Zan Azlee and Matt Armitage return to A Bit of Culture and one of them might get in trouble with a lot of people as they discuss mass media’s appeal to the lowest common denominator. But prior to that, Kam kicks off the show by talking about optimism vs pessimism, forcing everyone to look in the mirror to assess their own personalities. From there, they move on to talking about brain implants and whether it’s something we should embrace as and when it becomes an option for all of us. It’s another exciting episode of A Bit of Culture that promises to entertain you!
