The gang as usual decides on talking of the telecom bill, parliament function or lack thereof, the Dhankar saga, but end up doing a lot around the trailer of Main Atal Hoon, some BJP universe spinoff ideas, some more Animal talks, ask big questions like can Annamalai be a minister in Modi cabinet, also some simple-shantanu stories and of course the featured tweet of the week.

Gang talks about the film that everyone else is talking about, and what cinema means and what it says about the society. Also, Kya Meodi Ji Animal hai? We also talk of the soulless aspirations of Archies. Then we land our plane into the Tejas flight that the real alpha Tomendra Cruisodi bhai. Favorite tweet of the month features. Finally, gangs looks into the animals inside them and it becomes a random therapy session. PS- There are some audio quality issues for a few seconds in the middle

Gang got together but realized Nishant was missing so we had the very funny and very on-point with his critique of all and sundry Anurag Minus Verma @confusedvichar. We talked about the right wing influencer pandemic, how being apolitical is also political, what type of dictator does the country want and also how we examine our own prejudices, biases and how sometimes we censor ourselves as well.

Gang is on a short hiatus but fikar not, for this episode Raj sat down with the master satirist and perhaps an even better linguist Dr. Medusa @ms_medusssa on X. They talked about the challenges of doing satire in a country that often itself resembles a satire, the Chavda ailment that the BJPod boys gave Dr. Medusa, how does NASA sanskrit coding happens, the phenomenon of right wing influencers especially the women and a lot more. Tune In.

Gang gets together to ask the most important question of them all. How much work is ok work per the infosys simple murthy uncle. Also, why no talks of Qatar or RaGa Satyapal meet, but a lot of talks of Danish Kaneria. Also, they discuss Indian Roads and how to be a Roads Scholar along with what is Gita GPT. Special mention to, kya naam bataya? Bhupendra Jogi

Gang gets together and has a whole rant on the way this world cup is going and especially that game between India and them. Then they jump into the Israel and Palestine situation and how India is reacting to it. Tune in for the thoughtein.

Gang talks about the first day in the new parliament, the Modi Ji folder-folder khaali khaali folder. Also, India- Canada row and the trajectory our media and scientific temperament is sinking to.

Old timers might recognize but as part of the birthday of the Mahamanav Modi Ji we propose our version of the Modi Ji film and it is better than what the Vivek's Oberoi and Agnihotri can. It is the story of an Avatar. PS- The story, all names, characters, and incidents portrayed in this production are fictitious. No identification with actual persons (living or deceased), places, buildings, and products is intended or should be inferred. No Animals, Mothers or Cows were harmed during the re-imagining of this tale.

Raj is joined by the man, the myth, the legend Meghnad. They talk about G20, Modi Ji as a brand, what does his successes tell us about the larger public. They also talk about the future and weird hypothesis like, how would Modi Ji and Shah Ji do if they were part of the Congress Party instead.
