The Death of the Mother Tongue
In this thought-provoking episode of 10 Minutes Drill, we delve into a topic that resonates deeply with our cultural identity: The Death of the Mother Tongue.
Join me, Ace, as I share a fascinating encounter with a millionaire who taught me the value of curiosity and general knowledge—skills that often go unnoticed but are essential for meaningful conversations, especially with those from different backgrounds. He emphasized the importance of being able to engage in small talk about everything from yachts to wine, and it inspired me to broaden my own interests.
This episode starts with a brilliant question from our listener, Somtia. In answering, I reflect on a memorable Christmas visit in 2022 to my friend’s home, where I observed a curious language dynamic among their twins, Buri and Beri. This led me to ponder the crucial role mother tongues play in communication, tradition, and connection.
But it’s not all doom and gloom! I believe in the power of adaptability and the potential for our children to become polyglots, embracing languages that serve them best in their environments.
Tune in as I share my insights and challenge you to consider the implications of this linguistic evolution. Will we fight to preserve our mother tongues, or will they fade into oblivion?

On this episode, we shall be analyzing the popular series SQUID Game --with the intention of answering the questions: What is it that those with all the money in the world and those with no money in the world both have in common?
Under what conditions can a human being get motivated to do bad things?
What strategy did a Korean series squid game use to became number 1 not only in Korea but in the entire world?
I first heard about it on twitter. I saw two influencers that I respect tweeting about it: basically, inviting their followers to watch it. When I moved over to my trending tab, I saw SQUID Game as most trending. Its hashtags had millions of tweets. Hundreds of millions of comments. I couldn’t believe it. The show is a hot topic across every social media platform, on TikTok alone the hashtag "#SquidGame" has been viewed more than 22.8 billion times. Almost triple the worlds population. Isn’t that crazy? How come?
Flix Patrol, a website that tracks streaming statistics for the top platforms in the world, reported that "Squid Game" is the No. 1 show in more than 90 countries, including the U.S., the United Kingdom and South Korea.
What intrigued me the more is that this series did no promo. They just aired and by means of word of mouth, they are at the top.
How could a Korean series become the most watched Netflix series of all time?
How could a movie having nothing to do with utopia, romance, vengeance, but rather evil, cruelty and dystopia became number 1.

How familiar are you with your health? Do you know where you stand with even the most general health questions? Do you know your baselines?
It's never too early to start thinking about keeping yourself healthy, everyone needs to have a sit-down conversation and determine how much they know about their health."
The truth is that We can't choose our parents and we can't alter our genetics, but we can certainly identify ways of keeping ourselves healthier.
But to keep ourselves healthy there are a series of habits, tactics, routines and strategies that we need to implement. That is why on this episode we had with us an expert on these topics.
He is Mr NGONG LANGHA Andy Jones. A popular health educator and populariser. On his timeline is written: I educate you about your health. With this information, you can live healthier and cut health spending.

The question, and the quandary of ''Precisely what is love?" is not new. It is one that has been given serious consideration throughout the ages by cerebral heavyweights like Plato, Sigmund Freud, and Charlie Brown.
Ezdi Pinza once joked saying what is love? Who can explain it? Who can tell you why? and his response was: 'Fools give you reasons. Wise men never try".
Well, that might have been a warning for all but, recently, many wise men and women have tried, and succeeded. And today, we hope to try and succeed in trying to tackle the difficult topics of love and relationships, when to start one and when to refrain from one.
This episode was bilingual in French and English.

There is a day when we were born. From that day, we became a record, a record that produces. The world is an archives collection; items that are important now and maybe important tomorrow.
Look at our country, for example, we don’t value things with historic significance. But we end up paying the price of that negligence – financially and historically.
It has to end, we need to win the war on archives preservation. We need to be able to find the right information, at the right time, to take the right decision.
Our guest today is Mr Essaia TCHINSABE. An archivist from the MINEPIA with 10 years of working experience with Ministeries and private institutions curb the ignorance about archives. To build the right environment for documents and to save them for the future generation. We can learn a lot from him.

Homelessness is a social problem— a problem that affects everyone, is negative, can be solved and should be solved.
Many solutions have been provided for this pandemic and most of them have fallen short when tested in the real world. But as if that was not enough, NM House said they will solve this problem. Not in 100 years, or 50 years but in 16 years.
That is a very bold claim that every untold listen after getting must take a pause and ask: WAIT!WHAT?
That’s what we did throughout the show. I am still not convinced that NM House is the solution to this pandemic, but I must confess he made me look at the problem from another angle.
This is probably one of many such conversations, so enjoy.
