Happy (Late) New Year! We’re very sorry we’ve not been uploading these past 3 months, alas here we are! This episode was recorded in late November when we actually met up in real life and recorded together. We discussed loneliness (together, ironically) and our general observation and experience with the matter. Through this episode, we hope you can find a different way to approach feelings of loneliness, and hopefully come out of it. As always, all the things we say are purely our opinions and our news segment is delivered with the research we gathered ourselves.

Description: (TW: mentions of child sexual assault, homophobia → SKIP TO 17:20) In this episode, we talked about some of our biggest insecurities and how society has shaped (and exploited) the insecurities that we have. We shared how we dealt with them and some of the things that we can do in order to combat feelings of self-doubt. In our TC HIGHLIGHTS segment, we also talked about two news stories that happened in Indonesia. Through this episode, we hope you guys find the courage to embrace your insecurities. Again, all the things we say are purely our opinions and our news segment is delivered with the research that we have gathered ourselves :-)

(TW: mentions of sexual assault, racism, homophobia) In this episode, we invited Diva and Tita to talk about social issues and activism in social media! The rise of social media has given us many advantages, especially in the aspect of social issues, but it also comes with its disadvantages - sometimes weighing heavier than the positives. We discussed some upsides and downsides, as well as given some advice on how to become a good ally. We had a lot of fun conversing with Diva and Tita, and we hope to invite more people in the future! Just a reminder: we are no experts on these issues. What we say are our opinions only and we don’t speak on behalf of the people impacted. :-)

(TW: mentions of sexual assault, murder, eating disorders) In this episode, we talk about dumb trends. With the Internet, there are so many passing trends that are plain stupid but a lot of us have participated in. We shared some of the most notable ones and also how problematic trends can affect us negatively. Don’t take this too seriously, these are just our opinions :-)
