The hardest–yet most endearing–show I've ever recorded during my second year of Oroko Radio residency. Inspired by Kokoroko's soon-to-be-released album "Tuff Times Never Last" and current situation at home (caring for a sick pet), I invited my friends to send in voice notes, to share their thoughts and express how they reassure themselves during tough times.

Voice notes in this show are conducted in Bahasa Indonesia, English and Spanish, you could find the transcripts & translations here.
