There’s a bit of variety in this week’s episode of A Bit of Culture as host Kam Raslan, and his guests, Na’a Murad and Zan Azlee ponder about science fiction, protest culture and Malaysian masculinity. The show starts with Kam reflecting on elements of reality in science fiction and how that turns him off. Na’a follows that up by questioning whether Malaysia has a protest culture, and if she does, how come it’s not as pronounced as it was last time. Zan ends the show with a very curious and intriguing observation of Malaysian masculinity. Tune in to find out how they navigate these topics!
