#569 ft. Rishi Budhrani - MRT Disruption: Whose Fault? & How to Scam a Scammer

Rishi steps up to the plate of guest host, bringing the Sindhi presence back onto the podcast! This week, we talk about the elephant in the room, the MRT East-West line disruption. As Singapore reels from the massive disruption, we sift through the chatter online and try to figure out: who’s to blame? Also, strangely enough, Rishi himself got in the news this week, where he trolled a scam caller from Pakistan. We break down the phone call and the elaborate ruses that scammers are coming up with these days.
