EP 315: Is Singapore's Biryani Standard Getting Worse? 02.08.2026 37minSharif brought biryani to the studio. Ten minutes later we were arguing about whether Singapore can still cook it properly.We ranked our top 3 in each category — nasi biryani (the local Malay-style version), dum biryani, and South Indian. Then we got into why standards here are slipping, whether home-based cooking is the real future of F&B, and what happens to food businesses when the new Singapore–JB rail link opens. Sit back, relax and probably best to have a biryani while you watch this week's debate! -
EP 314: Our Weirdest Indian Food Combos 26.07.2026 38minOne of us was disgusted. The other wasn't impressed. Nobody agreed.This week Yuva and Bharath get into Indian food combinations, the pairings we swear by and the ones that make people stare. Veg, non-veg, and the hybrid combos that shouldn't work but somehow do. Some of these genuinely put Yuva off his food. Others were too plain to win Bharath over. Before that, we pick up where we left off on Tekka. For those outside Singapore: The food quality is one thing. But the vibe is the real loss, and honestly it's been gone since around 2016. Tell us in the comments whose side you're on and if you feel the same about Tekka.

EP 313: Is Tekka Losing Its Soul? 19.07.2026 45minWe went to Tekka for a meal and walked out disappointed. And it got us asking a bigger question.Tekka, the heart of Singapore's Little India, where generations of Indian Singaporeans have eaten and grown up is changing. New kinds of food moving in, the old feel slipping away. Jawhar and Bharath talk about what's gained and what's lost. Then it gets personal: when a relative or friend quietly distances themselves, and you bump into them outside — what do you do? Plus World Cup talk: how France cooked themselves, Spain or Argentina for the trophy, and why Brazil isn't Brazil anymore.

EP 312: Haunted Roads of Singapore & Malaysia + Obsession Movie 12.07.2026 37minSome roads in Singapore and Malaysia, people simply refuse to drive at night. This week we found out why. It's our spookiest episode yet. Jawhar and Yuva get into the stories behind Karak Highway and Devil's Bend, the legends, the sightings, and the ones that are a little too consistent to laugh off. Before that, they go in on Obsession, the horror film everyone's talking about, and end up in a proper debate: when a wish turns your crush into a monster, who's the real victim, Bear or Nikki? Listen with the lights on. Or don't. Your call 👀

EP 311: Pritam Singh, the WP and a World Cup We Can't Get Into 05.07.2026 52minPritam Singh is no longer Leader of the Opposition. But he's still leading the Workers' Party. Should he be?That's the question Singapore has been arguing about, so this week we sat with it properly. We're not here to tell you what to think. We lay out the arguments on both sides, talk through what we understand and what we don't, and share where we honestly land. Then we switch gears completely: the World Cup is on, and somehow we can't get into it. We talk about why, what's wrong with the commentary, and who we think wins it anyway.This one's a sensitive topic and we've done our best to be fair to all sides. Hear us out in full before you judge us in the comments 😅

EP 310: Unhinged Reddit Stories Why Do People Stay in Abusive Relationships 21.06.2026 26min⚠️ Content note: this episode includes a frank discussion of abusive relationships and may be heavy for some listeners. Please take care.Why does someone stay in an abusive relationship? And why does the person hurting them so often walk away fine?It started with Jawhar and Bharath reading unhinged Reddit stories and it turned into one of the most honest conversations we've had. We talk about abusive relationships, the parts we can't make sense of, and the questions that don't have easy answers. It gets heavy in places and lighter in others. There's a bit on Father's Day, and a tangent about what Reddit would sound like if it could talk. But mostly it's two friends sitting with something difficult and trying to understand it.
