Living Funerals, Designers’ Renaissance, and Maffick

Sometimes, it’s good to have conversations that are so random and diverse and that’s what this episode of A Bit of Culture is all about. Dhanya Nair and Marion D’Cruz join our culture vulture Kam Raslan on the episode to unpack three distinctive topics -  the concept of living funerals and whether that’s a cool thing that we should consider before we say goodbye to our loved ones, the continuous growth of Malaysian designers and brands and the unique approach that they take to showcase our identities, and maffick, or mass hysteria, and how they come to be. Tune in to hear how they expertly navigate these topics!
