April 03, 2024No Love For Love RayaEntrepreneur and influencer Dato Aliff Shukri Kamarzaman is under fire for posting a teaser clip of his latest Aidilfitri song, Love Raya; which many have deemed inappropriate. The video depicted him with 8 male dancers in costumes, gyrating and preening at the camera. Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil has requested MCMC to take action, and called for content creators to create "appropriate content for all ages." We get into the question of accountability when it comes to consuming online content, and whether the onus is on the creator, the government or the self.

March 22, 2024Would You Take The Money And Run?A pink-and-white luggage bag filled with over RM500,000 in cash was found by a security guard at a parking lot in Damansara Mall.

We opened it up to listeners, and unsurprisingly got very interesting answers, before our guest, Dr Anasuya Jegathevi Jegathesan joined us to further unpack this ethical and moral quandary.Image Credits: BERNAMASee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information....more1h 2minPlay
