This week on A Bit of Culture, Kam Raslan welcomes the return of Bernice Chauly to the panel & producer Ali Johan jumping in to complete the trio. Kam kicks off with his thoughts on mass migration, touching on different eras of migration from the Anglo-Saxons to our very own Malay diaspora. Bernice then reminisces some of the best times of her life in the 1980s by recollecting very typically 80s cultural touch points. And finally, Ali asks the panelists - how to listen to Classical music.
