Glenn van Zutphen on Saturday Mornings with Neil Humphreys (9am - 12pm)

Weekends: International News Review the battle between Singapore and Hong Kong

Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys step into a world where insects tower over us. Joining us in the studio are Honor Harger, Vice President of the ArtScience Museum, and Foo Maosheng, Curator of the Cryogenic Collection and Insecta Senior Scientific Officer at the Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum. They take us inside Insects: "Microsculptures Magnified", ArtScience Museum’s first major exhibition of the year and the Southeast Asian debut of award‑winning photographer Levon Biss. Thirty seven magnification portraits created in collaboration with the American Museum of Natural History, the exhibition transform beetles, flies, wasps, and other tiny creatures into monumental artworks up to seven feet tall. Colours, textures, and anatomical structures invisible to the naked eye are revealed in astonishing detail.

Beyond the art, the exhibition invites visitors to dig deeper into the natural world through interactive displays, real specimens, and behind‑the‑scenes insights into Biss’ meticulous photographic process. Maosheng shares how Singapore’s own insect biodiversity—often misunderstood or dismissed as “pests”—plays essential roles in our ecosystems, and how public education can help shift perceptions and even overcome fears.

Saturday Mornings: Bigger Than Bugs: ArtScience Museum’s Giant Insects & the Science Behind Their Secret Worlds

This week on MoneyFM 89.3’s Saturday Sit‑Down, Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys welcome Tracie Pang, co‑founder of Pangdemonium and director of their latest production, "Force Majeure", opening at the Victoria Theatre from 6–15 March. In this world‑premiere adaptation by award‑winning playwright Stephanie Street, Force Majeure reimagines Chekhov’s Three Sisters for our time. The play follows three sisters and their brother—each yearning for a different life, each wrestling with love, loss, longing, and the quiet heartbreak of dreams deferred. Friends, lovers, and strangers drift in and out of their world, offering hope, disruption, and the possibility of rediscovering life again… even if it means tearing the family apart. With its blend of beauty, humour, and emotional truth, the production speaks to anyone who has ever felt stuck between who they are and who they hope to become. 

This premiere marks Pangdemonium’s final year. Tracie reflects on why the company is choosing to close this chapter after 14 years of bold, socially resonant theatre and what it means to end on their own terms.

On MoneyFM 89.3’s International News Review, Steve Okun joins Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys to unpack global developments that reveal how fast the political and economic landscape is shifting. We begin with the Prince Andrew–Epstein shockwave throughout the UK, US and beyond. Steve looks at the political, legal and diplomatic implications of this unprecedented moment, and what it says about accountability among the rich and powerful. We also examine President Trump’s newly launched “Board of Peace”, a high‑profile initiative with many unanswered questions. Steve breaks down what the board is designed to do—and what it may actually achieve. Finally, we reflect on the legacies of Robert Duvall, the Hollywood icon behind The Godfather and Apocalypse Now, and Reverend Jesse Jackson, a civil rights giant whose influence shaped generations.
