Today YY came into the recoridng with a lot of his personal experience in regards to Kiu Ong Ia. I learned a bunch from chatting with them. In the middle of the chat, a few laughs are unavoidable. Enjoy and have a holy Kiu Ong Ia, if you do celebrate! Or happy eating, if you just love vegetarian food like me. Share your own Kiu Ong Ia stories in our Penang Hokkien forum.

Kuan Kong and Ah Tox and a few more listeners started their own podcast called:

PGHK #61 Pasar Malam

Guests: TomYam, Beh Ki Beh Lok, and Hiao Lok

As Malaysians, and especially Penangites, Pasar Malam is definitely not a new thing for you. Almost everyone has something to talk about. This time we have three guests sharing on the show what they like about Pasar Malam, and what sort of memory they have about Pasar Malam. Share your own Pasar Malam experience in the comment area or in our Penang Hokkien forum.

More Podcasts for you

UPDATED 3/10/06: Just to clarify to all of you that PenangHokkienTV2 is not my idea. The only relationship with me is that Penang Hokkien listeners are the ones who started PenangHokkienTV2. That I’m very proud of. But at the moment, there is no connection with PenangHokkien.com. We’ll see about the future of it being a part of the Penang Hokkien feed. But we’ll let the show mature a little, and get consistent, and I’ll decide about adding that into PenangHokkien.com feed. So, please go to their own website and send suggestions to them directly, and not to me. Thanks.

Our very own Kuan Kong and some other Penang Hokkien listeners have started their own podcast. They call it Penang Hokkien TV2.

PenangHokkien.com Awareness Listeners: TauKnguah, Tau Pok, & Ah Chim

TauKnguah, Tau Pok, Ah Chim

If you want to help me spread my site, and be the STAR on PenangHokkien.com, simply get your picture or a picture that would show your location, or something that represent yourself (if you’re camera shy), then on the picture somewhere, include “PenangHokkien.com”. I’ll be featuring the pictures every one or two weeks. Thanks!

PGHK #58 Pai Ang Kong (拜尪公)

Guests: Oh Tao & Shua Hu

Correction: One of our listeners pointed out that Ang Kong is actually not Red, as in ?, but ? instead.

Shua Hu and Oh Tao talked about the rituals of worshiping the deities. I grew up Catholic, so I don’t have a lot to say, but sure did have a lot of questions to ask. Of course, no episode would escape from my craziness. Share your own Ang Kong stories and experience here in the comment area or in our Penang Hokkien forum.
