  • Brand India - Beyond the myths & numbers
    Sep 19 2024

    This is the episode that tells you what the last 75 years have really been like for India as a brand. We have been leading up to this episode all season and this is the one that ties it all together. All those Nizam of Hyderabad references, the homage to the Maharajah, the political upheaval, the companies that led Brand India and the campaigns that brought visitors in. This one is a doozy but it may help to think of it as a podcast form of We Didn't Start The Fire if Billy Joel had set it in India from 1947 till now.

  • Beedi, Bars and Betting in India
    Sep 11 2024

    Now cigarette smoking is injurious to health, don't drink and drive and definitely don't bet against the house (Oceans 11 lied, the house always wins). With that warning, let us dive into an episode that is a sinner's paradise, and a den of vices. What brands were we partial to, what spirits did we imbibe, how did we gamble away our money and what does this say about us. This is a walk down memory lane that you won't find in any history book for sure. Also, beware of sugar too!

  • Desi Girls & Brown Munde - The NRI episode
    Sep 4 2024

    This episode looks at the reasons why Indians leave or return and remain in perpetuity exalted or vilified as the diaspora. Over time Indians migrated in droves to countries as diverse as Japan, Uganda, the Caribbean and then predictably to establish Little Indias in suburbs like Southall and New Jersey in the UK and USA. They went in search of money and a better life and became a vote group to reckon with, a movie audience we roll our eyes at and a remittance powerhouse. The real flex, however, aren't the CEOs but the entrepreneurs, the rockstars and the main characters of Netflix shows. We look at all things NRI and the soft power they exert.
