Smita Prakash's ANI podcast is a fantastic listen. Her conversations are consistently informative and often surprisingly fun, like the memorable "Samosa Caucus" episode. I always come away with valuable insights. Highly recommended for anyone seeking engaging and enlightening discussions especially if it regarding geo politics!
Poor episode. Not knowing the difference between neutralizing and murder, rpg and grenade... Points to very poor meeting prep, if any at all. Made it feel like a shallow attempt at a very serious topic. Please sharpen your pencils before the paper is distributed.
Really love the way things are responded to and responsible journalism at its best.
Dear Smita, I keep waiting to hear you conversing with eminent guests exploring deep insights. For me, It’s 1 hour one way travelling and what could be best utilisation than listening you. Amazing stuff.
Smita Aunty is known for biased views, opinions & coded favoritism. She considers India & Kashmir differently. She’s left leaning who asks questions of the left but the fails to ask the right questions to the left wingers. Advocates & defends the left very often
