Dating Cat Life

In our first A Bit of Culture episode of the new decade, Kam Raslan is joined by tech meister Matt Armitage and BFM's resident movie buff Julian Yap. Matt kicks it off by discussing a recent article on genetic dating, a social app to help you find a date AND possibly avoid genetic mutation. Julian waxes lyrical on the recent musical film CATS and recounts her experience growing up dealing with her fear of cats; but also her fascination with the musical. And finally, Kam takes our culture vultures back through time to discuss the Christmas classic, It's A Wonderful Life. A film released in 1946 that was initially a box office disaster but have eventually received critical acclaim throughout the years.
