Is Singapore ready for more open political discourse - or are we still too scared to "cross the line"? We sit down with Associate Professor Walid Abdullah, political scientist, author, and host of the “Teh Tarik with Walid” podcast. We cover his latest book on Palestine, the rise of podcasting in Singapore’s political scene, and why Prof Walid thinks every politician should want to be Prime Minister. Plus, we get candid about cancel culture and whether he’ll run in GE2030.
