For those who slams vernacular schools and Chinese Independent Schools. Nigel Ng went to both and he is making Malaysian proud now. Way better than those who went to elite schools but ended up burukkan nama Negara

Agak-agak. So Malaysian. BTW, it's motivating to see a star student deviating from the conventional path and making a name for himself.

*Uncle roger is the MSG of nigel ng*
Can we have *Uncle Roger's Dad* as the next guest? Would be great to see the original Uncle Roger 😉😉😉
The little girl is adorable. She needs her own show.
I never no this guy until uncle roger blew up, my instinct at first, this dude must be Singaporean or Malaysian.. because the dialect uncle roger use sound very familiar.. in Malaysia, as Malaysia proud of u bro and all the best...

Wow he played uncle Roger's character really well, and it's nice to see the real him here, so humble. And good looking too. He looks like one of those sleepyhead in class, but turns out to be the smart one. Dalam kelas tidur je tapi bila ujian tiba2 markah dia paling tinggi hahaha Here's an idea, i think it would be great if there's a writer or a director somewhere out there start writing a sitcom or series with uncle Roger as the main character, delivering punch lines yet every episode has its own lesson to tell. Sign Nigel Ng up for the role. It'll be like having our own phua chu kang, the show many of us grew up with. I'd watch it on television every night. Pity we don't have any english sitcom series anymore like we had back then with Kopitiam. Anyhow i wish all the best to Nigel Ng, Malaysia boleh! 💕

This Podcast is nice. What Jinnyboy saying about Uncle Roger is bringing our Malaysian culture to the international level is truly touching.!!!
When I first watched uncle roger reaction video on bbc fried rice, followed by his reaction videos on Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsay, I tot he’s one of those you tubers trying very hard to use these high profiles to create his own fame, but his points r so spot on , that I kept watching his other videos and found that this guy is a legend of his own. He can literally make every normal conversation or topic into light hearted comedy so naturally. Only shortfall is there is too few videos of his work and too many reaction videos to his reaction videos 😂

I was waiting for this to happen
Aye finally. Saw this on jtv ig post. Go uncle roger go!
Mr Nigel is not banana, he knows how to speak mandarin. Some more he get the first out of 700 student in high school. A prove that good kids have good future.
My gadddd!!! Uncle Roger so down to earth and genuine! I love the content of this session so much!!! =)))
That moment when Nigel say "agak-agak". Gosh!
Nigel Ng is the whole package anyone could ask for 👌😍

Yes! Uncle Roger reminds me to normal uncles (weirdly we call them here as...'father', not own father as in not every uncles are blood related. In my place, uncle is usually for those who are younger than 'father', and father is for those around Uncle Roger's age, 40-ish?). And eventho I am annoyed with those people (they are not hilarious in any way), I can't help but keep watching and feel annoyed haha
they both my fav..
Well done Nigel. I spent 15 years in your country. I loved it. I know your school and culture. Wonderful to hear your experiences. 🥰🥰 All the very best.
Its my first time listening, watching a full podcast and its awesome. Jin is a very good host and Nigel story's is very inspiring. Kudos to both of u #agakagak #malaysiaboleh
damn, im a malay and i really love this podcast. i can relate every single thing. nice job uncle roger. tq for bringing malaysia name. keep doing what you doing.
I first saw Nigel on Comedy Central on Astro. Funny!
Almost 1am here in Malaysia.. Just checking my phone..start to sleep.. Open youtube..this video in my recommendation.. And here.. 2am..still watching.. Nice video n interview.. Such a humble and down to earth nigel.. Hope u can go higher.. N proudly introducing Malaysia...

That 'malaysia boleh' in the end, gosh nigel ng is so humble !!!

I love hearing accents of people from every place in the world. I've heard my voice but I have recorded talking and singing and I don't care for my voice LOL and to hear you speak with or without your fake accent you speak very well and I enjoy it as well as your friend here.

Rm 1.8k or 2k (if lucky) to as starting pay is the norm unless you are employed by some big firm or top5 co of your related field than the starting pay is higher about 2.8k to 3.2k. I guess after so many years the 1.8k still the same.

Hope I can see Jinnyboy collab with Nigel Ng in one video
OMG Nigel seumuran gue 😂
Hi Jin! May I know what is the title of the background music in the beginning of the show.
Although Uncle Roger's accent does come across to me as a Hongkie accent rather than Apek Petaling Jaya... but I guess that would be more familiar to western ears..
Been enjoying the Uncle Roger phenomenon of late and was genuinely curious to see an in depth interview of the creator of this character. However I must say that the interviewer hasn’t yet learned that the interview is about asking questions... not telling your own stories. I now know more about you than Nigel and that was not my goal here. Best of luck in both of your future endeavors! 🙂
