#542 - Yah Lah BUT Mentioned in Parliament & Who Are “Friends of the PAP”?

We usually talk about the news, but did not expect to BE the news, which is what happened this week! Our Yah Lah BUT episode with Leong Mun Wai was referenced during this week’s parliamentary sitting by the Speaker of Parliament, Seah Kian Peng. What exactly was Mr Leong’s “act of contempt” on our podcast, and what did we think of the entire fiasco? Elsewhere, the “Friends of the PAP” group of influencers who were unveiled at a PAP event have come under scrutiny. Is there anything inherently wrong with being a buddy to politicians?(00:00) Tell You First(02:27) Intro(05:48) Yah Lah BUT Mentioned in Parliament(40:02) Who Are “Friends of the PAP”?(57:03) One Shiok Comment(59:20) One Shiok ThingOur New Podcast, TELL YOU FIRSTCheck out our new edutainment podcast that dives into a fascinating array of topics you never knew you needed to know! 30 episodes that will take you into 2025, plus Ep 1 also features 987 DJ Joakim Gomez!Listen on melistenListen on SpotifyListen on AppleFind us here!Our websiteYLB SubredditYLB Telegram ChannelYLB TikTokYLB IGYLB YouTubeFolkloryIf you’re looking for a meaningful gift, we’d love to help you create a personal podcast for a loved one.
