Awful and Awesome Ep 407: Everybody loves Sohrab Handa, Anaconda
The pop culture podcast that isn’t afraid to pop the bubble.
While discussing the film Anaconda:
Rajyasree : Do you believe there's an anaconda? There are anacondas out there who are so big?
Abhinandan: Possible. I mean, I don’t know.
Rajyasree: Do you believe in the Loch Ness Monster?
Abhinandan: No.
Rajyasree: Do you believe in Yeti?
Abhinandan: No.
Rajyasree: You don’t believe in anything, but you believe in God? Yeti has been seen. Loch Ness Monster has been seen. The anaconda has been seen.
Abhinandan: God has been seen.
Rajyasree: Every day you are seeing an embodiment of a goddess…But that’s a different matter altogether. Bengali goddess.
Abhinandan: Rajyasree Sen, if you were a man.
Rajyasree: You’d hit me. What would you do? You would hit me. That’s the only thing that’s maybe stopping you.
