  • This platform is not to promote your products I guess.

    It should have an Indian host if it’s about India. It should be more about the basic things and not about what the other prople have achieved. I guess everyone is here to get an idea on what can be done to bring a new idea into existence but everybody on podcast is to promoted theirs product and not to explain how Indian startup works.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Frustrated corporate engineer to a master of the stage. Ankur Nigam on why Storytelling is Your Ultimate Currency.
Q: How did you teach yourself comedy then?
I started with surface-level jokes about relatable college life and gradually went deeper into personal experiences and universal emotions. I used an approach I call the LCM Theory of Comedy to tailor material to larger audiences while maintaining authenticity.
