Here's a quick bonus episode for you this week, as Erin was tasked with putting together a panel discussion on Bollywood podcasting for this year's inaugural YEGPodFest.

She reached out to Asim Burney (Khandaan Podcast, Upodcast), Manish Mathur (It Pod To Be You, Queer and Now) and Ankur Desai (Parde Ke Peeche) to find out their thoughts about Bollywood podcasting in general, and specifically why Hindi cinema criticism is so underrepresented in podcasting.

To check out the video version of the discussion, check it out here at the Khandaan Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FGnv3jNOw8
