AcidFlask Interview



I received the notification of the following via email and thought others might be interested in listening to the interview. I have yet to give feedback regarding the podcast but will do so as soon as time permits.Kevin Lim interviews Elia Diodati (a.k.a. AcidFlask)...

From our point of view, we speak constructively about where we see Singapore on a global scale, and what we could possibly do to improve Singapore's outlook. An emergent theme was for individuals to think for themselves and not to rely on existing local norms for socio-economic cues. Adding to this, I share my views on why I think it is important for Singaporeans to see and experience cultural differences (e.g. by travelling), while Elia Diodata elaborates on this by saying how we need to see the box in order to be able to step out of it (or realizing we can't step out of it at all). I hope for this podcast to serve as an 'idea springboard' on how we can jumpstart Singapore's future.

  1. Thanks for the push. I find it weird that no one's said anything after hearing about this podcast. Two theories: Either I'm very unpopular, or Singaporeans indeed don't "dare" to say anything connected to what we talk about anymore, especially if it might get them in trouble. Frankly speaking though, there's nothing "evil" or political in our conversation... it's mostly coffee shop talk. Do give feedback... no one seems to do so. :)
