#227 ASKING MY EXES IF THEY'RE PROUD OF ME ft. Kuah Jenhan

What happens when the Red Flags guy, the Sip & Spill/Covid Morning guy, the Vitagen guy, and that viral fat song comedian walk onto a podcast set?We’re unpacking what it really means to go viral — who’s selling out, who’s holding on for dear life, and who’s slowly disappearing into the gaping chasm of irrelevancy.

And is it still worth it when the likes stop coming in?This is one episode you definitely wanna be sat for.Follow Jenhan on Instagram at:https://www.instagram.com/kuahjenhan/ Follow Graeme on Instagram at:https://www.instagram.com/instagraeme_tj/ Check out Like This, Like Dad at:https://ticketmaster.sg/activity/detail/25sg_jenhan CHAPTERS00:20 - Like This, Like Dad02:10 - Fighting for your attention 05:20 - Pretentiously defining social media 09:00 - The woes of being slightly popular 11:00 - The Morning Guy 15:16 - Choose your validation15:55 - Asking our exes to say “I’m proud” 17:39 - Are you actually relevant or just a trend 19:20 - The gaping chasm of irrelevancy 22:30 - Why everyone wants a podcast26:00 - Putting numbers to heart 27:40 - Our fanciest tickleadges 31:00 - Being a flower blooming crack addict35:30 - Making IG pins our personality 38:20 - Dead dad competitions38:55 - There’s a ghost in the audience41:00 - Flaring nostrils at smelly personalities 44:00 - Attention seeking vs. Narcissism 46:20 - The intersection between christian influencers49:00 - The irk of religious influencers 52:40 - Pretending we don’t want attention 55:00 - Motivated by becoming forgotten 57:30 - It’s the climb Graeme hasn’t peaked 1:00:00 - Healthy unrealistic 24/7 spiralling1:06:40 - Staying upping and still coming1:09:18 - Find the circle and fill your hole
