Is Singlish an embarassing habit or our greatest national treasure?

In this episode, Annette and Dewy unpack the most chaotic, beautiful, and controversial thing about how Singaporeans speak — Singlish.

From code-switching in school to ordering kopi like a pro, we dive into what makes Singlish feel so uniquely us — and how it brings together people from different races, cultures, and backgrounds through one shared voice.

We also talk about where the line is — when Singlish is a vibe… and when it’s not.
Is it inclusive or confusing? Casual or careless? And who really gets to decide?

What’s your core void deck memory?

A wedding? A wake? That one time you skipped school and bought snacks from the mama shop? In this episode, Zaki Hussain and i talk about the realest communal space in Singapore — the void deck.

From casual hangs to family milestones, we break down how this concrete corner under our flats has quietly shaped how we live, grieve, celebrate, and connect — across all races, cultures, and generations.

We also asked you for your best void deck stories and you delivered. So now we’re asking: what role should void decks play in the future?

How does where we live shape who we are — and who we grow up with?

In this episode, Annette and Jeevan dive into the invisible design of Singapore’s heartlands: from the Ethnic Integration Policy to carefully planned HDB blocks, parks, and public transport. They explore how urban planning isn’t just about buildings — it’s about the daily moments that quietly bring people from different walks of life together.

They hit the streets to ask Gen Zs what they really know about EIP — and why, even if they don’t notice it, it’s already part of how they experience community, culture, and connection.

From floor parties and food exchanges to bus uncles and block identities — this episode unpacks the unspoken design behind how we live together.

In Singapore, food brings us together — but could it also be what’s quietly putting us at risk?

Annette and Ian Jeevan dive into the sweet (and not-so-sweet) realities of our eating habits, looking at how different cultures in Singapore enjoy sugar — from Chinese desserts to Indian staples — and how that affects our health over time.

They reflect on the real impact diabetes has had in their own families, how national efforts like Nutri-Grade have shaped our choices, and why we need to talk about health not just as individuals, but as communities.

Is your supper habit worth the sugar spike?
We talk about how to care for ourselves and each other — across generations, cultures, and kopitiam menus.

Everyone knows it’s illegal. So why are so many people still va**ng in Singapore — especially Gen Zs?

In this episode of Real Blue Zone, hosts Annette Lee and Zaki Hussain dive into the weird double life of va**ng in a country known for its strict laws. From the secret codes of v**e sellers to the emotional reasons people pick up the habit, we unpack it all — with a lot of laughter, and a whole lot of facts.

This episode doesn’t preach. It pokes, jokes, and questions — all while dropping stats, research, and real insights about what va**ng is doing to our health, our social circles, and our brains.
If you’ve ever wondered “Why is everyone still doing it?” — this is for you.

If everyone in your circle agrees with you… maybe it’s not a circle. It’s a bubble.
In this episode, we’re getting real about friendship diversity — and why differences matter more than most of us realise.

Annette and Zaki Hussain talk about what it means to have people in your life who aren’t just like you — in race, beliefs, personality, or politics. It’s not always comfortable. But it might be exactly what you need to grow.

From personal dealbreakers (like dishonesty and fake vibes) to navigating hard conversations, we break down what makes friendships last — and what makes them matter. And we hit the streets to ask Gen Z Singaporeans: how diverse are your friends, really?

If we’re going to live longer, will we actually have enough to live on? In this Episode of Real Blue Zone, Annette Lee sits down with Gen Z and ex-financial consultant Ian Jeevan to unpack what saving for the future really looks like — emotionally, practically, and socially — for young people in Singapore.

From CPF anxiety and delayed adulthood to feeling behind on investments, they explore the fears and confusion Gen Zs face when it comes to financial planning in a country designed for long life. Is saving really about numbers — or is it also about identity, freedom, and future caregiving?

Plus: we hit the streets to hear what Singaporean youths actually think about saving.

Are Gen Zs genuinely overwhelmed, or are we just being overly sensitive?

From burnout and boundary-setting to social media addiction and the pressures of hustle culture, we explore the complexities of growing up in a hyper-connected world.

Whether you're feeling the weight of expectations or simply curious about the mental health landscape for young adults, this episode offers valuable insights and candid discussions on thriving in today's fast-paced environment.

Living with your parents is free... but at what cost?

In this premiere episode of Real Blue Zone, hosts Annette Lee and Dewy Choo explore one of the biggest adulting dilemmas in Singapore: whether to move out or stay home — and what that decision really means for our mental health, freedom, and relationships.

In a country where space is limited and multigenerational homes are the norm, young adults are increasingly asking: Is independence worth the rent? Or is staying home a valid act of care, survival, and even strategy?

We talk about emotional boundaries, cultural expectations, caregiving pressure, and why it’s okay to want your own space — or stay put — as long as it’s a choice you own.
