SINGAPORE - Catch up with the hottest topics on The Straits Times' new weekday talk show.

The Big Story, broadcast every weekday at 5.30pm on Facebook and YouTube, will have reporters and senior editors discussing the top stories of the day, in the heart of the newsroom.

In Monday's (May 13) episode, journalist Melissa Heng talks about the trend of young working professionals who turn to co-living companies instead of the traditional rental market for their housing needs. Senior education correspondent Sandra Davie also shares which findings from The Straits Times and Singapore University of Social Sciences survey on 19-year-olds surprised her.

The Big Story debuted on May 6.

Topics covered in the first few episodes included Pakatan Harapan's report card, top picks from the Singapore International Festival of Arts: Singular Screens, points made by several MPs on the issue of protection against sexual misconduct on campus, and the Committee of Inquiry's findings into the death of actor Aloysius Pang.
