Singapore is ageing — fast. By 2030, one in four Singaporeans will be 65 or older. What does that mean for our healthcare system, our social fabric, and our sense of purpose as we age? In this episode of Lens on Singapore, Claressa Monteiro sits down with Coordinating Minister for Social Policies and Minister for Health Ong Ye Kung, to ask the tough questions: Will healthcare remain affordable and accessible for everyone? Can seniors grow old with dignity, connection, and joy? What is the government doing to tackle chronic loneliness and social exclusion? And how can we all take charge of our own ageing journey? This conversation is more than policy — it’s personal. Because ageing isn’t someone else’s problem. It’s our shared future.

Click here now to access the tool > ‍ How to Raise Your Visibility on LinkedIn Without Feeling Loud or Pushy For many business owners, LinkedIn can feel overwhelming. But it can also be one of the most powerful places to connect with your dream clients and potential collaborators and grow. ‍ It's a place where thoughtful voices are heard and real opportunities can take root. ‍ So this week on The Brilliant Book Festival, I was delighted to be joined by Louise Brogan, author of Raise Your Visibility on LinkedIn. ‍ Her approach is refreshingly different: no cold messages, no forcing yourself into someone else's mould, just clear, consistent steps that help you build a presence people trust. ‍ Louise shows us that visibility isn't about being the loudest. It's about being the one who shows up with clarity, humanity, and the quiet confidence to let your expertise speak for itself. ‍‍ Prefer to WATCH instead of read? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72DfGZtzUws ‍ ‍ “The people who decide you're the expert are the people watching you show up.” – Louise Brogan ‍ Why Visibility Matters For many introverted entrepreneurs, the idea of “getting visible” online can feel daunting.  ‍ Louise reminds us: visibility doesn't mean becoming someone you're not. It means showing up consistently in a way that feels natural to you, so that when potential clients need your expertise, they already trust you. ‍ LinkedIn works because: ‍ People on the platform have resources to spend. Often corporate budgets or personal income. Most people never post. They're silent observers (“hidden buyers”) waiting for the right voice to resonate.. You need to be the clearest. ‍ You don't need to be the loudest. You need to be the clearest. ‍ As Louise puts it, showing up regularly to share insights creates an ecosystem where others decide you are the expert. ‍ ‍ Becoming Seen as an Expert One of the biggest barriers to posting on LinkedIn is the feeling of: “Who am I to say this?” Louise gently reframes this. You don't need to declare yourself “the top expert in the world.” You simply need to answer the kinds of questions your dream clients are already asking. Visibility isn't about grandeur—it's about consistency. If you regularly share your perspective, your network begins to associate you with your area of expertise. Even better, others amplify you by engaging, commenting, or tagging you in conversations. As Louise explained: “The people who decide you're the expert are the people watching you show up.” ‍ The metaphor here is a pair of rowers in a boat. If both row on the same side, you go in circles. But when you learn to pull in sync from opposite sides, you glide forward faster and straighter than you ever could alone. ‍ ‍ “One thoughtful conversation outweighs a hundred copy-paste messages. LinkedIn is about networking, not spamming.” – Louise Brogan ‍ A Favourite Story: Selling Art on LinkedIn Louise shared the story of an artist who initially thought LinkedIn wasn't “for her.” Once she began posting about her work, not only did she start selling to businesses (who wanted art for their offices), but she was also featured in Vogue and went on to collaborate with a furniture designer. ‍ Why? Because LinkedIn isn't about industries—it's about people. And people buy from people they connect with. ‍ ‍ The Quiet Power of Consistency The heart of Louise's message is that LinkedIn works when you build a trusted rhythm of presence. Not through noise. Not through hacks. But by showing up in a way that feels true. If you've ever felt hesitant about LinkedIn, let Louise's story reassure you: visibility can be both strategic and soulful. You don't have to shout. You simply need to resonate, consistently. ‍ ‍ Final Thought to Reflect On What could shift for you if you used LinkedIn as a space for building steady, human connections? ‍ Want to explore what this could look like for you? ‍Learn more about the ways you can work with Melitta Campbell to uncover your Value Sweet Spot to market, sell and grow your business confidently, and always on your terms.

This is The Beer Is Fundamental Show. This is Episode 146 and we want to welcome you once again to the NeighBeerHood where craft beer is always the talk of the town. We are your hosts, BT aka O-Beer-Wan Kenobi the Jedi Knight of craft beer and Lady T. We go to Disney a lot. We are Disney Passholders. We've been passholder since 2015. But we readily admit that we haven't even scratched the surface of what all Disney has to offer. It could be becuse we spend so much time at EPCOT. Don't let anyone tell you different. EPCOT is for adults. But I digress. We definitely do not take advantage of Disney Springs. Our introduction to The Edison is proof of that. We were able to attend the 2nd Annual Bartender's Bash at The Edison and it was so much fun. As they say, "There are no bartenders here. Only mixologists." That is an understatement. The Bartender's Bash is where eight of Central Florida's top mixologists compete with their handcrafted cocktails. Guests are able to sample and vote while indulging in perfectly paired bites prepared by The Edison. There's live entertainment and a silent auction with proceeds going to Give Kids the World Village. We did something a little different with this live show. We decided to keep the background noise. We're not sure how we feel about it. Lady T, who is usually camera ready with great pictures was totally off of her game. However, we still enjoyed ourselves. Hopefully, you enjoy the show.

BT believes that Mark Vientos is the missing spark the Mets have needed all season. He notes that while other stars like Juan Soto and Pete Alonso are consistent performers, Vientos brings a different, more infectious energy to the dugout. BT argues that Vientos's fiery play and undeniable swagger are what the team feeds off of, and his recent hot streak is no coincidence. This emotional and energetic jolt, coupled with his clutch hitting in last year's postseason, gives the Mets a real chance to turn a corner and make some noise this season.

BT argued that the American League MVP race is not the foregone conclusion many believe, especially with the surge of Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh. While acknowledging Aaron Judge's impressive numbers, BT highlighted that Raleigh has surpassed Judge in home runs and RBIs, and their team records are nearly identical. He stated that the MVP award is not just about who has the best overall stats but who is most valuable to their team, and with Raleigh's incredible offensive production from a premium defensive position, he makes a very compelling case for the award.

BT unleashed a furious rant on Mets fans who are now praising Mark Vientos, pointing out that many of them, including a caller who tried to call him out, were the same people who wanted him traded at the deadline. BT passionately defended his own position, arguing that he's always been consistent in his belief in Vientos' potential, even while acknowledging his struggles earlier in the season. He slammed the fanbase for its short-term memory and for being quick to abandon players when they're not performing, only to embrace them once their fortunes change.

BT gushed about Yankees pitcher Cam Schlittler's impressive skillset and makeup, asserting that the young pitcher looks like he belongs in the big leagues. He highlighted Schlittler's innate toughness, which he attributes to his upbringing, and his physically imposing, lanky frame. However, the true star of Schlittler's arsenal, according to BT, is his "filthy" curveball, which he compared to some of the best in baseball history. He concluded by saying that with his nasty stuff and presence on the mound, Schlittler could be a game-changer for the Yankees, especially in a potential playoff run.

BT speculated on the future of the Yankees' roster in 2026, pointing out the major decisions the front office faces regarding key players like Cody Bellinger, Trent Grisham, and promising prospects like Spencer Jones and Jasson Dominguez. He expressed a preference for retaining Bellinger, citing his elite versatility and overall value, while also raising concerns about what that would mean for the development of younger players. The discussion centered on whether the Yankees will finally break their old habits and build a cohesive, well-balanced team, or continue to make the same old mistakes that have plagued them for years.

n a fiery segment of "Bald Face Lie, Bald Face Truth," BT was put on the spot by Hoff, offering his unfiltered opinions on several key New York sports topics. He cautiously declared that both the Mets and Yankees will make the playoffs, expressing a newfound optimism in their respective wild card races. However, he was less bullish on Tommy DeVito's future, calling it a "bald faced lie" that the fan-favorite quarterback will suit up for a New York team this season. The most surprising take came with the Jets and Giants, as BT was forced to admit that while he's hopeful for a better season, he couldn't in good conscience predict either team would have more than two and a half wins by Week 6.

BT "congratulated" the newly engaged Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce in the only way he knows how: by expressing his complete and total apathy for the celebrity couple. He dismissed the news as inconsequential, complaining that their relationship has already received far too much attention and will only get worse now that they're engaged. BT's fiery reaction was a mix of annoyance at the pop culture "takeover" of the NFL and a firm belief that the celebrity couple's future will end in either divorce or a fake relationship.

Brendan Tierney is joined by actor and die-hard Yankees fan Nick Turturro, who vents his frustration over the team's ongoing struggles. Turturro, a lifelong fan who remembers the team's lean years, feels the current organization has lost its winning mentality and has become a "Disneyland" where on-field performance is secondary to business and fan consumption. He and BT agree that the team lacks "dogs" and a sense of accountability, and he wishes players and coaches would show more rage and frustration over their poor play.

In a fiery segment, BT dismisses the breaking news of Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's engagement with a sarcastic and apathetic response, stating he couldn't care less. He quickly pivots back to what truly matters to him—the Yankees' ongoing struggles—and is joined by a frustrated Nick Turturro. Turturro, an actor and lifelong Yankee fan, echoes BT's sentiments, expressing a shared sense of resignation and emotional exhaustion with the team. Their conversation is a cathartic release for both, as they dissect the team's philosophical issues, lack of accountability, and inability to win without a home run, all while the celebrity gossip that captivates the nation fails to move them.

BT opened with a fiery segment, tackling the AL MVP race by arguing that Aaron Judge's award isn't a foregone conclusion, especially with Cal Raleigh's scorching performance. He then turned his attention to the Yankees' 2025 outlook, questioning their long-term roster construction and whether they're setting themselves up for success. Finally, in his "Bald Faced Lie, Bald Faced Truth" segment, BT delivered a blistering set of predictions, asserting that it's a bald-faced truth that the Mets and Yankees will both make the playoffs, but a bald-faced lie that both the Jets and Giants will have at least three wins by Week 6.

BT argues that Mark Vientos's recent surge is the key to the Mets' success, highlighting how his on-field energy and clutch hitting have given the team a crucial "different feel." He criticizes the fans who wanted to trade Vientos at the deadline and praises the Mets' front office for holding on to him. BT believes that Vientos, along with the pitching of Cam Schlittler, provides a legitimate reason for optimism and makes the Mets a dangerous team heading into the postseason.

In this segment, BT dives into the Mets' recent win, crediting the infectious energy of a hot-hitting Mark Vientos for sparking the team. He also breaks down the compelling AL MVP race between Aaron Judge and Seattle's Cal Raleigh, arguing that Raleigh's monster home run numbers as a catcher make a strong case for him. The discussion broadens to include the Yankees' long-term outlook for 2026, the potential engagement of Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift, and a passionate conversation with actor Nick Turturro about the state of the Yankees.

BT tore into the Yankees for finally benching Anthony Volpe, calling it a long-overdue move that highlights the team's season-long mismanagement. He argued that the decision, while correct, is "too little, too late" and a reflection of the team's overall lack of leadership and accountability. According to BT, the Yankees' willingness to give Volpe "too much rope" and their failure to make timely, performance-based changes are symptomatic of a deeper, more chronic problem. He lamented that the team is essentially playing out a predictable, boring script that has sucked the life out of the fanbase.

BT ripped into the Yankees for their abysmal series against the Boston Red Sox, arguing that the team has no heart, grit, or toughness. He proclaimed that the days of opponents fearing the Yankees are long gone, replaced by a "Bronx Country Club" mentality. BT expressed his frustration with the team's reliance on home runs and their overall lack of competitive spirit, pointing out that players show no outward emotion or frustration after losses. He concluded by saying the Yankees have become a predictable, uninspired, and lifeless team that has drained him of his passion.

BT and former Jets great Nick Mangold agreed on the major issue plaguing the team: a fundamental lack of leadership and accountability. Mangold explained that the constant player turnover and absence of long-tenured veterans has prevented the team from building a winning culture. He praised new coach Aaron Glenn for emphasizing that the players themselves must drive the team's success, a stark contrast to previous regimes. BT echoed the sentiment, highlighting the team's chronic penalty problem as a clear symptom of their lack of attention to detail and discipline.

BT opened his show with a fiery monologue about the death of Yankee tradition, a topic that resonated deeply with his callers. Referencing John's call and the famous "If George were still here..." line, BT argued that while he normally avoids this trope, in this case, it's undeniably true that the team's winning spirit and accountability have been replaced by a "soulless" reliance on analytics and a fear of making waves. He lambasted the current ownership and front office for running the team into the ground, stating they've lost sight of the core values that once made the Yankees the most feared and respected franchise in all of sports.

BT and Hoff dissected the Mets' frustrating weekend in Atlanta, with Hoff expressing deep dissatisfaction despite the team winning two out of three games. His anger stemmed from the feeling that the Mets squandered a chance to sweep the series and make a definitive statement. Hoff criticized the bullpen, specifically mentioning the struggles of Ryan Helsley and Reed Garrett, and slammed manager Carlos Mendoza for a lack of "feel" in key moments. He argued that the team's lingering issues with pitching and Pete Alonso's inconsistent play are signs of a flawed roster that will ultimately prevent them from making a deep postseason run.

In a multifaceted rant, BT unloaded on the Yankees for their lack of "heart" and "soul," arguing that their indifferent play is turning fan frustration into dangerous apathy. He juxtaposed their struggles with the Jets' newfound accountability under new leadership and the Mets' encouraging weekend against the Braves, highlighting the stark difference in team culture. The segment was also punctuated by a fiery debate with Hoff about the Mets' performance, a fiery critique of the Cleveland Browns, and a self-deprecating yet hilarious anecdote about a wiffle ball game with Hoff's seven-year-old son, demonstrating the full range of BT's passionate, no-holds-barred commentary.

BT erupted in frustration over the Yankees' lackluster play, calling the team "poodles" and arguing that they lack the heart and grit of past championship squads. He dismissed their most recent win as a one-off powered by home runs, calling the team's reliance on the long ball a "stale" and "predictable" script. BT expressed his exasperation with the team's ongoing struggles, which have resulted in three consecutive sub-.500 months. While he acknowledged the benching of Anthony Volpe as a step in the right direction, he emphasized that it's just one minor change and doesn't address the deep-rooted issues of a roster filled with "transient" players and a team culture that lacks accountability.

BT opened up 11am hour by expressing some optimism for the Mets after their good weekend against the Braves, noting how young players like Vientos and Baty are finally stepping up. He then pivoted to his own personal disaster—his fantasy football team, which he's already given up on after a "D+" grade from his friend who drafted for him. Finally, he launched a fiery critique of the Cleveland Browns, accusing them of "sabotaging" rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders during a preseason game to avoid public pressure, calling them "the worst franchise in all of sports."

In a passionate monologue, BT eviscerated the Yankees, not for their on-field mistakes, but for what he sees as a deep-seated lack of "heart," "soul," and "grit." He argues that the team's struggles go beyond bad baseball and are rooted in an unacceptable indifference to losing. BT believes this has led the fanbase from anger to a more dangerous state of apathy. The segment then transitions to a more optimistic tone as former Jet Nick Mangold calls in to talk about the Jets, providing a stark contrast to the Yankees' woes and discussing the new leadership under Aaron Glenn, which he believes is focused on restoring accountability and a winning culture.

Hoff expressed his frustration with the Mets' latest loss to the Braves, calling out the bullpen and Carlos Mendoza's in-game management. BT then shifted his focus to the Yankees, arguing that Anthony Volpe has not earned the right to be told he's playing every day, and that the team's willingness to give him that assurance is indicative of a larger organizational problem. The segment also featured a humorous moment where BT revealed he crushed a wiffle ball off of Hoff's seven-year-old son, much to Hoff's dismay, and took a call from a listener who canceled their subscription to the MLB app out of frustration with the Yankees' "mediocrity."

BT opened his show by recapping the Mets' mixed weekend in Atlanta, acknowledging the team's "house of horrors" but praising their overall performance. He highlighted the promise shown by young players like Mark Vientos and Brett Baty, and the strong start from rookie pitcher Brandon McLean. While frustrated by the bullpen's collapse in the final game that cost them a sweep, BT argued that the Mets still have more to be optimistic about than the Yankees. He stressed that the team's playoff hopes now hinge on the performance of their next two starters, Senga and Manaea, who need to "step up" and stabilize the rotation.

BT's "Call of the Day" highlighted a major issue with the current Yankees roster: a complete lack of chemistry and shared identity. The caller likened the team to a "pickup team," a transient group of players who are more focused on their individual stats and future contracts than on building a winning culture. BT agreed with the caller's assessment, suggesting that the constant turnover and wholesale changes at the trade deadline have resulted in a team that is just a collection of mercenaries, lacking the passion and emotional investment that once defined the Yankees. He believes this is a fundamental flaw that will continue to hold the team back from achieving its ultimate goal of a championship.

BT erupted in frustration over the Cleveland Browns' handling of rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders. He detailed how the team, with their historically inept track record, refused to let the promising young signal-caller finish a two-minute drill in a preseason game. Instead, they inexplicably put in Tyler Huntley, a player they subsequently cut the very next day. To BT, this was not a simple coaching decision but a cowardly act driven by a fear of public sentiment. He argued that the Browns were so worried about Sanders performing well and generating fan pressure for him to start that they chose to stunt his development, proving once again they are the worst-run franchise in sports.

In a moment of candid frustration, BT confessed his annual fantasy football league draft resulted in another team he's sure to abandon. He explained he had to rely on a friend to draft for him due to a social conflict, and the result was a disastrous "D+" rated team that he predicts will fail within weeks. BT admitted to the familiar cycle of making one or two futile waiver wire moves before ultimately giving up on the team, likening his predictable failure to the Yankees' own disappointing and predictable season.
