Trigger warning: This episode mentions self-harm and suicide which may be distressing for some.

Comedian and YouTube royalty Hirzi Zulkiflie has plenty to get off his smooth chest and we are here for it! The multiple traumas of dating as a brown gay man in Singapore? Check. Queer spaces that are too catty for his liking? Double check. Even the rainbow pride flag and Beyoncé are not spared in this tell-all slash sponty therapy session. We find out why Hirzi has blocked over 1,400 guys on social media, and why he may actually forgive Nicki Minaj someday. Our convo is mostly banter and laughter until we take it back to 2015, when Hirzi and his partner in "crime" Munah were the first Malay-Muslim ambassadors for Pink Dot. What started as a proud moment soon spiralled into one of the darkest periods of his life - one that, despite all his smiles and brave front, still brings him to tears.

Are you ready to confess? 'Cause we have something we wanna talk about! Singapore's 1st clinical sexologist, Dr Martha Tara Lee, joins us for an honest discussion on love, lust and all things coitus. We ask Martha all the burning questions we have, including: Can pornography be educational or destructive? Is no sex in a relationship a red flag? Should d*ck cheese and unwashed genitals be the ultimate dealbreaker? Also, how is Martha's sex life as a sexologist? As with many of our episodes, we find ourselves in therapy mode, unpacking our most traumatic sexcapades! Like why Josh developed a fear of sex. And why Sam Jo doesn't always enjoy choking.

Confessions Of A Sexologist | with Dr Martha Lee

You wanted more in 2026 so here we go! Would we date each other? What's the worst gay dating app? Why does military wear turn us on so much?

The conversation turns tender as we wonder: Is being gay more a blessing or a curse? Surely queer pop culture and the unapologetic appreciation of penis are reasons enough to celebrate! Or is being loud and proud a privilege that not everyone can afford?

This episode was recorded before noon in broad daylight. Tune in as we veer off on various tangents and demonstrate why we are not morning people.

It's been 5 years since our first episode together! The Power of 3 is back in the studio as we summon OG #SGBoy Kennede Sng to celebrate our journey thus far. Kennede is no longer a twink, Josh is now a bottom (?) and Sam Jo reveals a secret, vodka-laced episode that has not (yet) seen the light of day. Are we the drama? Yes! Do we still struggle with demons like alcohol and nicotine addiction? Very much so. But we also know that these imperfections have been, for better or for worse, so instrumental to our growth. Growth that you, our dear listeners, have witnessed and helped us with. Join us on this trip down memory lane as we also recount our favourite moments from the past 5 years.

P.S. All of our episodes past and present are now available on YouTube! Stay tuned for some bonus, video-exclusive snippets coming soon…

Bottoms Up! 

Elphaba and Glinda have flown in early for a special Halloween episode with The SG Boys! Meet the House of Haute Mess, the dynamic duo who are Singapore's answer to Heidi Klum every All Hallows' Eve. Not only do they adore Halloween, Sissy and Sassy Sucktits are also a pair of lovebirds who do drag together and who are revered for their immaculate costumes and performances. Named Asia's Most Stylish by Tatler Singapore, the couple tell Josh and Sam Jo where they get their inspiration, how drag has tested - but ultimately strengthened - their relationship and why the spooky season means so much to them. Also in this episode: Josh has fractured his foot! We share our favourite scary movies, a gospel song that'll move you, never-before-seen footage of a pandemic lip-sync (special shoutout to Baby Boy)...and which basic Halloween costumes we do NOT want to see again.

This episode is dedicated to Sam Jo's Halloween partner in crime, Sue-Ann, as well as every other person - queer or not - who has felt less afraid to express themselves on October 31.

Certified quality! As Sam Jo catches his breath from the madness of Mayhem month, Joshua catches up with three of the four masterminds behind Baby Boy, Singapore’s iconique queer RnB and Hip-hop party: Nightlife maestro and former Lady Gaga stylist Bobby Luo, wacky and waacking fashionista Nathanael Ng, as well as PR maven-cum-numbers gal Stefan Kwang. The trio look back on eight glorious years of Baby Boy, from the nascent days of Butter Factory and Overeasy, to how the monthly shindig eventually cemented itself as a quintessential safe haven for LGBTQ revellers of all shapes and shades.

Rachael’s Getting Married! Our girl finally announces her engagement to the love of her life who almost dated Josh?

👰🏻‍♀️Rachael reckons with her sense of self: Wife, Partner, Plus-one. We all love a wedding but society has fewer scripts for those who don’t want to vanish inside one.

💃🏻And Sam Jo has found peace in hosting and performing at weddings that aren’t his own… while sharing a newfound appreciation for gogo boys that’s beyond skin deep.
