哈喽朋友们，欢迎来到《友话直说》第七集！
今天我们来聊聊「男女平等的定义到底是什么？」
从“第一次约会到底该谁付钱”一路聊到性别角色、女权、同志平等——还有谢谢我们热情的观众投稿，分享了他们的真实故事！
我们也聊到：女生是不是就该顾家？男生就一定要赚钱？同志在社会上到底有多难被平等对待？
什么才是真正的平等？
不是你请我吃饭我就觉得被尊重了，也不是女生强势一点就“不女人”了好吗～

Hello friends, welcome to episode 4 of Just Say It Now!
Today we’re talking about gender equality — what it means to you, to us?
We started with the classic question: who should pay on the first date? And then… yeah, we went everywhere from there. (as usual)
We talked about all kinds of stuff — relationships, feminism, being gay, the roles people expect us to play, and how unfair a lot of it still is.
Big thanks to everyone who sent in stories too, we loved reading them and sharing some on the show!
Basically — it’s not just about who picks up the bill.
And no, being a strong woman doesn’t make you “too much.”
And yeah, being gay still comes with way too much judgment.

EP 4｜这个国家,到底懂不懂什么是抄袭？
这一集有点不一样。平常我们都聊一些轻松的话题，但今天，我们想聊一件让我们心里有点沉的事。
作为建筑设计师和马来西亚人的我们，真的看不下去了。到底设计什么时候才能不能任意踩踏？
Fey，一位勇敢为自己发声的设计师，曾为MITI设计出一个作品，代表马来西亚参加 The Malaysian Pavilion for Expo 2025 Osaka。他花了三年，倾注心血完成了这个作品，但项目突然改为公开招标，最终的设计却与他的原作几乎一模一样——但是他没有被提及，没有被感谢，甚至连名字都没有留在作品里。
更让人心寒的是，虽然这个设计和著名建筑设计师Kengo Kuma合作过，Fey还提供了Kengo本人的支持信和其他证据，然而MITI却依旧将其列为证据不足。目前这件事件还在调查中。
在这一集里，我们想聊聊“设计”在我们社会中的位置——为什么创意和劳动总是难以得到认同？为何那些背后默默付出的灵感与汗水总被忽视？为什么艺术总是与富裕阶层挂钩，而真正的创意却被践踏？
我们也想借此机会，把Fey的话送给大家：作为设计师，我们从来不是要掌声，而是希望我们的作品不被践踏。
“We’re not asking for applause,” Fey wrote. “We’re asking not to be stepped on.”
欢迎你和我们一起聊聊——关于被看见，关于被尊重，关于我们最熟悉也最心痛的设计这件事。
This episode is a bit different. Normally, we talk about light-hearted topics, but today, we want to discuss something that weighs heavily on our hearts.
As architects and Malaysians, we simply can’t stand by and watch. When will design stop being trampled on?
Fey, a designer who bravely spoke up for himself, created a design for MITI to represent Malaysia at The Malaysian Pavilion for Expo 2025 Osaka. He spent three years pouring his heart into this project, but suddenly, the project was put out to tender. The final design was nearly identical to his original, yet he was not mentioned, thanked, or even credited at all.
What’s even more disheartening is that, although the design was done in collaboration with renowned architect Kengo Kuma, and Fey even provided Kengo’s personal support letter alongside other evidence, MITI still listed it as insufficient evidence. This is still under investigation with MITI.
In this episode, we want to talk about the position of “design” in our society—why is creativity and hard work so often unrecognized? Why are the efforts, inspiration, and sweat that go unnoticed so easily ignored? Why is art always associated with the wealthy, while true creativity gets trampled?
We also want to share this quote from Fey: “We’re not asking for applause,” Fey wrote. “We’re asking not to be stepped on.”
Join us in this heartfelt conversation—about being seen, being respected, and the design we know and love, but also the design that often gets hurt.
《友话直说》EP3 恭喜你，你已经在成功的路上前进了！
--------------
这一集的灵感来自我们最近的生活状态——挣扎、疲惫、甚至有点迷茫。有时候真的会觉得自己停滞不前，什么都做不好，什么都没有进展。但其实，这些不安、焦虑和失败，往往正是我们成长路上必经的过程。
有一天，Janette在通勤的火车上写下这样一段话：
“其实我想说的是，我不是一个喜欢做自己不擅长的事情的人，因为那个未知让我很不安。但是成长的路上，伴随的一定是不舒服感。不断摸索、推自己前进，一边焦虑一边跟自己讲：‘过了这一关，你会更好。’无论是好的还是坏的经历，它们都会让你变得更好。”
我们也分享了一些朋友的创业故事。他们曾经历失败、欠债、资金周转困难，但每一次都咬牙坚持，重新站起来。特别感谢Janette的朋友愿意让我分享他的经历——他的故事真的很鼓舞人心，也希望能为你带来一点力量。
很多时候，我们只看见别人“突然成功”，却忽略了背后默默承受的痛苦、坚持与牺牲。所以，如果你最近也正处在一个焦虑、不安甚至感到“失败”的阶段，那我要对你说——恭喜你，你已经在通往更好自己的路上了。
不要放弃，你真的做得到！加油！
适合在迷茫与焦虑中摸索、在不安中悄悄成长，却始终没有放弃努力的你。
你最近也有这样的时刻吗？欢迎留言和我们分享你的故事。
This episode was inspired by something we've both been feeling lately—tired, stuck, maybe even a little lost. You know those moments when it feels like you’re going nowhere, nothing’s working, and you’re not making any progress?
But the truth is, that discomfort, that uncertainty, even that sense of failure—it’s all part of becoming who you’re meant to be.
Janette wrote this one day on the train:
“I’ve never been someone who enjoys doing things I’m not good at. The unknown makes me uncomfortable. But I’ve come to realise that growth always feels uncomfortable. We push ourselves forward, stumble, panic, then whisper to ourselves: ‘Get through this, and you’ll be better.’ Every experience—good or bad—makes us stronger.”
In this episode, we also share a few stories from friends who’ve started their own businesses. They’ve been through failures, debt, cash flow issues—you name it. But they never gave up. Every fall brought them closer to where they are now.
Big thanks to Janette’s friend who allowed us to share his story. It was incredibly inspiring, and we hope it brings you some encouragement too.
We often only see people’s “overnight success” and not the pain, grit, and sacrifices behind it.
So if you’re feeling anxious, uncertain, or even like you’re failing right now—congratulations.
You’re already on your way to becoming something greater.
Don’t give up. You’re doing better than you think.
For anyone who’s quietly growing through discomfort, navigating fear, and still choosing to keep going.
Have you had one of those moments lately?
We’d love to hear your story.

《友话直说》EP2上线啦！ 本集录音过程中出现了一些技术小插曲，感谢大家的包容～我们正在持续优化中，争取下一集呈现得更清晰、更顺耳。谢谢你们一路听我们说话！
------------------------------
EP 2｜感情不是出轨，就是在被出轨的路上？
朋友出轨，我也被出轨——几乎在同一时间。
这一集，我们聊聊感情里的狗血时刻：
出轨的心理、背叛的痛、犯错后的懊悔，
还有那句争议金句：“不被爱的才是第三者？”
我们也问了一个现实又扎心的问题：
“你是为了爱，还是为了结婚而结婚？”
两个视角，一个被伤害的人，一个犯过错的人，
一起拆解爱情里最灰、最真实的那一面。
适合所有对感情失望/心碎过、被出轨过、或偷偷出轨过别人的你收听。
最后，也想问你——如果你发现你朋友的另一半出轨，你会说吗？
------------------------------
My friend cheated. I got cheated on. And both happenedalmost at the same time — wild, right?
In this episode, we unpack the messy, heartbreaking, andsometimes confusing side of modern relationships. We talk about what drivessomeone to cheat, what it feels like to be betrayed, and what happens whenyou're the one who messed up. And of course, we can’t stop circling back tothat one quote: “The one who isn’t loved is the third party?”
We also ask a big question that hits deeper than it seems:Are you getting married for love — or just to get married?
You’ll hear two perspectives. One person who was hurt, andone who made mistakes. Together, we try to make sense of the chaos that lovecan bring.
This one’s for anyone who’s been heartbroken, cheated on, orjust stuck in the grey zone of modern love.
And hey — if you found out your friend’s partner was cheating… would you tellthem?

作为《友话直说》的第一集，我们想分享一位朋友的故事。
两人因为相爱而决定厮守终生，却因为家庭背景、社会的眼光与现实的挑战而各奔东西。你是否曾问过自己，门当户对究竟有多重要？还是说，只有真心相爱，才是能够克服一切的力量？
有朋友曾说，爱情如果没有合适的基础，可能会随着时间逐渐变淡；而两颗合适的心，会在彼此的陪伴中，越走越稳。
如果你也在为类似的困惑而徘徊，不妨来听听这个故事，说不定你会找到属于你的答案。
In the first episode of 《Just Say It Now》, we share the story of a friend.
They were deeply in love and chose to spend their lives together, but life had other plans. Their different family backgrounds, societal expectations, and the challenges of life ultimately pulled them apart. Is "family compatibility" really that crucial? Or can love conquer all, as long as they truly care for each other?
A friend once said that love fades over time if two people aren't truly compatible. But when two people are well-matched, their love only grows stronger with time.
If you've ever found yourself questioning the same things, come listen to this story – it might just help you find the answers you're searching for.
