What's Trending: The ‘Singapore Pokedex’ that could save you from a sting and why everyone suddenly wants to do HYROX
from Money Matters with Hongbin Jeong and Chua Tian Tian · host MONEY FM 89.3
What would you do if you spotted a strange, electric-blue creature on a beach in Singapore and had no idea if it was harmless… or venomous? That moment of curiosity (and mild panic) is exactly what inspired a new project people are calling a 'Singapore Pokedex', a fast, visual wildlife guide designed to help everyday people identify real animals in real time. On What's Trending, Debbie Yong and Nadiah Koh explore how this simple idea is trying to close that gap — turning hikes into discovery, and making biodiversity accessible, visual and actually useful. Then, we shift gears from nature to one of the fastest-growing fitness phenomena in the world: HYROX. What looks like a brutal race of running and workouts is actually something much bigger — a global business pulling in millions, attracting tens of thousands of competitors, and turning fitness into a full-blown ecosystem. From entry fees to sponsorships, gyms to tourism, HYROX is redefining how people train, travel and spend. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
