🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s Singapore Home Brew Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen looks at how teenagers are trying to solve problems that adults have struggled with for decades. 

In the studio Carmen Pang, Executive Director, Jane Goodall Institute of Singapore, Connor Akers, Teacher at XCL World Academy, and Ogi Nedeljkovic Student, XCL World Academy to discuss the upcoming Jane Goodall Institute Singapore's annual Youth Summit. The event celebrates youth-led projects that positively impact Animals, People, and the Environment through the global Roots & Shoots programme.

From conservation and biodiversity projects to community engagement initiatives, these young leaders are tackling real-world issues with creativity, purpose, and determination. Along the way, they're supported by scientists, educators, conservationists, and industry experts who help transform ideas into measurable impact.

We'll discuss why empowering young people matters and what Singapore's next generation is teaching the rest of us about leadership, sustainability, and taking action before someone else does

Saturday Mornings: The Jane Goodall Effect - How Students in Singapore Are Changing the World

🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s Leaders in Action Conversation Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen  welcomes Chris "Jordy" Jordan, Regional Vice President and Country Manager for Singapore and ASEAN at monday.com, to look at one of the biggest challenges facing the digital economy: the growing gap between AI leaders and AI laggards.

For many, AI remains more buzzword than business transformation.

While large enterprises are racing ahead, many smaller businesses remain stuck on the side lines: only a small percentage of organisations have successfully integrated AI into their core operations. 

We discuss what's really stopping companies from adopting AI, how SMEs can compete without enterprise-sized budgets, and why workforce readiness may be a bigger challenge than the technology itself.

Most importantly, we'll ask what "democratising AI" actually means. If artificial intelligence becomes a productivity superpower, how do we ensure everyone benefits, not just the biggest players? The future of work may depend on the answer.

Saturday  Mornings: The AI Divide - Who's Winning and Who's Getting Left Behind?

🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s The Wide Angle Conversation Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen  welcomes the Mexican Ambassador to Singapore Agustín García-López Loaeza,Mexican artist R3DO (Alan Rodríguez), and Lynn Zeng from Bankaool Mexico to explore one of Mexico's most meaningful cultural traditions: Día de Muertos, or Day of the Dead.

At the Singapore Art Museum, three contemporary Mexican artists are bringing this centuries-old tradition to life through powerful murals, immersive installations, and traditional altars that honor loved ones who have passed on. The exhibition, Where We Are Remembered, We Return, blends contemporary art with cultural heritage in a way that feels both deeply personal and universally human.

We'll discuss why the Day of the Dead is often misunderstood outside Mexico, how art bridges cultures across continents, and why memory remains one of humanity's most powerful connections.

It's a conversation about family, identity, culture, and the enduring power of stories to keep people alive long after they're gone.

🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s International News Review, Steve Okun  joins Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen as America heads into a pivotal midterm election, the stakes stretch far beyond Washington. What's really on the line for the United States and the world as voters prepare to shape the balance of power in Congress?

Closer to home, we examine rising tensions between Singapore and Indonesia. From subsea internet cables and LNG supplies to the ever-sensitive issue of transboundary haze, are we seeing a temporary diplomatic disagreement or the emergence of a more assertive Indonesia willing to play hardball with its neighbors?

Then there's football superstar Kylian Mbappé finding himself on the wrong side of China's powerful consumer market. What happens when global celebrities collide with national sentiment, and why are brands reacting so quickly?

And finally, the cautionary tale of retirees who sold everything to live permanently aboard a luxury cruise ship, only to find themselves stranded in Cambodia. A dream retirement or a floating financial nightmare?
