The Limits of Nostalgia

Is there a limit to nostalgia? What are the risks of hanging on to nostalgia? This is the topic that A Bit of Culture guest Ong Kar Jin wants to discuss and dissect, reflecting on how we treat some of our monuments and spaces. But before that, the other guest, Marion D’Cruz talks about the benefits of doing a degree in the arts, as a response to a video that went viral recently. Our host, Kam Raslan meanwhile talks about the trickster, and whether these caricatures that we usually see in the works of fiction are beginning to appear in real life. Another episode of A Bit of Culture that you don’t want to miss, with cool recommendations at the end of the show that you definitely want to check out.
