SEASON FINALE!! Thank you so much for listening in the last few months. This is by far the best project Iâve worked on by myself and I hope every single one of you enjoyed it as much as I have.
This last episode of the series is a personal one but rest assured there are still a few twists and jokes on this podcast. This pod is all about my transition process, how I felt, how I am feeling and how I pledge to become. The most personal podcast yet!

It seems like today every news is bad news. There are so many unjust and inequality embedded in todayâs society, right down to our pockets. I am not joking, pockets inequality is a real thing.

HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR!!
This is the biggest holiday for Chinese culture and one of the biggest holidays in the world. There are so many traditions and customs to look at, so so many cool things happen during this week. In this short episode, I will attempt to do a quick recap on what happens and of course, who is the god of wealth. -
This marks the 10th Episode of Awkward Turtle! For this small milestone, I will be talking about one of the most common languages across the world. Food. Everyone loves food. Everyone enjoys a good meal. Especially living in Hong Kong, itâs a big culture within eating out. You can find all sorts of cuisines here, from street food to world-renowned Michelin Star restaurants. But I must confess - I am very much against it. I am always rushing to finish my food and I would order the same over and over again. And here is why.

Since I have thrown my girlfriend under the bus in the last episode, itâs only fair to throw myself under the bus in the following week.
This episode is around a few quirks and strong opinions I have. I share some of my values in life and what bugs me the most. And if you ever feel like you want to prank me, you can probably draw a lot of inspiration from this episode. Enjoy!

They always say the secret of dating is that you should find someone who has common interests, someone who can make you better and someone who has the same values as you. I have not listened to that advice and here is how it turned out.

Ohhh what I would do to be born in the 2000s. Where the internet is on fleek and everything is so woahhh. Technology was a very different thing when I was growing up. WorkArt and Pinball were the best apps, where today TikTok and Instagram takes the crown. We also talk about how the memes culture have evolved from the original planking and Harlem Shake. Memes are now so commonly used, what will this mean for the future?!

My parents spotted I wasnât going to be the sharpest tool in the box, so they sent me to a boarding school to build CHARACTER. A chance for me to thrive, a place where not only academic matters.
My life took a very different turn, I had some great experiences that I would have never gotten and made some life long friends, oh and I can no longer count.

2020 has been an eventful year, to say the least. We all discovered things about ourselves that we shouldn't know for example how many hours we can stay in Pjs for. 2021 just need to get here now. Happy New Year!

They say itâs the hopes that kills you as an Arsenal fan. This is very true and even more true when you are living 10,000 miles across the world. Waking up at 3am to watch Arsenal is a whole other experience on its own. Being an Arsenal fan in Asia has given some tips on how to navigate real life, how to deal with with disappointments and frustrations but with a glimmer of hope that everything will be great again *fingerscrossed*

Western and Asian values are extremely different. I have learned that sometimes the off-colour comments is unintentional, ignorance or just flat out racist. We also talk about what is the best way to react if this awful thing happens to you. If in doubt just smile and be nice, that always throws them off. If you can't convince them, confuse them. *Plays Selena Gomez - Kill them with Kindness*

Football is a macho man sport, a place for grown men. Well, I beg to differ. Football has been marketed externally as a macho sport. But really itâs a reality TV show for men. Transfer window, new player unveiling, awards shows is basically the Met Gala for boys.

Hong Kong - one of the biggest city in the world. Known for its fast-paced and efficiency, the city truly never sleeps, the powerhouse of Asia. A city where 7-11 is king, and 5 mins equals forever. Convenience and speed is the minimum requirement for anything you do here, everyday life is on fast forward x4. This week we look into what makes Hong Kong Hong Kong? Is it the Dim Sum, is it the Skyscrapers or is it *DRUMROLL* Minibuses?

CORONAVIRUS CORONAVIRUS CORONAVIRUS
The most talked about topic of 2020. 2020 is the year that we all re-confirmed that most men in power are a bit of a fraud. The world pretty much collapsed and there will be a ânew normalâ on the rise. But what does all these mean to tissues companies, tourists and the most important thing - what will happen to fuckboys?!

Listen. Hereâs the deal. You give me approx 10 mins and 39 seconds a week and I will give you a few things that everyone wants. I will give you confidence, you will feel more attractive and I will give you happiness. Because the jokes is on me!
This podcast is basically me oversharing the ever little things that I take way too personally. Things like why canât Apple just know we donât ever close the Spotify App on purpose. Itâs disrupting my flow into my nap, big time. Yes, Itâs serious okay guys. My ears doesnât need as much rest as my eyes does, okay.
So, if you need something to just relax for a few moments, I give you, the Awkward Turtle podcast.
