Love lockdown feat. Yumika Hoskin

There's a lot to unpack in this episode. Ghosts, aliens, and is anyone else getting freaky dreams?! All that aside, we're talking to the beautiful Yumika Hoskin – a PRO at managing a long-distance relationship in lockdown with a guy who lives on the other side of the world.

But where are you really from? Feat. Sarah Benjamin

It's the question people have asked us our entire lives. And to be honest, we still haven't figured out the answer. Sarah Benjamin, Singapore's favourite chef and food presenter shares her personal experiences growing up mixed-race, and the unique struggle of figuring out where she fit in. Enter existential crisis here: where does my accent come from? Why do I feel foreign at home? Am I Asian enough? European enough? What am I? And my God, why don't westerners share food?!

Can't we just go back to the early 2000's?

This one's for the 90's kids! We're marching down memory lane in this solo episode and revisiting some pre-teen icons from back in our golden days. We're talking Hilary Duff (THRIVING), Avril Lavigne (illuminati clone?), Amanda Bynes (is she actually pregnant?), Lindsay Lohan (remember her music career?). Then... there are the heartthrobs. Teddy Geiger, Aaron Carter, Robert Pattinson to name but a few. We cover it all. Where are they now? Who's still cute? And (for some), how did it go so wrong?...

There's summit about her. Feat. Sofia Jin

This episode's a doozy. Our guest this week is Sofia Jin, an outdoor adventurer extraordinaire who's summited some of the world's highest mountain peaks. And guys... she's only 22. We chat to her about embracing adventure as an attitude, conquering your fears, the gender stereotypes we're STILL battling in 2020, and how Asian mothers somehow always know what to say to keep your ego in check.

Maybe it's her, maybe it's quarantine

You asked, we answered. It's another solo episode where we tell you everything you wanted to know about us! We broke down what helped us become the confident kweens we are, because we didn't just wake up like this. Plus we talk bullying (people still do that?), first dates (should the dude pay?), and poetic stalkers (but was he hot?).

What keeps you up at night?

Guys. This week's been stressful. And we could all do with some comic relief... even if it's at our own expense. It's just the two of us this week and we're spilling the deets on some of our most embarrassing stories. The awkward moments that haunt us to this day. Tuxedo vests. Gym pick-up lines. Pervy frogs. And oh God, there's so much more. We lay it all bare just to make you smile, dear listener, because that's just how much we care.
