#GameOfTwoHalves Ep 99: The big EPL kickoff: Are Chelsea contenders or pretenders?
14:20 mins
Synopsis: #GameofTwoHalves is The Straits Times' weekly sports podcast that is out every Tuesday.
Money FM's Howie Lim calls up ST assistant sports editor Jonathan Wong and sports correspondent Sazali Abdul Aziz to discuss the following topics:
1. The English Premier League kicks off this weekend, and all eyes are on big-spending Chelsea - is their summer shopping spree enough to turn them into genuine title contenders, or will it backfire on Frank Lampard? And which manager will get the sack first this season?
2. There were some surprises over the weekend in Formula One - Lewis Hamilton finished seventh at the Italian Grand Prix after starting on pole - and the US Open - with huge favourite Novak Djokovic being disqualified after a bizarre incident with a line judge. Our podcasters weigh in on the unexpected turn of events.
Produced by: ST Sports Desk
Edited by: Aw Yao Feng, Nadiah Koh & Penelope Lee

The Big Story Ep 31: Good for S'pore to have adequate opposition MPs, but disagreement must not lead to polarisation, paralysis: PM Lee
3:52 mins
Synopsis: This is a special episode of The Straits Times' video series The Big Story.
Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong says having an adequate number of opposition MPs in Parliament is good for Singapore as this keeps the Government on its toes, and shows Singaporeans that it has nothing to hide.
But he adds that more opposition MPs and fiercer debate in the House may not necessarily be better, cautioning that the tone of Singapore's political debate could change for the worse.

Green Pulse Ep 29: Perilous journeys of migratory birds
19:42 mins
Synopsis: The Straits Times analyses the beat of the changing environment, from biodiversity conservation to climate change.
Travel may be off the cards for humans during the pandemic, but not for some birds. Every year from around September, Singapore welcomes scores of birds from as far north as the Arctic Circle, who fly halfway across the world to escape the winter chill of the northern hemisphere.
ST's science and environment correspondent Audrey Tan and climate editor David Fogarty, host ornithologist David Tan. Mr Tan was once Singapore’s 'bird man', who traversed Singapore picking up bird carcasses.
They discuss the following:
1. Where can people spot these migrant birds, such as arctic warblers or yellow-rumped flycatchers? (3:10)
2. How birds orientate themselves when migrating? (4:45)
3. Bird-window collisions: What does the data show in Singapore? (11:35)
4. What adaptations are being done globally in cities to reduce bird-window collisions? (13:20)
5. What should people do if they come across bird carcasses or disoriented and injured birds in Singapore? Concerns over migrating birds bringing in diseases? (15:25)
To report bird carcasses, call: 84495023
