#PopVultures Ep 14: Nicholas Tse, Faye Wong and everyone in between!
22:32 mins
Synopsis: A podcast by The Straits Times that examines all the ins and outs of pop culture, be it Asian entertainment or Hollywood.
The romance of Hong Kong resident bad boy singer Nicholas Tse and Chinese pop diva Faye Wong has dominated headlines for nearly 20 years. The high-profile and dramatic May-December relationship (Wong is 11 years older than Tse), with all its twists, turns, trials and tribulations, is confusing even for their most die-hard fans.
The #PopVultures are here with an all-you-need-to-know about Tse and Wong's love affairs: from the couple's historic hand-holding photo of 2000, to their marriages/divorces with Hong Kong actress Cecilia Cheung, Chinese actor Li Yapeng, and even the Edison Chen sex photo scandal of 2008.
Finally, the #PopVultures break down why, of all the celebrity romances, Tse and Wong have so captured the public's imagination. Join Jan Lee and Yeo Sam Jo as they discuss the narratives around this 20-year saga of soap opera proportions.

Asian Insider Ep 7: US - North Korea
12:35 mins
Synopsis: This is Asian Insider, a series by The Straits Times every Friday. Together with our stable of 30 correspondents based around the world, we give an Asian perspective on the global talking points of the week.
North Korea recently test-fired another missile. This time it was launched from the sea, from what the North Koreans claim was from their submarine. But the US said it was from a water-platform of sorts. So where does this leave the US’ goal of a denuclearised Korean Peninsula?

Green Pulse Ep 10: The canary in the coalmine - how climate change affects nature
15:12 mins
Synopsis: In this series, The Straits Times dives into all things green, blue and brown. Green Pulse analyses the beat of the changing environment, from biodiversity conservation to climate change.
This month, ST’s environment correspondent Audrey Tan chats with Dr Yong Ding Li, flyways coordinator at conservation group BirdLife International (Asia) on how climate change could impact natural habitats and wildlife.
Climate change has dominated headlines around the world. In September, the United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres convened a Climate Action Summit in New York to urge nations to do more to cut their planet-warming emissions.
A raft of scientific reports by the United Nations and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change have all also pointed to how unabated warming could affect food supplies and water resources, and cause sea levels and temperatures to rise.
All these can have widespread impact on human communities -- and the wildlife around them too. Tune in to this podcast to find out how nature could be impacted, and why protecting them is so important.

It's so controversial – well, to some it is.
Some love it, some do not. It is the Marmite of movies.
Jonathan Roberts and Joanne Soh have very different takes on Todd Phillips' Joker.
Yes, Joaquin Phoenix is good but what about the rest of the film.
Before that, there is a different side to Awkwafina in family dramedy The Farewell. Get the tissues ready.
