Do you get frustrated at at the thought of driving? Or, do you just shut off your brain and listen to your favorite podcast, as your two favorite hosts take you on a sonic journey?
Changing gears from our recent topics, Adam and Jason talk about their observation and comparisons between driving in overseas vs Malaysia. They also talk about Malaysia’s car culture that irks them.
This episode has been a long time coming, and the hope is that this leaves you with some food for thought, and at the very least, some relatable chuckles.
Here’s a bit of an unorthodox question; how well do you think you know yourself? Are you able to pinpoint things that makes up your sense of identity?
Well, in this episode Adam and Jason are discussing exactly that. It’s a bit of a throw back to episode 12, but they both talk about their struggles reconciling the differences in their cultural and personal identity, along with some quirks growing up in a multi-cultural country such as Malaysia.
If you’re a third culture kid, this episode might either make you feel right at home, or resurface some less than ideal memories. Regardless, we hope this episode helps you feel more seen, and as usual, we hope you have a nice day.
The boys are back!

How often is it we ask ourselves the question, “who am I?”. Not to come off as a couple of freshmen from an introduction to philosophy class, but this is what Adam and Jason are trying to understand better in this episode.
Adam reflects on his time in therapy and the questions that arose from that, while they also discuss how life events might have shaped how they behave and think thus far.
This episode is going to be a bit of a deeper cut compared to the usual fare, so prepare to strap yourselves in. Otherwise, as usual, enjoy this episode, and have a nice day!
Do you sometimes wonder about the stuff you read on the Internet? How valid they are? Have you had long-held beliefs shaken?
Well, in this episode, Adam and Jason are discussing exactly that, what truth is on the Internet , and what “truth” really even is.
They go on to talk about how they define and find their “truth”, and how they think this topic gives some insight into AI!
Tin foil hat or without, hopefully this episode helps you get closer to your truth. As usual, enjoy the episode, and have a nice day!
Adam’s back! In this episode, Adam and Jason are recording live from Malaysia! This also happens to be Kosong’s 10th episode, and what fortuitous timing indeed.
Charged up with the spices of South East Asia and homemade coffee, Adam and Jason has had ample amount of time to talk and share their thoughts on a wide range of topics during Adam’s visit back in Malaysia, which culminated into this episode.
Join the boys as they reconnect in person, talk about the cultural differences that they took for granted, and more.
Welcome back listeners, to the first episode of Kosong for the new year!
In this episode, it’s less structured and thematic as Adam and Jason just caught up on how their January has been. They have both been reflecting on some of their ups and downs over the past month, and generally sharing their emotional well-being. They also talked about their excitement to meet up in person in February!
So as usual, sit back, relax, and perhaps take some time to reflect on how the year has started off for yourself.
Hello listeners, and happy holidays!
Here at Kosong, Adam and I are wrapping up the year with a little trip down memory lane by reflecting on some highlights in our year. We also talk about what we are looking forward to next year; for both Kosong as well as our own personal lives.
So, come join us for one last hurrah to cap off the year. And before we begin, we’d just like to thank all of you so much for joining us on our journey thus far, and we hope to grace your playlist once again next year.
See ya!
Here’s a question you probably did not expect to hear from a podcast: do you know what your core values are? Or does the idea of “core values” conjure an image of corporations and organisations for you?
Well, in this episode, Adam and Jason share their findings on an exercise to find out their core values, but more importantly, to introspect further into what makes them tick. Join them along, and you might pick up some useful tips in understanding yourself as well!
How do you feel about the way you are spending your time? How do you define quality time with yourself? Do you take yourself out on dates? What is it that you wish you do more of?
In this episode, Adam and Jason discuss about how they have spent their time over the past year, and how they plan to spend it towards the end of the year, and beyond. They even go on a slight tangent on what might help them get in tune with their feelings, so that they can understand themselves a bit better, and hopefully, so will you.
Does life seem to be overwhelming sometimes, and you just can’t seem to prioritize what to do?
Do you get decision paralysis on how to get something started?
Well, in this episode, Adam and Jason discusses how their attempts in being overly-systematic to increase productivity can sometimes blow up in their faces, and maybe, just maybe, checking-off a to-do needn’t be that complicated.
So get your favorite note taking app open, and see if their experiences matches yours, or they are just being a couple of dweebs.
In this episode, we talk about our current YouTube obsessions; Adam shares how he is connecting his learnings of European history into a video game, and Jason with some of his favourite film photography YouTubers.
