The pop culture podcast that isn’t afraid to pop the bubble.
The media must be free and fair, uninfluenced by corporate or state interests. That's why you, the public, need to pay to keep news free.

Abhinandan: Siddharth writes. “I like the fact that you strive to learn from your diverse set of listeners which is essential to making this podcast as memorable 20-30 years hence.” Rajyasree Sen, 20-30 years hence, when people listen to this podcast, what do you think they will say?
Rajyasree: What a well informed woman she was and this fool just kept interrupting her by saying, “Oh, you have watched that also?”
Abhinandan: So, you think we’ll be alive in 20-30 years?
Rajyasree: Yeah, I think so.
Abhinandan: Okay, if you say so.
Rajyasree: I’ll look like J Lo then.
Abhinandan: I’ll still be SOLO. Get it, ’cause I’m single. Are you understanding my puns...
Rajyasree: Yeah, they’re so difficult to get, na!
Rajyasree and Abhinandan burst out laughing.
This and a whole lot of other stuff awful and awesome as Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen discuss the films Mrs Serial Killer and Extraction; Netflix series Hollywood; Shah Rukh Khan’s singing; TikTok’s new ad campaign; and the lives and works of Irrfan Khan and Rishi Kapoor.
