Ready?
What's up, Melissa?
How are you?
Hello, Joe.
We were just talking about caning and hanging in Singapore.
Hanging now.
Is that the new one?
No, it's always been.
That's how they always do it.
Caning is one of the forms of capital punishment, but they still, they actually hang for drugs.
What is Singapore like?
I've never been.
It seems like a strange place because it's relatively wealthy, right?
Yes, very much so.
And upscale and very nice, but also ruthless.
But you know what happened in my generation?
I've witnessed it go from third world to first world in my lifetime.
Really?
Yes.
Yes.
