Guest: BihZhu

I brought in a special pearl this week. She is an up and coming singer from Penang. I am lucky enough to have her with me in the studio. She talked about her music background from way back in high school. Her participation in the Share the Love project. Her upcoming solo album. Her CDs will be sold at her uncle's coffee shop.

Support your fellow Penangite talent, like her Facebook: Bihzhu Music page and follow Bihzhu on Twitter.

See BihZhu live, performing at the Penang Jazz Festival in December this year.

We discussed the Mooncake Festival. Again, we get a good representation from the younger and older generations. Of course, we talked about food, activities, and struggled to recall the mythological characters.

We discussed medicines. Some we take to maintain health, some we take to control sickness. Different generations may have been exposed to different brands of medications. Remember the old Siam-a Ioh Hun (Siamese Medicinal Powder)? Share yours.

We discussed Hari Raya from a non-Muslim point of view, and mostly, as Chinese Penangites, it's mostly about food. Enjoy! And if we have any Muslim PGHK listeners, have a blessed Raya.

This is a recording from 2006 when my brother's friends came to the USA for a visit. I have been keeping this for emergency situation, and finally it came to the rescue.

Enjoy our candid conversation in an American restaurant. This made me laugh, and I hope it will make you laugh as well.

Don't forget, since I have deleted all the previous recordings, there will be an emergency recording this Saturday August 27 at 9PM. Topics will be posted soon.

The show started a little rough. No one showed up for the ghost month recording because many people went out to pay respect to the ghosts. But I managed to tipu a bunch of new listeners to come chat with me. And many of them didn't go out and pai kui. So glad the old birds and new birds can make this show fun!

We talk about phobias. What scares you irrationally? There are things that we are afraid of that is totally irrational, our guests shared theirs, and I shared mine. I'm sure you will find some of those fears that you can relate to.
