Idy's Notes

Jason and Shanghainese fiance Ting Ting talk about Shanghai's food, culture and city life. Idy reminisces about his 3 months in Shanghai and why he loved it.

A semi-professional golf player since the age of 7, our guest Jason shares funny stories from the green, the numerous benefits of golf, why Tiger Woods is NOT that awesome, as well as why the best players are the patient ones. (Unlike Chad, who shares stories of throwing golf clubs in fits of anger.)

Idy, Dexter and Chad lament how social gatherings nowdays are overshadowed by people texting on phones, super late comers, bad planners, and provide tips on how today's youth can improve in this area, as well as ideas for better interactions and bonding among friends! For once Idy and Dexter team up against Chad.

Our first Pretorian guest Ethan talks about Pretoria, pool parties, Joburg, and Idy's favorite topic, girls girls girls.

Our new guest Yoshi declares that as an Actuarial Science major, anything that Finance major Idy can do, he can do better. How to get a job at a bank, why banks should improve their poor customer service and Yoshi's druken stories are all discussed.

Our very own Starcraft MASTER Gino brings out the Gamer Geek in Idy as they discuss professional gamers, competitive gaming, WoW, and consoles. Also, believe it or not, we play for you... Mario Dubstep.

Chad and Idy discuss their big night out as VIPs during the champagne popping and bunny hopping Playmate of the Year Playboy party. Chad also teaches Idy how NOT to approach girls on the dance floor.

Torrid tales of Jealousy, Thwarted Love & Love Triangles are revealed when Dexter and Stephanie debate whether it is the jealous-er or the jealous-ee that should be pitied. Idy also divulges his tendency to 'eat vinegar' (??)

Repressed Boyfriends, Domineering Girlfriends - the new trend in Asian relationships? No, it's just Johnny Ive. Dexter admonishes Johnny Ive for putting H_'s before Bros, and Idy surprisingly, defends Johnny's choice to be whipped.

Dexter and Chad debate the pros and cons of Traditional and Simplified Chinese, as well as PinYin vs ZhuYin.

Idy and team dedicates this special solo show to the latest and greatest Whitney Houston.

Idy waxes surprisingly romantic as he describes his ideal Valentine's date and teaches the men out there how treat a lady. Amber, our long lost guest, returns and counters that one doesn't need money or fancy presents to make a girl happy and offers some solid arguments as to why the burden falls on men on this day. Chad frantically tries to soak it all in.

Idy, Chad and Johnny Ive gush like a gaggle of girlish groupies over Jeremy Lin as well as work up a debate over who should rightfully get to claim Jeremy Lin - Taiwan, or the US?

Bunny confesses her penchant for checking out other girls, which ultimately led to her friendship with Pumpkin today.

Idy draws out confessions of drunken debacles, sibling rivalry, and the underlying respect and affection between two of our favorite local bros. Harry and Jerry also explain why they would never end up fighting for the same girl by describing their ideal woman. Girls, heads up - these two gentlemen are single and ready to mingle.

Idy contemplates turning blonde to have more fun, lectures Chad and Dexter on Why a Gentleman should Suit Up for church and shares some pretty hilarious old school 90's rap by the OG Taiwan group LA Boyz. Idy also defends his love for KPop and why understanding lyrics aren't always necessary to enjoy good music as well as why Bullying is just Not Cool.

Our new guest Amy is the quintessential Miss Independent. Self reliant and intelligent, Amy shares what it takes for guys who like a more Westernized chick to catch and keep her interest. She also explains why it's important one should not give in and bribe the police in South Africa. Host Idy and Chad get schooled and enjoy it.

Listen to our guest 'Bunny', the female version of Idy, wax nostalgic on her journey from a violence prone tomboy to the self proclaimed lady she is today. One would think two such egomaniacs would clash, but surprisingly, it resulted in a BFF bond that deserves it's own celebrity name mash-up. Bi-dy? Producer Stepanie devil's advocate (ironically) to prevent the young, impressionable minds listening to the show from turning over to the dark side.

Our special guest May shares her love of Reggae, travel, and her impressive flair for accents. She also divulges stories as a traveling drama student and explains why European women may just be the hottest of them all. Host Idy and Chad also try their hand at accents, but to no avail.

Our daytime radio broadcaster, Xiao Ye shares the trials and tribulations of her job as well as the stereotypes she had of South Africa when she moved from Beijing. Chad and Idy also share disgusting stories of pests (of the animal kind) one encounters here in South Africa.
