Hey, B*tch

Hey, B*tch! We're back in full swing for season 2! A new opening audio clip for the rest of the season, a new cover, and Yasmin back on the pod every other week?!? Oh yeah, we all won so very badly. In this episode, we talk about our "ins" and "out's" for the new year, himbos, music, technical difficulties (what's new?), and the middle ground between girlhood and gayhood. Not saying any more. Check out the episode and let us know if you have any producers we can work with this season! See you next week.

This is it. This is all we get. When Yasmin & I began this venture in June, we had some time to retrace our steps all the way back to 2021. That was when Hey, B*tch was first thought up about. Looking back at it all now, the title was an ironic play on how we used to greet each other at the start of every recording. In 2021 we didn't have a working title. We had a need to talk, and above all else, a dream. This year has been hard for Yasmin and me, and what's helped, through it all, was talking. And talk we did. 9 episodes, 7 guests in total. A whole lot of talking. It's been so great. I don't think either one of us could have asked for it to be any different. Today, in our season finale, we talk to Thaqif Aris, a dear friend who I personally got to know in the summer of 2020. We go over his journey in studying abroad, at a very structured institution like Cambridge, his ardor for fashion, maintaining relationships, growing up, and finding oneself, while being far far away. Enjoy this 2-hour long episode and we will be seeing you in the new year. Bye, B*tch!

Hey B*tch! Welcome back to another episode with us! Yes, I know we've been away for a while but I/We are not sorry about it at all. Being independent podcasters has allowed us the privilege to act on our own time and say what we want. That said, it also stifles us as for the most part, independent ventures of any kind have come to show that it's typically a one/two-person kinda show. In our torpor, we have just been resting, relaxing and mending ourselves for the betterment of the new year. Recorded on a late hot sunny afternoon at the end of August, Hey, B*tch! sat down with Alyssa Johan. In this episode, we went over her love for fashion, tips on staying secure in a long distance relationship, building a seamless and timeless wardrobe and how she's nailed the manifestation game. Thank you to all of our listeners. We couldn't have done it without you. P.S. If you hear any hiccups in the episode, it was becasue of technical difficulties (internet) as this was recorded over Zoom. See y'all next week! Bye, B*tch! Producers: Pravin Nair & Alia Soraya Special Thanks to Alyssa Johan.

With a slurry of delays and multiple planets in retrograde that impended the release of this long-awaited episode, today we have 1 hour and 37 minutes with the ever-renowned Emma Megan Khoo. She's frequently known online by BarbieMalaya - and boy! A Barbie she is. In this episode, we go over love, womanhood, working and doing everything just because you want to, running a business, and navigating hardships. All my love to Emma. You've inspired me a lot and I hope our listeners have some amazing takeaways. Episode produced by Alia Soraya & Pravin Nair Follow us on @heybtchpod for updates. See you soon!

Hey, B*tch! We're back from a self-induced hiatus. On this week's episode, we're sitting down with illustrator and artist, Nadhir Nor. A wunderkind who has breathed his distinct life and artistic style into the art scene at large in Malaysia and on a global scale, we go over his journey as a creator. Finding inspiration in music, art, and film to create, we also go over queerness and its impact and purpose for art at large. We hope you enjoy this hour-long rambling, tied together with a smile (wink, wink!) and some critical thinking. A big thank you to Nadhir for coming on the episode this week. Tune in next week for our episode with Emma Megan Khoo [FKA BarbieMalaya] at 5 P.M. Follow us on Instagram at, @heybtchpod for our weekly updates. Updates may also include one Yasmin Arisa dancing in apartment lobbies. Special thanks to Syahira Kamaruddin for steering Hey, B*tch! into its fullest possible potential. Episode Produced by Alia Soraya & Pravin Nair.

Hey, B*tch! Welcome back to the second part of Art & Its Convergences in The World, where we continue to speak with the highly talented, big-brained, Jordan Chan. In the last episode, we covered the roots of personal/individual creation and what it meant to have a community to validate your existence. In the second part of the episode, we go over the need to steer away from educational institutions, the purpose of having a community to create art in its many forms, and what we're currently indulging in. Also present in this episode is a clip from the 2016 movie, Paterson. Starring Adam Driver, this clip shows a conversation between his character and one of a young poet. Here she reads the poem, "Water Falls", as mentioned in the first part of Art & Its Convergences in The World. Credits to Amazon Studios and Jim Jarmusch. Tune in next week at 5 PM to listen to a new episode with a very special guest who's making Looops and not stopping in her tracks in wanting to do everything. That's all the clues we're giving! See you then. Bye, Bitch! 

After coming back from a "supposed" two-week hiatus (it poured on over and became three...), Hey, B*tch! is back this week with a two-parter episode. Today, in the first part of Art & Its Convergences in The World, we speak with the highly talented, big-brained, Jordan Chan. A fine artist and writer by nature, Jordan's work coalesces the many multitudes and ways in which one can convey a story. Tapping into video formats and movement to convey emotion, Jordan has been, and continues to be a great inspiration to Pravin, a nascent, budding artist themselves. In the first part of this conversation, Jordan and Pravin go over what it means to create, what kind of art we indulge in, and what it means to be a liberated artist and creator in a world deeply rooted in making money as opposed to honing and cultivating creation. Tune in next week at 5 PM, on Saturday, 26th August to listen in on the second part of this episode. Bye, Bitch!
