What's up everybody, welcome to another episode of Yah Lah But. Your Thrive Weekly podcast where we talk about the hottest news with a touch of what, Terence?

**Terence** (0:57)
Good old humor.

**Haresh** (0:58)
Good old humor, man. It's December.

**Terence** (1:01)
Yeah.

**Haresh** (1:02)
Yeah, man. Last month for a year.

**Terence** (1:04)
Winding down for a year, man.

**Haresh** (1:06)
Winding down, I mean, not really.

**Terence** (1:09)
Wow, never felt so busy before.

**Haresh** (1:11)
Yeah, because what is happening tonight, Terence?

**Terence** (1:14)
Tonight, we are embarking on our trip, our first Yah Lah But road trip to the UK, the United Kingdom.

**Haresh** (1:21)
Woohoo! To London, London, baby. So yeah, we're going to be there till the 7th. It's going to be super interesting. But the thing that we have posted is that while we're there, we're going to be doing an actual live podcast recording for a very intimate group. And it's going to be happening on Saturday, 6th December, 3 to 5 p.m. at a location somewhere in Westminster, London.

**Terence** (1:47)
Yeah, that's right.

**Haresh** (1:47)
So I mean, it is going to be, there are very limited slots available. So if you are going to be in London, or if you are based in London and you would like to join us, you can go to our Instagram and just leave a comment on the Instagram post with the details, because we will need to select a winner. So you can tell us why we should select you. If you're not in London, I mean, you can still comment, but it will just give us more work to do.

**Terence** (2:08)
Yeah, but I mean, we will be recording that episode, literally, as something that will be released on Yah Lah But as well.

**Haresh** (2:14)
Oh yeah, yeah.

**Terence** (2:14)
So don't fret if you can't make it to London for that particular recording. It's just that you won't be able to see us in the flesh.

**Haresh** (2:23)
Yeah, it will be a regular episode where we talk about local news. So it will basically be two people from, it will be foreign interference.

**Terence** (2:29)
Yeah, but we'll stay in our lane. Don't worry.

**Haresh** (2:33)
We'll be Singaporeans abroad, talking about Singapore. But exciting.

**Terence** (2:39)
So what's the biggest thing that you need to prep before you go?

**Haresh** (2:44)
I guess just packing, which I haven't done yet. And making sure, because I mean, it's not going to be a recreational trip, it's going to be a work trip. We are going to be doing some pretty cool shit that we're going to be sharing on social media. So yeah, more like stuff that makes sure we got all the bases covered.

**Terence** (3:00)
I think the weather is probably the big one for me, because I think if we're going to be outside filming stuff, or even recording podcasts outside as well, it's going to be very different from here in Singapore.

**Haresh** (3:12)
We didn't say we want to record like how we did during GE. Then when we asked someone who will be meeting, what's the temperature like? What is it like? Maybe minus five?

**Terence** (3:22)
Single digits.

**Haresh** (3:23)
Single digits, yeah. We might be watching a football game with someone who has been on this podcast before. But yeah, interesting times.

**Terence** (3:31)
Very exciting.

**Haresh** (3:32)
Very exciting. So yeah, I mean, we'll be sharing a lot of content. It'll be just like GE, except it has nothing to do with politics, but we'll be abroad sharing a lot of Instagram stories, Reels, TikTok videos, whatever. So remember to follow us to stay on track.

**Terence** (3:47)
And we'll still be releasing three episodes a week of this podcast. So we're not taking a break by any means. In fact, if anything, it's creating more content that you probably have to follow us on Instagram and everything to be up to date with exactly what we're doing.
