The apologists are back and they’re looking for revenge! Not literally, but in a more dynamic way that somehow marks the delicate intricacies of the global societies and communities at large. Tune in for a clearer picture of this conversation, brought to you by ABOC regular, Ong Kar Jin. But before we get to that, Kam starts off the show by talking about AI-generated images and whether they will be the norm moving forward, as more people opt for them. And in her second appearance on the show, Sheryll Paul speaks about musicals and why they’re not being marketed clearly for the audience.

A Bit Of Culture

The Revenge of the Apologists

A Bit of Culture returns for the new year, raring to go again. We start the first episode of the year with three distinctive topics. Dhanya goes first, talking about the simulation hypothesis and whether it's a theory that the others have entertained as they ponder life. Then it's Kar Jin's turn to talk about performative reading and whether some people are choosing to pretend they're reading to appear smart. In the second part of the show, Kam talks about whether people are going to the cinema as often as they used to. Three different topics with the usual A Bit of Culture flavour.

Is This Real Life, Is This Just A… Simulation?

Is being happy and content the same? This is the question that Dhanya Nair brings to the table as she seeks the perfect balance between the two. Our host Kam Raslan and his partner-in-crime Mikey Gong try to answer that question while juggling their topics. Mikey talks about the depth of children's books and what the panel would like to write if given the chance, while Kam speaks about being on time and its value. Three different topics that somehow meet in the middle to form another exciting episode of A Bit of Culture!

Happy vs Content

Once upon a time, we looked to the West for inspiration on all things - from culture to politics. But things have changed now, as the West is now mired in various problems and no longer the beacon of inspiration that it was. So, what do we make of this? This is the question that returning guest Hafiz Noor Shams poses to his peer, Zan Azlee, and our host, Kam Raslan. But before we get to that, Zan talks about his EPF money and how he does not want the withdrawal age to be extended so that he can withdraw it soon when the time comes. Kam speaks about James Brooke, the White Rajah of Sarawak who ruled the state in the past. Three vastly different topics on another episode of A Bit of Culture!
