  • Host can be annoying sometimes. He should let the guests complete their sentences.

  • Professors from IIT, philosophers from DU, and artists from all around India come together for intellectual masturbation. And it's actaully pretty decent. Really like the host of this podcast, he drives the discussion to something meaningful and choesive, and I don't think he gets enough credit for that. Needs more female guests though. They're kind of under-represented.
