  • (Untitled) #60 feat. The Black Album, by Metallica

    25 years ago, metal gods Metallica released one of the biggest-selling albums of all time. The Black Album produced huge hits like 'Enter Sandman', 'Nothing Else Matters' and 'Wherever I May Roam', and was considered a major turning point for the band because it indicated that they were moving from pure thrash metal to wanting to reach a more mainstream audience - and that move paid off. Join Ezra and Uma in reliving that time in 1991 when Metallica hit all the right notes.

  • Living a Good Life in a Bad World

    We’re coming up towards the end of 2016 and the world seems like it’s in a bad place. Extreme elements of society sound more vocal than ever before. The Brexit and Donald Trump have shocked the Western world. And over here, in Southeast Asia, we seem to struggle with a pervasive lawlessness at every level of society. Today, on The Evening Edition, Uma speaks to Professor AC Grayling - one of our greatest living philosophers - about that perennial question of how to live a good life in a bad world.

  • Jonathan Goon

    Founder and owner of prop-making company, Helios E, he started off his career in propmaking in 2005, and he has never looked back since. This man right here has devoted himself to prop-making, much so that he was asked to help Daft Punk out during his time in Australia! We sit the self-acclaimed Malaysia's No.1 Ghostbusters fan to tell his story.

  • Being a Woman in Science

    Off the top of your head, name some women scientists. Very likely, your answer would only be Marie Curie. We know Einstein, we know Tesla, and even the more contemporary ones like Michio Kaku and Neil deGrasse Tyson...all male scientists. Where are women's contributions in science and why are women scientists so unheard of? We get answers to those exact questions from theoretical physicist Shohini Ghose. She also gives us a 101 on what quantum physics is and about her experience of being a minority in the world of science.

    Shohini Ghose is also the director of Laurier's Centre for Women in Science.

The British comedian has been travelling about Asia, and to the hospital, but what matters is he's here to sit down, and he's here to talk about the upcoming United Nations of Comedy, taking place for the second time, but in a different venue.

  • Do We Own What We Buy?

    You're a big fan of Harry Potter. You walk into a bookstore and you buy a book and an e-book. You may think you own both copies but do you really? Think about it, can you lend, resell, or leave that e-book in your will? We speak to Aaron Perzanowski about the changing idea of ownership. He is the author of The End of Ownership: Personal Property in the Digital Economy.
