came
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: out to do like a video and it's one of
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: those like POV kind of videos.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: And I watched one of those videos firsthand, and she
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: starts by like having a very like panicky face, you know,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: she's like, oh my gosh, guys, you know, I'm, I'm
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: packing for my flight right now.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Um, and I'm going to Coachella, but the brand that
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: was supposed to pay for my entire trip there ghosted me. Yeah, so, um,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: you know, we're now appealing to any brands whatsoever who
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: are already having activations there to, um, to maybe host
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: us or, you know, work with us. Uh, please, like
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: we've already, you know, done this and that and we've
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: already prepared everything. Legit or not. Exactly. So when more
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: than one influencer.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: started doing this, um, I think brands actually started looking
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: into their list, right? And all across the board, because then,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: how many brands are actually officially working with Coachella, right?
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, could be many, but, um, most of them
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: actually came out to say like, we don't have record
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: of engaging any of these influencers. So I think brands
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: decided to like come up and defend themselves also because
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: this is actually a really bold claim, saying that like
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: a brand engaged you then dropped you or ghosted you.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: I mean,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: So people are starting to call these influencers out saying, guys,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: I don't think this is even legit. Don't try to
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: fool us. You know trying to scam out, you know,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: like hustle for a free stay. Very good on the
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: brands for doing this. I feel that they should name
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: and shame these influencers from overseas. I really hope no
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Singaporeans did this.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Even though I know that we do have people, I
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: think Jade Rassi is at Coachella. Yes, she's there. Shout
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: out Ian Gan as well. Oh, he's there too. Yeah,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: he's there, but I believe on his own expense. OK, OK. Look, honestly, yeah,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: it's aspirational to be working with a brand that will
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: fly you to certain places, right? But if you truly
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: love an act or music, I encourage you just try
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: and save up and go and attend it because from experience,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: as Joakim and I can tell you, it will be
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: a very different experience when you are.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Representing a brand, you got to worry about a lot
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: more and deliver a lot more. At this point I
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: don't ask for much. Let me just successfully.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Joe, it has not happened for me in my whole lifetime. OK,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: so I'm not sure. This time around, we do have
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: tickets for you to catch Media Corp's Cloud nine as
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: you just heard. We got not 1, not 2, but
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: 4 tickets for you. It's happening May 9th, but Sonia,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: I have a question.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Before we do the whole cloud nine ticket giveaway, do
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: you believe in the phrase strength in numbers? Sometimes, yes,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: sometimes I do. I think it's applicable. For example, if
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: you see a big threat, one Sonia Chew might not
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: be enough to eliminate this big threat, right? I mean,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: depends on what threat. Have you heard me scream?
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Oh, have you heard my voice? It's very loud. Yes,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: I have. OK, so using that theory, I want to
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: take you over to Sungai Bulo. Oh, OK. What's happening now?
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Another crocodile sighting reserve here in Singapore. You are absolutely right.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Oh really? Crocodile sighting, but I think the crocodile, even
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: though it's just chilling over there, yeah, guess who was
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: not happy.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: The monkeys. No, no, wait, wait, wait, give me, give
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: me a clue.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: The otters. Yes, the otters were not happy. The crocodile
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: was there. What do they want to do? Honestly, it's
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: like one otter fighting a crocodile. The otter might lose,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: but there was a gang of otters. They believe in
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: strength and numbers, and they chased away the crocodile. Oh
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: my God, it actually was successful. It's like watching 7
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Sonia Chews chase away one Joakim Gomez, but actually 1
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: Sonia Chew is enough to chase away 1 Joakim Gomez
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: as well.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: OK, um, I just have a question. How big was
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: this crocodile and is it always around? I, I'm trying
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: to figure out whether is it the same crocodile that
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: doesn't have a tail. No, it's a different one. It
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: looks massive, you know, and it's a crocodile. You, you
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: would think the predator will definitely prey on the otters. No,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: but you know, otters can be really fierce. They can have,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: they're small, but they got a lot of attitude. It
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: sounds like me. From the looks of it, yes. Also, um,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: just in case you were wondering.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: A group of otters is most commonly known as a raft,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: a raft of otters when they're in the water. Yeah,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: because they hold hands when they float. It's so cute.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Apparently it's called a romp of otters on land.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: But people also call it like a bevy of otters
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: or a family of otters. Just, just fun facts for
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: you this morning. And the way they're populating here in Singapore,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: a romp is correct. We got a very special treat
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: 3 times this week for you. Uh-huh. So if you
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: call in today, you automatically walk away with 4 tickets

• 7:02
  Speaker 1: but you know what, um, we want to treat you

• 7:07

  Speaker 1: for an act. Yeah, and we're covering most of the

• 9:17
  Speaker 1: I just want to give a shout out to my
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: ex-students in Clementi To Secondary as well. Hi everyone. Miss Liu,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: which subject did you teach? Uh, I teach English. Oh well,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: as you can hear, I'm as you can hear.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: Joakim's worried for his own English. You know what, I
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: just googled this. I realized C H I J Kellogg
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: is walking distance to Radima's Primary, 11 minute walk away.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: That's right. Coming up after 7, aside from the fact
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: that yes, we've got $8000 for you, um.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: There's an incident that happened not here in Singapore, but
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: somewhere across the causeway that got me thinking as well, wow,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: food prices are really going up. OK, we have that.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: Can I ask you a question, Sonia? OK. Where do
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: you not want to see a video screen? A video screen.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: Where do I not want to see you. OK, OK. In,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: in a library. I don't remember the last time I
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: went to a library.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I never really thought about that. What a weird question.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: Putting screens in cars, right? Oh no, really? Wait, but
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: this has existed for a while. It's just that I
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: never thought anyone really does that. It's slowly growing here
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: in Singapore.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: So, um, well, speaking of home, at home right now
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: in Singapore, you would know that people are saying, oh,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: things are increasing in price, you know, food is increasing
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: in price, everything's increasing. I think I saw a video
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: that prices have gone up increasing by $1 or so.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: For what is it like the cost of or what's
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: the reason again? The total value just in general, is it? OK, OK. Well, um,
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: we're not spared even when we go across the causeway.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Because I think for most Singaporeans, the reason why we
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: want to go to like places like Johor or JB
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: in particular is that it is cheaper to eat, to shop,
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: you know, to do anything is a little bit cheaper there.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Significantly cheaper though, I would say, not, not a little bit, significantly.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: Is it still 3 to 1? Uh, I'm not sure
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: about the currency right now, but for this Singaporean man who, um,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: went to this food stall over in JB, he ordered
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: like a, you know, something like nasikanda kind of vibes, right?
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: So it's, it's, uh,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: You order a bunch of, it's like it's like tai
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: fan but nasikanda, right? Yeah, OK, so, um, over at
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: this restaurant, he decided to order a squid, like one sotong, OK.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: So typically, according to sources, one sotong, one full sotong
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: should not cost more than like 4 or $5 Singapore dollars, OK,
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: in JB because it's the whole, it's the whole piece.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: It's not just sliced. You are looking at the alive.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: You look like atong right now. Thank you very much.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: He unfortunately was charged $11.60 Singapore dollars for one.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: One piece of Sotong, which works out to be 36 rm. Yeah, exactly. So, um,
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: when he was charged $11.60 you know, he was obviously mortified, right?
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: When he looked at the receipt, he was like, what? He,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: he took to social media immediately, said it feels like
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: a rip-off, um, and you know, that was just one
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: item that he ordered in his nasi champo, right? So
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: including everything.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Else, it was going to cost him up to almost
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: like what, like, I'm assuming almost $20 for his meal.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: And given how he's in JB, would he dare argue
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: with the store owner. So I think he just kind
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: of took to social media. I don't think he made
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: a scene or anything at all. Um, so his meal
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: reportedly totaled to up to 17++ dollars, which is quite
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: expensive if you go to JB and eat this meal, right?
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: Um, and I think from another store owner that's near
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: this particular shop that overcharged for the Sotong, um, they
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: did say that typically it's going to be $490 Sing
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: dollars for one whole Sotong, OK.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Um, netizens are saying, hey, you know what, as tourists, right,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: we encourage you to confirm the prices before ordering. So look,
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: I think, um, even their own netizens are saying, hey,
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: if you are visiting here, just make sure that you check,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: $17 for Nasi Chassanda, that's like food court prices here
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: in Singapore, man. Is it that expensive here in Singapore?
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: In certain areas like have you been to a nasi
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: padang store in a food court in a mall? You
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: mean MBS, this kind of vibe MBS Vivo City, even
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: like your more upmarket malls. Yeah, 2 meat, fish, and
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: one vegetable, $19. Think about it. You never know, yeah.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's, yeah, yeah, you're not wrong, but um, yeah, this, uh,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: let this be a reminder to all of us wherever
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: we go, wherever we travel, I'm sure.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: People will realize that we're tourists. So just be extra
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: careful and check before you pay. Try to find a
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: menu with the prices, yeah. More often than not, these
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: places menu. I'm joking. This happened to me yesterday, and
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: then this morning I was scrolling through some news publication
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: websites here in Singapore. I actually saw on a citizen
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: journalism website that somebody called this out as well. And
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: this can happen on your Grab.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: Tadas, ride, whatever apps you use, OK, where if you
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: book a car and the car's slightly new and high
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: tech and all that, they could have a video screen
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: right next to the driver, and sometimes I've entered cars
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: where the driver is streaming off YouTube playing songs. That's
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: OK because it's just a song that's playing, but some
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: are actually watching.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Shows and streaming movies or drama series or even YouTube
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: music videos. OK, to, to be honest, like as a driver,
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: I feel like streaming any video of any kind that's
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: right next to me is distracting enough. Like music, I
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: need music, that's for sure, but the visuals, is very distracting.
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: And if he is not subscribed to YouTube Premium, there'll
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: be ads that play.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: And sometimes for these ads, and this happened to me yesterday,
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: it's the, the, the mummy movie that's being shown in
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: cinemas now. It's the, it's the scary one, right, with
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: the little girl. Yeah, so I was a little bit alarmed. Yeah,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: it's not your thing. So I was telling my driver, bro,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: if you think you can switch or turn it down.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: He said, Hey, why I can multitask la. Oh my God,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: that's not the point. You shouldn't be multitasking when you're driving. Yeah,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: and this exact same.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: situation happened to somebody and this person shared it online
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: saying that I feel a bit alarmed whenever I see
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: a video screen in a car because by right the
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: driver should be focusing and even without a video screen,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: there will be accidents. Yeah, true. Why do, why do
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: you want to encourage more accidents with a video being
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: played while you're driving? Actually, correct me if I'm wrong.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: If you're tuning in now and you know more about
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: tech and stuff more than more than me but um
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: from what I
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: I understand. Certain cars actually, they do have a safety
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: feature where you cannot play. It may come with an
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: inbuilt screen, but it doesn't allow you to play videos.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Like even if you fire off like Netflix or YouTube, the,
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: the visuals don't go up. The audio comes out, like
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: you can listen to music if you want, but it
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: doesn't come out on the screen. So I think this
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: could be a safety feature for some cars because you're
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: looking at the roads, you're looking at your phone for directions,
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: you're looking at your phone for bookings.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: If you were to look at the screen, even a
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: small glance during like a jump scare or an exciting scene,
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: what's to say something won't happen? Yeah, no, I mean,
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: like you said, right, um, I, I hope that they
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: have some regulation about this. I don't needs to be
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: looked at. Actually, I think, you know, the, the screens
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: at the back of the driver's seat to entertain the passengers,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: it used to be a thing. It used to be
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: a thing like I, I remember this.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: When they started installing it and stuff, that's fine because
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: you can turn it off if you want. So again,
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: disclaimer to all drivers here in Singapore, private hire drivers,
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: we're not taking away your fun. This is more of
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: a safety thing, to be honest with you. And as
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: a passenger, I, I feel more. Actually, I think I
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: worry more as a passenger than I do as a driver. Well,
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: we know you. We know you love money. I think
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: all of us do. How about $8000 in cold hard cash.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, fantastic. You know what I always wondered? How's the
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: cash delivered to them? Is it a pay now transfer?
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: Is it a check? Is it what is it? Cash
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: cashier's check. Yeah. No, you know what, that's something I
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: want to ask boss Janice, like how do we award
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: every year that goes by, we always give out cash prizes.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: How do we award these winners? I feel like whoever
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: wins Secret Sound, we should the person. And can you
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: imagine if they really received a payout and the note
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: was Secret Sound winner like right there.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: Can you give us more credit? OK, 987. OK, let's
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: boss and ask her, OK? OK. How do they usually
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: transfer the money to the winner? Let's ask her right now.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: I'll do it now.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: 87 Secret.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: What's that sound
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Hello, good morning. I'm AK here. Hello.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: Is this your first time calling through? Yes. Alright, I
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: must say though, 8K sounds quite close to 8K, could
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: this be a sign? Let's go. Is it written in
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: the stars? The universe giving us signs here. Listen very carefully.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: AK, for $8000 what is a 987 secret sound? Abacus.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: What we learned in primary school, right? Abacus. I wonder
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: whether do we still learn it in this day and age,
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: but let's see.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: You are incorrect. Your chance to play 987's secret sound continues.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: That.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: AK, I'm so sorry to say that Abacus has been
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: guest before. So it is not the correct answer. You
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: have to tune in every show, OK? Thank you. Bye bye.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: So one guess, win this.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: What's that? OK, so, um, something just happened this morning
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: where my own partner Germs dropped me a message. OK.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: Congratulations are in order for one of our friends because
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: he just proposed and, and she said yes. Congratulations. Yeah, congrats. So, uh,
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: it was a long time coming, you know, they've been
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: together for a bit now and I think we were
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: all kind of expecting, anticipating for it to happen this year,
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: sometime this year.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: And uh the interesting thing is, when that friend of
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: theirs sent the picture to the group chat, it was
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: just a picture of, um, well, a little picture of
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: the setup, but really nothing much was explained in the photos.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: He had no caption, no other text. He just sent
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: the photo. So it's not like the selfie of my finger. No, no, no,
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: no such selfie. So it was just a picture of
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: the ring box.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: And the sign that said, will you marry me, right?
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: And he sends that to their chat with like no context,
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: just like that. OK, it's self-explanatory. And the chats 3
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: of them. So 3, they're really close, like 3 really
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: close friends. And so one of the bros goes, congrats! OK.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: And then, wait, let me just read out the rest
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: of it to you. Oh, here we go. So it goes, congrats.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: And then, um, Germs replies, congrats, and the other guy goes, nice.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: And that's the end of the conversation. The guy who
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: said nice, nice, yeah, was he trying to be different?
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: Just nice. Just say like congrats. So I was like,
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: when Germs send me the screen grab because of course
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: I went to text them and say congrats as well. Nice.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: But um, when he sent me the screen grab, I
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: was like, oh my Lord, you bros are like men
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: of little words or what? OK, before you bunch me
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: up with them.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: You would know that, OK, when you say man, man,
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: it's not me lah. I'm, I'm more new age. I'm
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: more dramatic, I'm more expressive. dramatic. So, OK, but also
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: I feel on this episode of Men Explained, I, I,
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: I feel like um it's also in relation to the
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: picture that was sent.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: Um, OK, hold on, hold on. So Germs, when we
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: got engaged, Germs sent the same bro chat, a picture
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: of us, and I was laughing and holding my hand up.
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: They also responded with one or two words like, oh,
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: so I thought this is a guy thing or what? Like, OK,
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: here's the, here's the thing, OK. So the way I
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: Shared with my friends, you would know because you're one
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: of them. I immediately called people. I called the group chats,
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: I video called people, you know, but of course, the
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: first people I called were my parents, um, and, and
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: they were all like video calls and all screaming and responding.
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: So there's a huge difference when women announce something big
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: versus men. no.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: There is a difference. This is not gender specific, OK.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: If my friends get engaged or they announce they're having
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: a baby, I will video bubble myself saying, Oi, congrats.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: Oh my God, I'm so happy for you. You know,
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: it's those people who
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: We might not show emotion too much. That's the congrats. Nice!
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Exclamation mark. OK, let's let's let's find out from you
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: tuning in right now. 669-11987. Do you think there is
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: a big difference in the way men and women react?
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: I don't have to good news. You say don't have,
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: I have. It's how comfortable you are showing emotion.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: Perhaps, perhaps, but I think for the most part men
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: don't show as much emotion. That's the thing. Then there's me, yeah,
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: I know, but you already said that you're different and
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: you're more, you're dramatic. Yeah, yeah, you're like a sis
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: to me, you know, drama mama. They chelorette. You're not
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: a girl.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: Um, one of our friends just got engaged and it
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: triggered off a bit of a conversation between Joakim and I.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: In the difference between the way men and women react
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: to pieces of news like that, like when you have
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: something exciting to announce your chat, do the guys and
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: the girls react differently? Let's.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: Go to our messages first. I want to say good
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: morning to Ali, who says, morning Sokim. Unfortunately, I have
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: to disagree with Joakim. Oh, OK. There's a huge difference
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: between men and women. I have two chat groups, the boys'
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: chat groups and the mixed chat group. When I share
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: good news, the boys' chat did.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: The mixed chat buzzing. But one thing to note though,
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: the boys don't show much emotion, I know for a
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: fact they'll be there for me anytime, anywhere like the Avengers. Yes, really.
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: I mean, wait, wait, wait, Ali, so you mean to
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: tell me when you share good news, none of your
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: bros go, Hey, bro, hey, congrats, man, bro, but the
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: conversation will die very fast.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: Really, really, that's what I noticed with the guys in
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: the chat. You know what, maybe I've been hanging around
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: you too much, but you have a lot of female friends.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: That's the thing. Now I realize, I'm the kind, Hey bro, congrats.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: How did it happen? Oh, why, why today? You ask
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: a lot of follow-up questions, right? To which I realized
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: like germs and his bros, they don't ask these kind
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: of follow-up questions.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: Like, why are there no follow up? You're not asking
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: the right questions. OK, calm down. Joshua just texted in. Hey,
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: Sonia and Joakim, sharing my thoughts here. I tend to
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: think that ladies tend to use capital letters more.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: But when I look back, it's more context-specific. I think
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: sports loving men will react more dramatically, you know, when
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: menu scores late winners. Yeah, OK, I, I, I get
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: it I get it. You react to different things, different
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: things make you feel emotional, I guess. I don't know. OK,
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: I got one here from MK. It says, for me, yes,
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: men and women.
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: Have their differences in reacting to good news. Women, yes,
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: we know, are a bit more emotional. For example, you
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: can tell a woman, you're pregnant. They'll instantly video call you,
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: express their emotions, they might even cry for you. But men,
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: they'll be like, hey, congrats, good job. Nice. So yes,
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: that's my take on today's topic. I do agree.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: Sonia, it's true, it's true. If you ever tell me, Joe,
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: I'm pregnant and I reply to you, nice, deleting you.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: Unfollow, block, delete. Nice. With the thumbs up, right? OK, uh,
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: we're hilarious convos here. Keep it going. 669-11987 if you'd
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: like to call us or drop us a message 90050987
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: in exchange a pair of tickets for you to be
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: the first in Singapore to catch Michael. Um, it's based
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: on the life of Michael Jackson. Critic reviews are in good?
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: It's so far. Very good. OK, so we want you there.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: We want you there for sure. 987.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: night in just a week's time. And Joakim's just uh
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: run on down to get a quick breakfast. So I
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: think he ordered something and he's gonna be back in
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: just a couple of seconds because we're gonna take some
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: calls very soon. But first, more messages coming through now.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: This really just cracked us up this morning because um
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: I had a little text message coming through this morning
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: that one of our friends got engaged, and I was like, oh, congrats.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: Oh my God. I was like, how did it happen? Where?
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: Where did he do it?
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: Um, and, and it was so funny because my own
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: partner Germs, he sent me like a screen grab of
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: his boys chat where it was announced, and literally the guys,
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: there are 3 of them in that chat, they exchanged
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: like one-liners and like one word, you know, congrats, not
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: even congratulations, so happy for you, just congrats, full stop.
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: To which I said, wow, um, such a different way
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: that men and women react sometimes. I don't know if
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: it's gender-specific or personality-wise, but from what we're hearing so far,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: it could be gender-specific. Um, saying hi to, to A here,
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: you didn't quite leave your name.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: You said, morning, Sojo. Yes, the guys and the girls
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: always have different reactions to things. For ladies, they always
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: react to emotions. Guys react to levels of importance. Um,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: but when it comes to gossip or saying things about
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: other people, now that will blow up the chat. You're
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: not wrong. You're not wrong when it comes to that.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: Uh, we're gonna hit to phone lines actually. We've got
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: Sam on the line. Sam, what do you think? 100%.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: Why so? Tell us, Sam. I want to hear from you.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: Give us an example.
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: Well, I think like a guy, it's always like, oh,
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: good job, and, and that's it. We've got too emotional.
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: People think we're too involved, and then.
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: As for the ladies, it's natural to be expressive and emotional, right? True,
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: true.
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: Like we can't cry. I mean, I have to, I
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: had to share like the day when my wife told
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: me that she's pregnant. I'm like, good job.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: No way you said that, really? Wow, Sam, why like this? OK,
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: but judging from Sam's mentality, right, in that case, I'm
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: involved in everyone's business. The way I react to things.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, I'm the kind that will ask a
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: lot of follow-up questions too. I don't know whether it's
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: inherently like the ladies that might do that, but, OK, does,
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: does your wife feel like you lack a lot of emotion, Sam? Probably,
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: probably, but, well, that, that again, joking, it's you're unique,
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: you're special. Be yourself and please continue to be you.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: This
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: is such a very condescending tone of life. I love
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: that for you.
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: It's 3 years old. Sam, has your wife given birth yet?
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: Yes, of course. When you
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: held your baby for the first time, can you at
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: least cry? Give us something, man.
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I remember that the moment she, the moment the, the,
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: the gynae took her up from the, the tummy, I
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: was like, oh my God, she's so pretty. Oh,
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: Sam has emotions after all. I love that. Speaking of
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: the different ways men and women react, simply because um
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: an incident happened this morning where
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: I heard one of our friends got engaged, to which, uh, Germs,
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: my partner actually sent me the screen grab of what
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: happened in his buddy's chat, which is just like three bros,
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: and the way that they shared the engagement news was
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: so matter of fact and so like one-liner, one word,
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: you know, the responses included things like congrats, full stop, um,
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: nice exclamation mark.
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: To which I said, hey, you know what, the girls'
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: chat is lit, ah, compared to your boy's chat. OK lah.
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: I mean, when my best friend Iggy told me that
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: he got, uh, he, he, he proposed, yes, to his now, sorry,
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: tongue tied for a bit. I went, hey, bro.
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: Tell me how it happened, and I said no need lie.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: She said yes, that's the most important thing. OK, so
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: he's a very like he's a typical bro. He didn't
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: give any details. He can if he wants to. If
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: the topic is of his interest, he will give all
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: the details he loves. That means gossip or tea la. Yes,
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: I say good morning to Aisha. Aisha says morning, Soki.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: At least you didn't get a K. Yeah, stop. Many
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: men and boys are capable of that, are capable, yes.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: Had to, sorry. OK. 87. Alexo gonna be here in
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: Singapore this weekend, by the way, so make sure you
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: catch him. I think tickets for Palm Tree Music Festival
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: still going. Oh, it's Palm Tree. Yeah, Palm Tree. I
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: almost hit Palm Beach. Palm isn't it Palm Tree? Yes, yes,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: Palm Tree Palm Tree Music Festival.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: Palm Palm Beach is the seafood restaurant, right? Oh, that's
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: Long Beach, I think. Joe, you're getting it all mixed up.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: Pretty sure the seafood restaurant is called Long Beach. There's
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: a Palm Beach Seafood. Oh, there is Fullerton Road. Oh,
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: I didn't know that. Got it. OK, but you didn't,
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: you didn't know it was that one, right? No, no, no.
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: You were thinking of Long Beach, right?
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: I already know. See from your face. OK, more messages
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: coming through. We're talking about the main differences between the
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: way men and women react in your girls' chats versus
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: your boys' chats. I feel like there's always a massive difference.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: Say hello to A on WhatsApp. I'm with Sonia on
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: this one. Men definitely react differently to big news. My
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: close circle is made up of
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: Mostly girls. I love how we express our joys and
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: excitement when we share big news with each other. Even
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: random sharings get follow-up questions from my girls. Yeah, that
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: makes you feel like you belong in your group, right?
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: Men work differently. My partner is a great example. When
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: I share big news with him, he goes, yay.
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: See, I told you. When I share a photo of
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: my lunch or dinner, he goes, yum. Yeah, same. I mean,
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: same as germs, very similar. OK, again, I think it's
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: the expressions and the emotions part because if I had
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: a partner and she shared her lunch with me, I'll say, oh,
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: what made you crave this? How's the food? Is it spicy?
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: Is it that's way too much.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: Just a lunch picture. That's too much. That's too much.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: What's the right way to react to a lunch? No, nothing.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: Just for me, if it's a lunch picture, it's not
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: that big of news, right? I guess. So I'm OK
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: with just a one word response. It's fine. But like
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: I don't. I don't need the follow-up questions. Yeah, unless
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: I cooked it, then maybe I'll tell you more about it.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: So you got to judge the situation joking. Next time
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: I'll send you a picture of my lunch. I'll screenshot
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: your reply. I will just give you a thumbs up
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: because it's you, because it's you.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: Maddie, what about you? I think yes. Um, no, actually sorry,
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: it's for me. It depends on the person's personality. Yeah,
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: we agree with. OK, do you have an example for us? OK,
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: so I have been with my friends, right, since JC time,
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: so we've been together for 12 years. A lot of
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: things have happened. So any new thing that comes up
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: in one of our lives, right?
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: be like, oh, OK. So for example, one of our
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: friends got married, we'll be like, Oh, congrats. Oh, when's
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: the date? We'll be there. We might not be there. Hi,
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: so yeah, my friend, she was married for like 3 months,
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: and then after she dropped us a bomb text saying that, guys,
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: I'm officially free from the marriage now, and we were
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: just like, oh, how did that happen? And she just replied,
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: One sentence, it just happened like that. Oh my gosh, what?
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: That's like no details, very matter of fact. And so,
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: so we know her, her personality is just like that.
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: We don't, we don't really ask too many questions. So
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: she just says it as it is. Yeah, so you
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: know who, because I'm more dramatic. I cannot get to express,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: you know who I express it to? I express it
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: to my husband.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: You know what, me too. And, and can I guess,
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: a lot of the time your husband and my own
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: partner does this too. Sometimes if we go on for
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: too long, their expression starts going blank because they're zoning
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: out already. like, what? Why is it? What's going on?
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: What happened? I'll.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: You know, he's the man for you. He's the man
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: for you. Talking about the main differences between the way
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: men and women react. Sometimes in your guys's chat or
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: your girl's chats, right, you get very different types of reactions.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: You can trust the girls' chats to always give you
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: the kind of reaction and emotion you want. The bros
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: chat may be one-worded. Hey, it's true. I disagree. It's facts,
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: but never mind. Want to say good morning to Delilah.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: Hey there, Delilah.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: My team leader is a female. She replies with no emotion,
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: even at gossip. I quit telling her anything, gossip or not.
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: Her replies are usually, thanks. OK. Oh really? Did you
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: message him? No! With no exclamation marks. Oh, no expression
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: and no emojis. Oh man. No wonder she has no boyfriend.
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: Yo, that burn though Delilah giving us the burns in
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: the mosque. Somebody called her CDS is probably not her
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: real name actually at this 0.1 coming in from MK.
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: Hey guys, MK here for me.
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: Yes, men and women have their differences in reacting to
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: good news, as women are more emotional than men. Again,
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: I disagree. For example, you can tell the women you're
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: pregnant and they will instantly video call you and express
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: their emotions. Some will even cry tears of joy for you,
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: but as for men, on the other hand, they reply
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: with a, Hey, congrats, good job. So yeah, that's my
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: take on today's topic. It's true, it's true. I completely agree,
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: and for that we give you those tickets.
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: Congratulations, MK. Now, like, we always say it's very difficult
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: to choose a winner because look, all of your answers
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: are great, right? But um, hey, you know what, you're
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: the lucky winner here today. Those two tickets to be
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: the first in Singapore to catch Michael.
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: Can I, uh, just tell you what MK typed to
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: us right now? Three capital letters OMG Woohoo. Well, it
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: really sounds like you enjoy the movie. Now, this is
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: how men will react.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: Three letters, right? Exactly. So, to the point, once again,
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: please enjoy 987 movie night happens in just a week.
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: Sonia and Joe came here with you. Justin Bieber, of course,
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: having had a big weekend over the past week. I mean,
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: not just big weekend but big paycheck. Oh yeah, that's
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: for sure. $10 million. Wow.
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: You know, you know, you've made it when you can
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: invoice someone 10 million, that many zeros. I don't know
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: if we'll ever see that in our lifetime. That's quite
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: close to Chinese New Year period. That's nuts, man. Yeah,
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: but hey, you know what, this, it is what it is.
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: This is life, and I think it's quite relative because
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: um for people if they are.
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: Of that level already, right? Charging $10 million for example,
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: that could be our version of like $10,000. You know
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: what I mean? Because it's relative to them, like their
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: spending is different too and all that. I wonder how
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: much Sabrina Carpenter was paid for both Coachellas happened last
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: weekend and this weekend. And I believe that according to sources.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: It was one of the more expensive sets, la, so
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: we'll see. I don't know. Anyway, coming up in just
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: a little bit, like we mentioned, I've got some food
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: news just for you. This time number one hit music station,
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: Sonia and Joe came here with you. Justin Bieber, of course,
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: having had a big weekend over the past week. I mean,
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: not just big weekend but big paycheck. Oh yeah, that's
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: for sure. $10 million. Wow.
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: You know, you know, you've made it when you can
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: invoice someone 10 million, that many zeros. I don't know
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: if we'll ever see that in our lifetime. That's quite
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: close to Chinese New Year period. That's nuts, man. Yeah,
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: but hey, you know what, this, it is what it is.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: This is life and I think it's quite relative because
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: um for people if they are of that level already, right.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: Averaging $10 million for example, that could be our version
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: of like $10,000. You know what I mean? Because it's
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: relative to them, like their spending is different too and
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: all that. I wonder how much Sabrina Carpenter was paid
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: for both Coachellas happened last weekend and this weekend. And
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: I believe that according to sources, hers was one of
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: the more expensive sets, so we'll see. I don't know.
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: And it's time for some food news. You're gonna see
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: me sing this live on TikTok right now at 987.
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: Here we go. 123, food news. Food news. Sonia with
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: the good food news. Give it to us, Miss Chuw. OK,
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: so like I said earlier, um, it's got to do
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: with sandwiches, which I think both of us enjoy very much.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: It's just that I take very long to finish one
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: sandwich and you wolf it down in like 5 seconds.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: The same amount of time Sonia takes.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Finish a 6 inch. I finish my foot long. That's true. No,
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: it's true, honestly. And I think if Joakim were to
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: try and eat at the same pace as me, he
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: would just like fall asleep of boredom. He will. It's
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: not that bad. But um, I'm not sure when you
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: went to New York. I know you've been to New
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: York once and you've been to the US more than once, right?
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: You've heard of places like Cat's Deli, for example, right?
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: Famous delis. Um, they do have, I mean, the.
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: Because they love their sandwiches. They usually have like a
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: thick slice of cheese, you know, your meats and stuff
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: like that. Wow, it's so delicious and piping hot. A
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: tuna melts. Yes. So, um, coincidentally, today is the date
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: that you need to save because a new sandwich deli
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: is coming to town, joining the ranks of other popular
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: sandwich joints here. Um, this place is called Between Buns.
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: They're not entirely new to the scene. Um, they started
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: as a booming home-based business, giving a shout out to
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: Chef Amir actually during the pandemic, they won hearts for its, uh,
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: fried chicken semis. So the sandwich is really good. Then,
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: you know, they had pop-ups and things like that to,
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: I guess, test the market and test the crowd a
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: little bit.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: And guess what? Now, they've got a permanent home at
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: SBF Center along Cecil Street. So this is directly targeting
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: your working crowd. I think it's super smart because you
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: can just walk on in, buy a sandwich, pop off,
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: or you want to just stay there, it's fine as well,
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: but they've got um,
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: Classic deli staples like what you mentioned, tuna melts, hearty
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: breakfast sandwiches, cold brew coffees, fresh baked, wow, the list
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: goes on. I just realized you said SBF Center, right?
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: It's just below my gym. Oh, I'm gonna try it. OK. Oh,
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: I didn't know your gym was at Robinson Road for
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: lunch now. OK, 160 Robinson Road. Check around. It's gonna
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: be good news. Nothing bad. Which kind of cuisine for
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: this one? It will be, wow, this one is tough
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: to say, but it's related to.
