“In (not so) short, I wish the topics discussed focused more on South Asian specific issues (caste, colorism, taboos, religious, ethnic and cultural divides within our community, etc).
The topics often lean towards issues faced by brown people within the entertainment industry, which I guess makes sense based on the hosts.
Critiques: I wish Akash actually engaged in the conversations more often in an intelligent way vs making remarks like he doesn't want to be there. Also he's often made ignorant remarks that perpetuate negative things within our community, with the defense that comedians can say anything, but that only works when the comments are actually funny.
Arjun is often tangential but makes passionate and insightful comments.
Also, GET SOME GOOD MICS YALL!! The sound is alllll over the place!
Anyway, I'm here for any brown person doing their thing so I'll always be a supportive listener✊🏽
Sincerely,
A "dark skinned South Indian" that's lighter than Akash. Check yourself boo. #bloop”
