🚨🚨🚨 New episode alert 🚨🚨🚨

We bring you this episode from the Vault. 🔐

Recorded back in November (when we were hoping to be more regular with releases, ouch), this Happy Hour sesh is a chill catch-up discussing all the things we consumed while we were AWOL (dealing with life in a capitalist society).

We bounce from sports to books to TV to movies to concerts, as The Football Club Supporters’ Support Group reconvenes, Akshansh joins a Book Club with some neighbourhood rapscallions, Amey finds Past Lives underwhelming, Akshansh loses his (Satyajit) Ray virginity, and old man Amey yells at cloud about unruly Gen-Z behaviour.

This is a chonky one with lots to chew on, so buckle up!

We talk about the next big Apple TV+ hit, "Severance" with one of our good friends, Ravitej Singh Rekhi, the brains behind on Instagram.

🚨🚨🚨 New Episode Alert 🚨🚨🚨

In this episode, we welcome our friend Pranit Sahni onto the pod to talk about some old classics by the legendary Billy Wilder. And if you notice some sound issues on this one, we did too, bear with us!

We talk about a cautionary tale on insurance fraud in "Double Indemnity", then there is the Marilyn Monroe starrer "Some Like It Hot" (fun fact: Tony Curtis is the father of recent Oscar winner Jaime Lee Curtis) , and lastly we end on a rather depresso note (typical, right?) talking about Jack Lemmon in "The Apartment".
