This episode we ask: when is a protest, a protest? A Spanish couple on their honeymoon here are providing a fascinating test case. They held up signs denouncing Singaporean Peter Lim’s ownership of football club Valencia, and were shocked when they were not allowed to leave the country. Even with our stringent rules, this feels like a stretch. Join us as we speculate on where the tipping point is, and why! Separately, Prime Minister Lawrence Wong has been hailed for his humility after he was seen taking a budget airline after a work trip in Laos. But what exactly are the rules surrounding politicians and air travel?(00:00) Folklory(01:15) Intro(08:37) Spanish Couple Detained for Protesting Singaporean Ownership of Valencia FC(34:03) PM Wong Flies Scoot(50:07) One Shiok Comment(53:13) One Shiok ThingOur Folklory Christmas CassetteIf you’re looking for a truly one-of-a-kind Christmas gift, we’ve got the perfect idea - our Folklory cassette!It’s a limited edition bluetooth speaker styled as cassette, that will come preloaded with any Folklories you buy!So order by 31 Oct to guarantee your cassette delivery by 25 Dec!Get yours at Folklory.comOur New Podcast, TELL YOU FIRSTCheck out our new edutainment podcast that dives into a fascinating array of topics you never knew you needed to know!

We’re horrified that a secondary one girl was beaten up by her own schoolmates at a HDB block near their school, resulting in a ruptured eardrum. We discuss with actor and friend of YLB Munah Bagharib what pushes young people to harm others, and why others are comfortable to watch. But it wouldn’t be YLB if we didn’t also speculate on wild ways to reform bullies! In less distressing educational news, SMU’s College of Integrative Studies allows students to design their own majors. Haven’t we heard this before..?

Oh Iswaran, we wish we knew how to quit you. Just when we thought we’d packed the former Transport Minister off to prison and closed that chapter, details of his cell emerge… along with a photo of him in prison uniform!!!??? Okaaay, should we be seeing this? We discuss the treatment he will get in Changi Prison, the reasons behind it, as well as the ethics of the photo, which has now been published on several mainstream media outlets. Speaking of seeing inappropriate things, a Qantas flight recently screened a movie for all its passengers without realising it was sexually explicit. We discuss the perfect storm of factors that could have made such a mistake possible…(00:00) Tell You First(00:48) Intro(09:55) That Photo of Iswaran in Prison Garb(25:54) Qantas Makes Passengers Watch R-Rated Movie(42:33) One Shiok Comment(48:54) One Shiok ThingOur New Podcast, TELL YOU FIRSTCheck out our new edutainment podcast that dives into a fascinating array of topics you never knew you needed to know!

It seems we’re not done talking about former Transport Minister Iswaran yet! Just before entering prison, he announced he will not be appealing his one-year sentence. We examine his statement and try to read between the lines. Why the change of tone? How will Singaporeans view him now? Separately, the craze over Labubu dolls here has finally spread to… Taoism?? We discuss if their use in a recent Taoist ceremony has crossed a line.(00:00) Folklory(00:40) Intro(04:48) Iswaran Apologises, Begins Jail Term(28:32) Taoism-themed Labubu Dolls?(40:07) One Shiok Comment(44:04) One Shiok ThingFolkloryIf you’re looking for a meaningful gift, we’d love to help you create a personal podcast for a loved one.

The verdict is out! We break down former Transport Minister Iswaran’s jail sentence, and ask the tough questions. Who really won and lost? What else would we have learned if the case went to trial? What’s with Haresh and all his conspiracy theories? We also discuss how a food court ended up reproducing a local artist’s work without permission, and did they try to get around copyright concerns with generative AI?(00:00) Ergotune Vesby(01:00) Intro(07:05) Iswaran Gets 12 Months’ Jail(42:14) Food Court ‘Steals’ Artist’s Work?(52:23) One Shiok Comment(55:23) One Shiok ThingErgotuneVesby is Singapore’s first 100% locally designed office task chairAvailable in 5 colours: Charcoal Black, Caesius Blue, Coral Red, Celadon Green, and Ash BrownAffiliate link: https://ergotune.com/?ref=YAHLAHBUTPODCASTGet $20 off Vesby, with the Promo Code: YAHLAHBUTPODCAST (stackable with other discounts)Find 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/?hl=enYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@yahlahbutIswaran Gets 12 Months’ JailFormer Singapore minister S Iswaran sentenced to 12 months' jail for obtaining valuables worth S$403,300, obstructing justiceIswaran gets jail: Key moments from graft probe to sentencingWhy was Iswaran handed a one-year jail sentence?

In news that both sucks and blows, Dyson has become the latest tech company in Singapore to do a sudden round of retrenchments, giving the relevant union only a day’s notice! We discuss what the union can still do, as well as Dyson’s broader impact locally. Also, Singapore’s last kampung is back in the spotlight after property TikTokers reported the land to be valued at a whopping $70 million. Why won’t the owner sell, and what should its eventual fate be? Back to chew on these issues after a month of paternity leave, is Haresh!(00:00) Words of Wisdom(00:42) Intro(15:20) Dyson’s Shock Layoffs(37:40) Singapore’s $70 Million Kampung(49:17) One Shiok Comment(54:37) One Shiok ThingOur NEW Podcast, TELL YOU FIRSTCheck out our edutainment podcast that dives into a fascinating array of topics you never knew you needed to know!

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.(00:00) Ergotune Vesby(00:57) Intro(25:47) MRT Disruption: Whose Fault?(58:38) How to Scam a Scammer(01:12:26) One Shiok ThingErgotuneVesby is Singapore’s first 100% locally designed office task chairAvailable in 5 colors: Charcoal Black, Caesius Blue, Coral Red, Celadon Green, and Ash BrownAffiliate link: https://ergotune.com/?ref=YAHLAHBUTPODCASTGet $20 off Vesby, with the Promo Code: YAHLAHBUTPODCAST (stackable with other discounts)Find us here!Our WebsiteYLB SubredditYLB Telegram ChannelYLB TikTokYLB IGYLB YouTubeFind Rishi!Tickets for Can I Make You A Suit, Mate?InstagramTikTokMRT Disruption: Whose Fault?East-West Line disruption: A timeline of what happenedEWL MRT disruption enters day 3, SMRT aims to restore full service by 30 September: Singapore live newsChee Hong Tat’s FB’s postChee Hong Tat: SMRT to replace 30+ rail segments on damaged EWL track with no clear timeline for completionRedditors highlight SMRT Chairman’s 2023 ‘avoid overmaintenance’ remark after EWL disruptionHow to Scam a ScammerLocal comedian trolls scammer impersonating police officerOne Shiok ThingThe Banana Pie Feud Between Dona Manis & Auntie Peng: Which Pie Is Better? | On The Red DotRace Against CancerMics and Headphones from @shureChairs from @ergotunechairEdited and mixed by Tristen Yeak

Just 2 days removed from F1, the trial of S Iswaran coincidentally begins…with a twist! The prosecution has amended charges of corruption against the former Minister, and he has pleaded guilty to the 5 outstanding charges. Is it over before it has even begun? What is happening here?

Is it Bad Behaviour Week in Singapore? A condominium guard threw an order of bubble tea at a delivery rider who did not have the unit number, and a woman helped her driver to cut into a busy lane by getting out of the car and standing in the middle of the lane!
