Dreams: The Post-Work Future, Careers, and Aspirations beyond COVID

What a year 2020 was. As COVID-19 ravaged the physical and mental spaces of our already fragile world, we attempted to stop and think about key questions that existed before the pandemic, that were perhaps modulated by COVID-19, and that would continue to exist beyond the pandemic. In one of our best received live episodes centered in the vortex of the pandemic, we looked at the theme of "Dreams" from multiple angles: career aspirations, coronavirus challenges, and meaning-making.  Leoson Hoay and Donavan Cheah riff on wide variety of topics including being a truck driver, the widely debated "Essential vs Non-Essential Jobs" survey and infographic published in The Straits Times, the difficulties of being an artist, and the value of food.  Link to The Straits Times infographic: https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/how-the-survey-was-conducted  This episode originally aired live on 20th March 2021.
