Episode Synopsis


Over the weekend, Tan Cheng Bock, a former presidential candidate in 2011 and founder of the Progress Singapore Party, came forward to endorse his ex-rival Tan Kin Lian for the presidency. This action drew flak from presidential candidate, Ng Kok Song, who called it “gutter politics”, and many questioned what backlash PSP would face as a result. What’s the big issue? Elsewhere, Japan started releasing nuclear wastewater from Fukushima into the Pacific Ocean, causing a big ruckus among its immediate neighbours. Singaporeans took the opportunity to gorge themselves on more sushi before the release, but is it really that big a concern?Find us here!YLB Subreddit YLB TikTok YLB IG YLB YouTubeFolkloryGet 25% OFF this Teacher’s Day with code “HEART25” at Folklory.com!Offer ends on 30 Aug at 2359hrs!Book your recording by 4 Sep and get your Folklories by 11 Sep, guaranteed!So if you’re looking for a meaningful gift, we’d love to help you create it!Tan Cheng Bock Endorses Tan Kin LianTan Cheng Bock endorses Tan Kin Lian for S'pore presidential election 2023Opposition members' endorsement of Tan Kin Lian polarises voters by politicising Presidential Election: Ng Kok SongSingapore presidential election 2023: 4 takeaways from Q&A session with candidatesFukushima Wastewater Raises Concerns Among Sushi LoversDiners in S'pore eat more sushi ahead of Japan releasing treated radioactive water into seaExplainer: Why is Japan releasing treated radioactive water into the sea, and should S'pore consumers be concerned?South Korean protesters call for government action on Fukushima waterJapan to start releasing radioactive Fukushima wastewater into sea as early as April 2023S'pore to still import seafood from Japan after Fukushima nuclear wastewater releaseOne Shiok CommentComment by Majestic-Economist-6Comment by sajchistory1246One Shiok ThingBiggest Loch Ness Monster search in decades gets under waySpellcaster: The Fall of Sam Bankman-FriedMics and Headphones from @shureChairs from @ergotunechairDesk from @castlerysgPlants from @thenursery.sg*****EXCLUSIVE to YLB listeners: get 15% off plants from @thenursery.sg online store.
