Awful and Awesome Ep 359: Challengers, Succession, Mirzapur S3, The Covenant
The pop culture podcast that isn’t afraid to pop the bubble.
While discussing Mirzapur season 3:
Abhinandan: Who’s Pankaj Tripathi’s son in the show?
Rajyasree: That thin chap who looks like you.
Abhinandan: His son is a jackass. And, he also has a sister, right?
Rajaysree: No, now you’re conflating two-three shows together.
This and a whole lot of awful and awesome as Rajyasree Sen and Abhinandan Sekhri discuss the films Challengers, Guy Ritchie’s The Covenant, The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, and the third season of Mirzapur.
Abhinandan also shares his thoughts on the first and second seasons of Succession. They also talk about the media circus around the Ambani wedding.
