IndoMe is a Dutch podcast about Indonesian lifestyle, made by Rolf Bacas, Marcheline Takarbessy and Aschwin Mollenaar. Every month a new episode starts with a dish from an Indonesian city or region and then moves on to travel, history and family stories. The podcast has existed since 2022.
Whether you miss Indonesia or want to get to know it, you can tune in to IndoMe every month. The trio shares their passion for the country: food, travel, history and current affairs come together in one conversation.
The fixed opening is a dish from a specific city or region, from spicy rendang to fragrant soto ayam. From there the conversation continues: travel tips, personal experiences and places you will not find in every guidebook.
Family history plays a big part. Where are the grandparents’ roots, what did they go through in Indonesia and how did they end up in the Netherlands? IndoMe offers a personal look into the shared history of Indonesia and the Netherlands. According to their own site, more than thirty episodes are online by now (November 2026).
If you want to speak the language yourself, Sambungan gives personal Bahasa Indonesia lessons, from absolute beginner to a refresher. Sambungan is on CO-1 too.
