Filmmaker Shruti Rya Ganguly may be a successful producer, director, writer and perpetual student of the arts, but she will tell you that when it comes to making chai, she would fail miserably. From her childhood in Oman to shooting in her favorite location, Ethiopia, Shruti's story is one for the books (speaking of which, she just got an essay published in one). We talk about her roots and what drove her to finally come to terms with the idea of pursuing the arts as an actual career.

How about that time you interviewed someone you just met and became best friends immediately. That's what happened to us after we talked with Simmi Patel, founder and creator of Paper Samosa, a fanta...

Damn if feels good to be a podcaster. We're bbbaaaaccccckkkkkkkk!!! Nizar (@nizarbabul) and I (@amituckeredout) had to take a small break this summer so I could officially become a Arkansonian (is that a word?). In our relaunch episode, we talk about the move to this "flyover state" and how it feels to live here as a South Asian, especially during the insane political environment in which we're living now. We are also joined by two guests, Raj Suresh (@rajdoescomedy) and Shabana Kauser (@shabanakauserart) who discuss their careers, compare accents, and explain how living in this region has helped shaped their specific artforms. We're so excited to relaunch Season 1 with this #browntabletalk and are happy to be back and plugged into a headphone near you.

I don't know about you guys but I didn't realize that the Instapot could perform miracles! In this episode of Browntable Talks, we sit down with the ladies behind "Instapottin' With Poonam" and talk about it all. From how they all met to how Kinky Boots played a role in coming up with the whole idea. I even get the opportunity to jump into one of their videos and learn to make my own Instapot dish! Between the wine glasses and the random Gujurati busting out, this interview was definitely cooking! (see what I did there?)
