  • Episode 5: Cultural Appropriation

    10/04/2019 Duration: 10min

    Cultural appropriation if often painted as this sensitive, "SJW" agenda that shouldn't be heeded. However, its implications are often more far-reaching than we'd imagine. But what exactly is it, though? I explore this question a little more on this episode of In 3, 2, 1!

    05/04/2019 Duration: 14min

    Would it be possible to bring dinosaurs back from the dead? Is our inability to do so a limitation of current technology, or is it the result of something inevitable? I take a look at the possible methods one would use to revive an extinct animal, as well as look into the phenomenon of genetic engineering, and its implications!

    Hookup culture seems to be the quintessential millennial trait. But are we really having more sex than ever, though? What about having friends with benefits? Is it all smooth sailing, or do things often get extremely complicated? In the third episode of In 3, 2, 1, I take a break from discussing serious issues, and take a look into the world of casual dating.

    29/03/2019 Duration: 14min

    The Wang Kelian tragedy of 2015 was an incident that sent shockwaves throughout Malaysia. The illusion that the country was a safe haven was shattered, and many Malaysians were left reeling with the realisation that their country was a hub for a transnational human trafficking syndicate. But just how bad was the Wang Kelian incident? How could it have happened right under the noses of our authorities? In the second episode of In 3, 2, 1, I take a look at the facts and figures about human trafficking.

    Human zoos may seem like a thing of the past, but the roots of their conception still affect people all over the world. Have we truly escaped the bane also known as ethnological exhibitions? Why did such a thing even exist in the first place? I take a look into some of the most famous and shocking cases of human exhibits.
