Hello! We've had something in the works for some time now and it's finally here: The PS:MY x Epic Arcade Special. In this episode, we put Kelvin and Afiq, aka the Epic Arcade boys, in the hot seat.

It was non-stop laughter as the guys took us back to the beginnings of their bromance, and dished on their hottest gaming takes. Amid the chaos, the duo also had lots of nuggets of wisdom to share, particularly about accountability and content creation. If anything, these two surely know how to have a good time. Enjoy!

Editor's note: Please excuse the audio quality, we're all recording virtually - some of us, without actual microphones. Stay safe everyone!

On this week’s episode, we have the bubbly AG of The Sambal Pod, a podcast which champions youth voices. Join Kelvin as he picks her brain on the reality of running a youth-centred platform. She opens up about old and new insecurities, being political, leading a team, and wanting to create actual change. And what’s more? AG does this all while being a full-time chemistry student! It’s a spicy episode not to be missed.

Hello hello hello! On this week’s episode, Kelvin steps out of his comfort zone and talks the birds and the bees with sex-positive advocate, Jasmine King (@iwishthepod @jasexplains). Nothing was held back as we delved into myths, sex toys, the pleasure gap, and child marriages.

Jasmine also dished her top tips on creating safe spaces, reaching out to guests, and public speaking! Hint: Talk to yourself.
