    Jimmy, I posted the wrong file on this post. That’s why you couldn’t get it. But I have fixed it. Sorry about the problem.

    But all those subscribed by using iTunes or any other aggregator will not have this problem.

    I like this episode very much! I think Ah John Hokkien is getting much better! I wish there will be more culture/tradition themed episode. I’ve learnt much about Chinese wedding in this episode.

  4. Ah Cent

    Good job Jonh!

  5. Ah Cent

    Good Job John! Miss talking to you thou.

    Penangknia, kam siah for you o-loh (praise). We obviously can’t finish up the show in one short 30-minute session. Hopefully next week, I can call them back to finish up the talk. If not, I’ll do that on the following week.

    Ah Cent, I’ll keep you in mind on my future shows. I’d love to chat with you too.

  7. Medan Lang

    Can’t believe how close the tradition between our lives and traditions in Medan and yours in Penang. Even the table with red pinkish table cloth with plastic chair is the same. In the old times, you even have live rooster for “Shang Jit” Love to talk to you John. I think it would be cool.

  8. John Ong

    Medan Lang, it’s pretty interesting to find the similarities and differences. I’d like to have you on the show in the future to talk about all that. If you’re interested, please send me an email, we’ll chat more. Thanks for listening, and supporting the show.

    Actually, the support goes out to ALL the listeners. I really appreciate your support. And several of the listeners are also guests on the show. And I intend to keep doing this. Anyone who’s interested just shoot me an email.
