Firstly we salute all those who recently faced the SEA exam. Congratulations to all the children, parents and teachers!

Do you ever remember the knot in your stomach while waiting for your results or your children’s results? The anticipation, the hope, the fear... it’s a cocktail of emotions we all have tasted. This episode is a roller coaster ride, touching upon the immense pressure and emotions surrounding the SEA exam results. We share heartfelt stories of reactions, from exultation to disappointment, even recollections of a father whose son has to retake the exam. We discuss the importance of learning life lessons early on, with inspiring stories from Kevin Hart, Tiffany Haddish, and Viola Davis, who all faced hardships but remained resilient. We'll tackle the concept of failure. It's a tough word that carries heavy connotations, but we'll redefine it together. 

We revisit Kevon’s funeral and discuss examine the importance of life planning - how being prepared for the unexpected, even when it comes to something as morbid as funeral costs, can alleviate stress for loved ones left behind.

Let’s unravel the hair controversy that unfolded at Trinity College. We unpack Nyan Gadsby Dolly's responcse as it's a timely topic that requires open dialogue and consultation as we strive to understand the dynamics of school policies, societal norms, and personal expression. Rules and regulations, while necessary, can sometimes turn into heated debates. Remember the high school student whose hairstyle was deemed inappropriate? We explore the complexities of enforcing such contentious rules and the importance of imparting respect for diverse views. 

Finally, we veer our conversation towards the ongoing controversy in Trinidad's soccer scene. Should Angus Eve continue being the head coach of Trinidad and Tobago Football? Is it the right time for the return of Stephen Hart? What implications could his dismissal have on the team? The episode wraps up with a reflective note on the heavy cost of progress on our environment and society. 

So, buckle up and join us on this enlightening and engrossing journey. This episode promises to stir up emotions, ignite discussions, and offer advice on handling life's various curveballs.
