We've all been home a lot more over the pandemic, and that means more meals at home! So to get you cooking a little more (even if you've never done so), our host Jun is dishing up some simple and fun recipes to try. This week, he's making chilli oil. Chilli oil is a staple in so many households, but rather than using store-bought chilli oil, why not make your own, where you can get it to taste and smell exactly how you like it! Join us through this ASMR journey, and let Jun know on Instagram (@jun.and.tonic) if you made it!

This week, we pay a short tribute to the beloved Queen of the Nürburgring, Sabine Schmitz, discuss Volvo's fantastic e-Waste collection and recycling initiative with local startup ERTH, and mull over Suzuki's imminent return in Malaysia. In Part 2, we take a peek at the new BMW i4 and the upcoming 'Olivine Green' Peugeot 308, before reviewing a 'District Green' 2021 Audi A5 Sportback Quattro TFSI. With a steep pricetag, the Audi A5's competition - the Mercedes-AMG C43 and BMW M340i is quite literally a class above, but is there a case for buying this less-powerful Audi over the others? Daniel Fernandez seems to think so.

The formulation of the policy is said to be a manifestation of the country’s commitment toward implementing sustainable forest management. Is this policy binding in any way, or more aspirational in nature? We explore this and more on the show today.
