A Bit Of Culture

Do You Read The Instructions?

Another week, another episode of A Bit of Culture featuring our bubbly, knowledgeable host Kam Raslan, regular guest Dhanya Nair, and debutant Steve Yong, a content creator. Dhanya starts the ball rolling by talking about the return of old TV shows, either in the form of a reboot/remake, or a continuation from where they left off. She's not sure how to feel about them, with the rest chiming in with their thoughts. Then, it's Kam's turn to discuss whether people should learn the old tech of their field before adopting the current tech. In the second part of the show, Steve talks about the thriving online communities that emerge from various online video games, drawing from his own personal experiences of playing the MMORPG MapleStory for years.

How Would You Reboot James Bond?

They used to be the butt of jokes back in the 80s and in the 90s, especially in schools, but now they rule the world — the "nerds" are finally cool, according to our guest Michael Gong.

But before we get to that, Kam ponders Nostradamus and whether people are still paying attention to his predictions now, compared to before.
