266: Mughals, Modi, the Gulf!, and Usama on Colbert!
Mughals, timelines of Indian history, conversions, and Modi doing victory laps in the gulf, different aspects of Hindutva, Usama killing it on his Colbert appearance., mahabharat stuff.
These week's episode we riff hard on the Taliban for some reason: Pranav has a book of their poems, destroying musical instruments and beheading mannequins; we talk about Usama's experience with a doppleganger following him around the NY comedy club scene; our Brown of the Week is Gangaram the Crocodile (RIP); discussions around India's relationship to animals, their presence in the ten avatars of Hindusim, camels in Islam, and nature in religion; the problem of being too promiscuous, the energetic exchange and then drain, and the relationship between nymphomania (or satyriasis) and depression.
