On The Agenda, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Isaac Tng, Founder of SixMoreDays to find out if millennials are trying too hard to “stay relevant”.

Once known as the trendsetters, millennials are increasingly being called out for doing things to keep up with the times. In Singapore, where generational expectations and career pressures run high, this tension feels especially familiar. 

So, is the idea that millennials are “out of touch” actually fair? Or is it just another cycle of generational rivalry playing out online?

Fresh graduates may be taking a little longer to land that first full-time job, but according to Manpower Minister Tan See Leng, that doesn’t necessarily mean the job market is weakening.

In Parliament, he pointed out that while recent figures show softer fresh graduate employment outcomes, those numbers are coming off an unusually strong post-Covid hiring surge, when companies were aggressively rehiring to catch up on demand.

So is this just a temporary adjustment, or a structural shift in how young people enter the workforce?

On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Professor Lawrence Loh, Department of Strategy and Policy, National University of Singapore, to find out more.

On What's Trending, Hongbin Jeong, Nadiah Koh and Nazirul Asrar dive into a Michael Jackson tribute flash mob that has since gone viral this week.

From moonwalks to high kicks, what makes it viral is not the perfectly synchronised movements and routines of the legendary pop star. Instead, the group of dancers put a unique twist to this tribute by donning their traditional Malay costumes and took a spin.

Grab’s new cross-border taxi booking feature now allows users in Singapore to book rides straight to Johor and surrounding areas via the app, with trips requiring at least 12 hours’ advance booking.

While the move promises greater convenience and wider access to destinations like Johor Bahru, Iskandar Puteri, Forest City, Kulai and Senai, fares are dynamic and can even end up higher than traditional street-hail options.

With cashless payments, fluctuating pricing and new pickup rules on both sides of the border, does this make cross-border travel truly easier or just more complicated? 

On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Terence Fan, Assistant Professor Strategic Management & Entrepreneurship, Singapore Management University, to find out more.

On The Agenda, Hongbin Jeong and  Chris J. “Mohawk” Reed, the founder of Black Marketing, unpacka familiar but increasingly heated narrative: every generation thinks the next one just isn’t built for the world of work.

That perception is starting to show up in hiring decisions too, with some surveys suggesting fewer than 1 in 10 employers feel Gen Z are fully prepared for work, and nearly half saying they aren’t ready at all.

So what’s really going on here? Are Gen Z genuinely unprepared, or is the modern workplace failing to keep up with them?

On What’s Trending, Hongbin Jeong, Nadiah Koh and Nazirul Asrar dive into Seoul’s hilariously relatable Power Nap Contest, where exhausted contestants in royal robes and koala onesies compete to become the ultimate public sleeper by napping the hardest under official heart-rate monitoring.

But beneath the absurdity of competitive sleeping lies a deeper conversation about burnout, hustle culture and why one of the world’s most sleep-deprived societies is turning rest into a spectator sport. From South Korea’s relentless work culture to China’s “lying flat” movement, the trio unpack whether sleep has become a luxury in modern life.

At this year’s May Day Rally 2026, the Prime Minister didn’t just sound the alarm on global uncertainty and AI disruption, he also made a bold promise: that even if jobs are lost, workers will still be protected.

But in a world where change is accelerating, how realistic is that? And what will it actually take to deliver on that promise?
