Singapore’s Electoral Boundaries Review Committee has released its long-awaited report, remaking constituencies ahead of the imminent GE2025. With more MPs, redrawn boundaries, and reconstituted double-barrel GRCs, are these justified adjustments? Or are online commentators’ accusations of gerrymandering valid? Meanwhile, Lady Gaga has chosen Singapore as her only Asia tour stop - sparking excitement and, of course, disappointment from Little Monsters around the region. In Parliament, Minister Edwin Tong clarified that no grants were given to the artist and her team, so why did she skip other Asian countries? Was this purely a business decision, or did Singapore pull some unseen strings? (00:00) Intro(03:24) GE2025 Electoral Boundaries Shake-Up(34:43) Lady Gaga and Singapore Write a Bad Romance(47:22) One Shiok Comment(51:30) One Shiok ThingFolkloryIf you’re looking for a meaningful gift, we’d love to help you create a personal podcast for a loved one.

Last week in Parliament, Minister of Manpower Dr Tan See Leng chided PSP’s Leong Mun Wai with a viral Cantonese movie quote that is dividing public opinion. Was it a power move, or unnecessary condescension on his part? Meanwhile, Workers' Party MP Jamus Lim is pushing for Thaipusam to be reinstated as a public holiday, arguing that Singapore’s public holiday distribution is unequal.

We return with our first YLB Live show of 2025! In this episode, we talk about the government tightening rules on Personal Mobility Aids (PMAs), by introducing speed limits and medical certification requirements. Are these necessary safety measures, or will they unfairly penalize legitimate users? Meanwhile, a Singapore PR is offering a $2,000 “bounty” to anyone who introduces her to a suitor, and if they date for at least six months. Is this a brilliant dating hack or just another sign of our ultra-transactional society? We also had an audience member come on for a fan segment, and many felt like he should have had his own podcast!

The NRIC unmasking saga is far from over - after a thorough investigation, a 36-page report reveals how a “confluence of shortcomings” led to the NRIC kerfuffle under ACRA’s watch. But while no "deliberate wrongdoing" was found, will there be accountability of the key personnel involved?

A heated GST debate erupted this week as Leader of the Opposition Pritam Singh accused the government of “turbocharging inflation” with the timing of the GST hike. Academic Ben Leong pushed back on this “irritating” assertion via a social media post, and Minister Shanmugam even agreed by sharing his post. But who’s actually right? Meanwhile, the great Pickleball noise war rages on in Marine Parade, with frustrated residents forcing changes to court usage hours.

The latest Graduate Employment Survey shows that fewer fresh graduates in Singapore are landing full-time jobs within six months of graduation, despite median starting salaries rising by 4%. Are Singapore degrees losing their value, or are AI and global competition changing the game? Meanwhile, a couple’s dream trip to Venice turned into a nightmare when they were seated next to a dead body for 4 hours on their Qatar Airways flight. How did this happen, and what do airlines actually do when someone dies mid-air?(00:00) Intro(06:06) Fewer Jobs for Fresh Grads in SG(33:35) Flying With a Corpse for 4 Hours(44:10) One Shiok Comment(48:30) One Shiok ThingFind us here!Our Website: https://www.ministryoffunny.comReddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/YahLahBut/Telegram: https://t.me/YahLahButPodcastTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@yahlahbutIG: https://www.instagram.com/yahlahbut/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@yahlahbutFewer Jobs for Fresh Grads in SGFewer graduates found work 6 months after leaving university in 2024, median salary rises 4.2%: SurveyFewer uni graduates in 2024 found full-time work, but they had higher pay: SurveyFlying With a Corpse for 4 HoursDead body placed beside Australian couple on Qatar Airways flightCouple Forced to Sit Next to Corpse on Qatar Airways Flight for HoursOne Shiok CommentComment from mild_demonsComment by captainblackchestOne Shiok ThingThe Shortest NBA Player Is Doing The ImpossibleJESSE EISENBERG wins BEST SCREENPLAY at the 2025 Film Independent Spirit AwardsMics and Headphones from @shureChairs from @ergotunechairEdited and mixed by Haresh Tilani

The Montfort Secondary School bullying incident has shocked Singapore, with a viral video showing students attacking a fellow classmate. Despite the school's claim of "appropriate disciplinary actions", the victim’s mother is speaking out, demanding transparency. Are schools doing enough, or is it time for harsher punishments? Meanwhile, a new task force report suggests grants for coffee shop owners to clean their infamously dirty toilets.

A Total Defence food resilience exercise took a wrong turn when 20 students fell ill after eating ready-to-eat meals catered by SATS, a major food supplier. With 100,000 meals already distributed, should the program be paused completely? Meanwhile, a Nasi Lemak hawker has publicly questioned the requirement for hawkers to be physically present at their stalls everyday, thus putting the National Environment Agency’s tenancy rules under the spotlight. Are NEA’s requirements outdated, or necessary to protect hawker culture?(00:00) Message from our sponsor - Gov.sg(00:53) Intro(06:24) Total Defence Exercise Leads to Food Poisoning (31:03) Pregnant Hawker Forced to Stand(53:30) One Shiok Comment(59:40) One Shiok ThingOur Sponsor:To find out more about Forward SG initiatives, visit the Together, for Better roadshows that are happening around Singapore until June 2025: go.gov.sg/tfbroadshows-ylbFind us here!Our Website: https://www.ministryoffunny.comReddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/YahLahBut/Telegram: https://t.me/YahLahButPodcastTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@yahlahbutIG: https://www.instagram.com/yahlahbut/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@yahlahbutTotal Defence Exercise Leads to Food PoisoningTotal Defence food resilience programme suspended as precautionary measure due to SOTA food poisoning casesSota food poisoning probe: Active ageing centres, schools stop ready-to-eat meal distributionFB Post by SFAPregnant Hawker Forced to Stand Man questions requirement for pregnant wife to physically run Yishun hawker stall, NEA says alternatives declinedNEA says hawkers must operate stalls personally to prevent subletting, after hawker’s viral complaintFB Post by NEAOne Shiok CommentComment by _h_e_r_m_i_t_Comment by TheGracehewOne Shiok ThingCONCLAVE - Official TrailerDARK GOTHIC MAGA: How Tech Billionaires Plan to Destroy AmericaMics and Headphones from @shureChairs from @ergotunechairEdited and mixed by Haresh Tilani

Budget 2025 is here, and PM Lawrence Wong delivered what many are calling an "election budget" - packed with CDC vouchers, SG60 bonuses, and support for families. While no one will say no to budget goodies, are the deeper issues such as Singapore’s cost of living and fertility woes being addressed?

Pritam Singh, Singapore’s Leader of the Opposition, has been convicted of lying to Parliament’s Committee of Privileges, marking a historic first for a political leader. Even with a $14,000 fine, he still remains eligible to contest GE2025, but what does this mean for the Workers' Party? Meanwhile, a Straits Times feature on Singapore’s incels sparks heated debate among online commenters, who took issue with NS grievances being categorised as part of the local incel movement.
