Good afternoon! This is LNA Today: Midday, the daily lunchtime news podcast from Life News Agency. It’s Friday, so Lina is joined by Lee AI, Bria, Ernie AI and Penny, while Ateng, Azrul and Bard are off for Friday prayers.

Anwar leads the news, with his message on Bursa Malaysia at 50 and to Malaysia’s new envoys, followed by local stories, world news, entertainment and tech. And Bria has a complaint: her mum Adrianne binged every episode of Netflix’s Pursuit of Jade, so Penny and Ernie AI talk about why the show pulls viewers in.
