    S1E5: Set up strong passwords using Singlish and unique phrases May 24, 2022
    Show notes

    Synopsis: This is a special-edition podcast series by The Straits Times to raise greater public awareness of the modern scourge of scams in Singapore and globally.
    In Singapore, nearly $1 billion has been lost by scam victims since 2016. Mutating and spreading, different types of scams have infiltrated every aspect of our lives, from romance to work. The police are cracking down on offenders. What can you do to protect yourself?
    In the series’ fifth episode, ST’s deputy news editor Andre Yeo, crime correspondent David Sun and journalist Jessie Lim speak with Mr Willis Lim, director of the National Cyber Threat Analysis Centre, the research division of the Cyber Security Agency (CSA) that oversees Singapore's cyber security strategy. Mr Lim talks about the ways cyber criminals identify potential victims and new scams the CSA is seeing in 2022.

    Synopsis: Every first and third Monday of the month, get our tips on working smarter, getting ahead in your career and investing like a pro with ST's business correspondents and editors.

    They say the ones pitching against women at workplaces aren't men, but women who have crossed the bridge of success and decided to blow it up. Do such women exist and why? What are working women up against at the workplaces, and how should they navigate them? How do men feel about being the apex body that just cannot seem to win?

    In this episode, ST's senior correspondent Krist Boo hosts Professor Chong Sin Hui, assistant professor of organisational behaviour from Nanyang Technological University, and Mr Toh Keng Hoe - a corporate executive, a part-time lecturer, a Singapore Computer Society volunteer, and most pertinently... a man.

    Highlights (click/tap):

    04:00 What are Queen Bees and why do they exist?

    10:08 Are women just pretty faces that sell solutions in the tech industry?

    S1E64: The disturbing 'memeification' of Johnny Depp-Amber Heard's trial: #PopVultures May 20, 2022
    Show notes

    Synopsis: The Straits Times examines the ins and outs of pop culture in the Asian entertainment and Hollywood scene.

    The defamation suit between former Hollywood couple Johnny Depp and Amber Heard have put the ugly details of their marriage out for public scrutiny. The two stars were married briefly from 2015 to 2016, after dating for several years.

    In 2018, Heard wrote an op-ed in The Washington Post saying that she "became a public figure representing domestic abuse" in 2016. Depp sued for defamation over this and alleged instead that Heard was abusive towards him.

    The ensuing trial has become a media circus. Social media is flooded with memes, spliced and edited videos of the trial, pseudoscience analyses of Depp and Heard's body language and hashtags such as #JusticeForJohnnyDepp and #AmberHeardIsAPsychopath trending on Twitter.

    PopVultures host Jan Lee gives her thoughts on why the public reaction to the trial has been deeply troubling and how the whole saga has been mired with backlash over the #MeToo movement.

    Highlights (tap/click above):

    03:04 Introduction of the Depp-Heard relationship and defamation suits Depp has embarked on

    12:04 The disturbing memeification of the trial and why it needs to stop

    21:03 How #MeToo ties into the trial

    S1E83: Does the secret of good sleep lie only with you? - Health Check May 17, 2022
    Show notes

    Synopsis: Every first and third Wednesday of the month, The Straits Times helps you make sense of health matters that affect you.

    Today, there are countless distractions keeping us up at night and stopping us from having a good night's sleep. Yet, sleep is one of the three pillars of a healthy lifestyle (nutrition and exercise are the other two), and in recent years, there has been much interest in how we can sleep better. But are personal measures enough to improve sleep? This, given he erosion of work-life boundaries and the overwhelming amount of digital distractions today.

    In Part 2, ST senior health correspondent Joyce Teo continues the conversation on sleep with Professor Michael Chee, the director of the Centre for Sleep and Cognition at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine at the National University of Singapore. Prof Chee has spent close to two decades studying sleep and its impact on cognition and behaviour.

    Highlights (click/tap above):

    00:49 Balancing structural measures with personal commitment to improve sleep

    04:10 Benefits of starting school later in Singapore; effects of sleep for students

    07:38 Consequence of chronic short sleep for adults and the elderly

    09:12 Tips for effective short naps; should you avoid exercise at night?

    10:23 Why alcohol at night really affects sleep quality; debate on caffeinated drinks

    Produced by: Joyce Teo (joyceteo@sph.com.sg), Ernest Luis and Hadyu Rahim

    Edited by: Eden Soh
