Meaning is Overrated

Our lovely host Kam Raslan makes a bold claim this week: he thinks that meaning is overrated. That gets both our guests of the week, Sim Wie Boon and Sabrina Yusof chiming in with their own thoughts. Sim also speaks about Tik Tok videos and virality and how these have influenced the music industry. Last but not least, Sabrina opens up as she talks about how the internet is influencing her sense of self.
