Terence Chia (L) and Haresh Tilani (R) interview Singaporean opposition politicians for their podcast AFP In a tiny studio, a former Wall Street banker and an ex-aviation executive are doing what critics say is lacking in Singapore's tightly managed media landscape -- giving opposition politicians unfiltered airtime ahead of an upcoming election. The popular podcast Yah Lah But -- a colloquial Singlish way of saying "Yes, but" -- promises "the most uncensored conversations and interviews from the much-censored country of Singapore", according to its YouTube description. The show is part of a growing wave of podcasts deep-diving into the affluent city-state's politics, providing alternative coverage of the May 3 polls.
