Why Do We Like To Talk About Food All The Time?

Why Do We Like To Talk About Food All The Time?

Na’a Murad and Michael Gong join Kam on the show to talk about all things culture. Michael gets the ball rolling with a thought experiment - how can we write literary classics with a Malaysian flavour? This gets the team on a whimsical and thoughtful tangent. Kam then talks about 15 Minutes Cities and how KL has missed the opportunity to design itself to be this way in the 90s. Later in the second part, Na’a explores the question that is pretty relevant to all of us - why do we like to talk about food all the time?
