About this episode
The episode features Jinx Yeo discussing his transition from academia to comedy and his impact on the global stage.
Season 7 is LIVE! 🎙️ We are kicking off our Tribute to SG Music Icons series with a deep dive into the entertainment arena. Meet Jinx Yeo—a man who walked away from a promising academic future to master the rhythm of the punchline. An alumnus of Singapore’s top schools, Jinx proves that being an "Asian Nerd" isn't just a persona—it’s a global brand that has conquered over 22 countries. We talk about the transition from the classroom to the comedy club and why he chose the mic over the textbook.
