Kumar is Singapore's NATIONAL treasure. 😍

@adamleetanjongkatong6869 23 күн бұрын

great episode! imo this feels like kumar is one of the rare few guests that doesnt let johnathan "influence" him on the podcast. Tells his stories matter of factly at his own pace, and doesnt't get side tracked at attempts to "spice up" his answers.

@lendleasereit6797 19 күн бұрын

on the contrary, i find jon paul the most empathetic and insightful. i rmb watching some good saves from him where if i recall he helped others not look bad in a bad situation. thus he has always been my favorite questioner (and listener). but of course these are just our individual opinions and we may be talking about different jons haha

@faithzzzzzzz 21 күн бұрын

Yes, Kumar...you are our national treasure. You did make an impact in Singapore. Thank you Daily Ketchup for inviting Kumar.

@kavithapalaniappan 24 күн бұрын

Honestly, it's one of the most raw and uplifting episodes from TDK. The topics discussed had a plethora of local nuances that spread over generations, yet everyone at the table (and of course us listening) could relate to them. TDK should consider making Kumar a permanent fixture on the show!

Was at a crosswalk at orchard when I overheard a teenage boy complaining to his friend. “My mother spend a thousand dollars on a bag. $200 also she wont give me”. At the moment I understood how the boomers felt about us Millennials. That aside, OMG ITS KUMAR!!!!!!!!!!!

Cannot agree more with Kumar about Free Loaders. After many years of organising great garden parties, some of my guests who came 3 ,4 or 5 times had never invited me & my husband to their homes, not even for a cup of tea, I decided no more parties. These people have no understanding about friendship. Its both ways - not one way !

I think Kumar is a natural commedian even off the stage. His witty mind and the way he say things just makes things funny. Is really a talent. I have seen other comedians off screen. They are hell serious and boring.

@athomenotavailable 20 күн бұрын

People need to realize that the atypical attributes that are classified into LGBTQ are not necessarily combined in neat little groups, such as transgender means straight person born into wrong gender. There are straight cross-dressers, homosexual crossdressers, crossdressers who identify as the gender they were born as or not. There are transgender MTF who are sexually attracted to females, FTM who are sexually attracted to males. And even sexual attraction can be include characteristics from both genders but still not be bisexual.
