Today’s episode is all about sending messages and changing behaviours. An NUS student thought it was a good idea to deflate the tyres of several cars to send a message about vehicular carbon emissions. Deflate only; no harm done right? We discuss the global movement that inspired this student, and why such actions may not be as clever as they seem. Meanwhile, the government has re-introduced a toilet hygiene mascot from two years ago, called Toilemon. It is a literal toilet bowl with eyes, to encourage everyone to keep toilets clean. Sure… but did they have to do it this way??(00:00) Words of Wisdom(00:55) Intro(04:38) Student Eco-activist Charged for Deflating Tyres(33:57) Singapore’s Toilet Mascot Returns(43:03) One Shiok Comment(47:00) One Shiok ThingNominate a Senior over 60 for Words of Wisdom!We’ll be recording 60 Folklories with 60 Singaporeans above 60 yrsSo if you know someone with stories & lessons to share, and you are in contact with them, do send us their details!This will be part of our “Words of Wisdom” Project as part of SG60Nominate someone by clicking here, and we’ll be in touch with you to get more information!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/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@yahlahbutStudent Eco-activist Charged for Deflating TyresNUS student allegedly deflated tyres of five cars in Woodlands, charged with being a public nuisance[2023] Activists drill holes in tyres of more than 60 SUVs at Exeter car dealership | Environmental activism | The Guardian[2023] Tyre Extinguishers: Anger after SUV tyres deflated by activists[2022] Tyre Extinguishers: A Night Out with the Climate Activists Sabotaging SUVsSingapore’s Toilet Mascot ReturnsS'pore created a toilet mascot called Toilemon to remind everyone to keep toilets clean & hygienicThe Green Guardians of SingaporeOne Shiok CommentComment by Mucus_Membrane_88Comment by ejsinonOne Shiok ThingHow i started the Timothee Chalamet lookalike contestWhy Joe Rogan Ditched the Left – And What It Means for AmericaMics and Headphones from @shureChairs from @ergotunechairThe Meat Club: Use the code “YLB20” for $20 off your order at https://themeatclub.com.sg/yahlahbut Edited and mixed by Tristen Yeak
