Cultural Touchpoints - Where Are They Now?

A Bit of Culture welcomes November with three different topics that will get you thinking deeply about things. Our first guest, Ong Kar Jin, kicks off the show by talking about our obsession with nostalgia, particularly the 90s and its promise of our dreams and aspirations. Then, it’s Kam’s turn to talk about his obsession with US politics, and why he’s focused on that, instead of Malaysian politics. After the break, our second guest, Julian Yap talks about cultural touchpoints that we used to collectively refer to and where they are at the moment. It’s an episode that you don’t want to miss!
