A Bit of Culture is back with host Kam Raslan, accompanied by Vernon Adrian Emuang and Sheryll Paul, to talk about reading, syncretism, and comfort culture. Kam starts the show by reflecting on his reading habits and learning about how his guests read. Then, Vernon talks about syncretism, inspired by the Oxford English Dictionary's (OED) recent decision to add a few Malaysian words to its lexicon. In the second part of the show, Sheryll talks about returning to shows that bring her comfort every now and then. Three different topics that will tickle your curiosity from different angles.

Finding Comfort in Culture

A Bit of Culture returns from the Raya break with three topics that are unique in their own ways. Kam gets the ball rolling with a conversation on dying art forms, inspired by Timothée Chalamet's recent comment on opera and ballet. Then, it's Zan's turn to talk about critical thinking (or the lack thereof) among students in higher education these days, with Marion chiming in with her experiences. In the second part of the show, Marion reflects on the deaths of those around her and what those experiences have taught her. Three different topics that are sure to get your mind racing.

From Dying Arts to Dying Days: Culture, Education, and Loss

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.
