In this bonus episode of The Rishi Report, I sit down with Samuel Lee—yes, the guy behind some of the most-viewed moments from Singapore’s General Election 2025, and formerly from the PPP. On the internet, it’s easy to reduce someone to a meme, a clip, a punchline. But I wanted to do what I always try to do on this show: go beyond the viral moment and figure out who the person actually is when the comments section isn’t writing the script. We talk about what it’s like to be “that candidate” everyone has an opinion on, how online attention can distort real political conversations, and whether there’s genuinely more than meets the eye. The big question running through the episode is simple: can Samuel bring about the change he says he wants to see in Singapore—and what does “change” even mean when you’re operating inside a system that people already feel strongly about? It’s still news comedy, so yes, we have laughs—but it’s also one of those chats where you leave with a more human picture than what the algorithm served you.
