The A Bit of Culture crew gathers again for one last time this year, with another set of topics that will get your brain buzzing! Kam gets the ball rolling by asking his guests, Azmyl Yunor and Julian Yap whether they’re good at managing crises. It’s a moment of reflection for the crew, and one that they take full advantage of. Then, it’s Julian’s turn to talk about Algospeak, and how that has the potential to change the way we speak and use certain words in real life to mimic how we have to adapt online. In the second part of the show, Azmyl Yunor talks about musical biopics, in conjunction with the recently released musical biopic on Bob Dylan. Another exciting episode of A Bit of Culture that you don’t want to miss as we say goodbye to 2024 and welcome 2025!
