  • I Graduated

    In this episode, we talk about how extremely ecstatic I am about the fact that I have finally graduated, Alhamdulillah. I also share some memories from my pre-university, teenage era. 

    Since university admissions are just around the corner, I thought I should also share some tidbits and suggestions for kids currently going through the process of applying to universities, and figuring out their career paths, and what they can do to make a more informed decision about their futures. 

    This is just the start to a much bigger conversation.

  • Timepass

    In this episode, we talk about 'Liquid Bhindi' and how it essentially gave my life a whole new meaning. I also talk about a little adventure I went on, during this lockdown (I can be kewl like that sometimes).

  • Green Tea

    In this episode, we talk about my love for Green Tea. That was sarcasm by the way, in case you thought I was actually serious.

    Since our FYP deadline is approaching, unfortunately I was unable to produce a proper full length episode this week, what with all the time I don't have.

    So yeah, have fun listening to me talk about Green Tea.

  • Self-Reflection

    In this episode, we talk about racism, in light of the recent ongoing protests against the murder of George Floyd. I also talk about the issue of colorism in the Pakistani context.  

    I have tried my best to shed light on this issue as comprehensively as I knew how to, but if you feel like I missed a point, or said something wrong, please do correct me, as I am still learning, and still in the process of educating myself.  

    In hopes of a better tomorrow.

  • Ramble

    In this episode, we talk about how I first started non-linear editing, and the first two projects (trailers) that I ever made, which I seriously think were Oscar-worthy.

    We also talk about my new healthy lifestyle, and how the cancellation of Constantine absolutely shattered my heart (it's okay, I'm fine now). 

    I ramble, basically.

    In this episode, we have an in-depth discussion about why TikTok is considered so controversial in our society, and what exactly is the reason behind its stigmatization.

  • Dramas

    In this episode, we have an in-depth discussion about Pakistani dramas, their strengths and weaknesses, and the affect that international content like Ertugrul Ghazi, may have on our drama industry.  

    We also talk about how Kylie Jenner is no longer a billionaire, and how shocked and utterly devastated I am about this sudden revelation.   

    And then I have a really long and unnecessary ramble sesh for absolutely no reason, except that I can.  

    We basically 'try' to have a fun time.
