In the Catch all 22 episode of Leftover Lasagne, Nitin and Tony throw back to their previous avatar - as talkshow hosts who discuss some of the amusing news from around the world.
Join our intrepid explorers along the queues to Tirupati, Coldplay, Wimbledon, and more. We wade into the cognitive dissonance of Hanumankind, and a BJP supporter in an immigration queue, and discuss the correct way to hack a PDF - this is for you Nawaz Sharif!
We feel this podcast has veered into far more serious, philosophical and ... dare we say... performative territory than we'd have liked. Episode 21 is an attempt to get back to our comfort zone - being silly.
From cryptic shower controls, to inexplicably slow traffic, Tony and Nitin torture each other with their favourite irks. Identify with this list of things that bug us? Drop us a line @knittins and @notytony on Twitter, or leave a comment on our Youtube page!
Evolution is a contest between life and nature, and between one species and other species. By subjugating nature and moving to the top of the food chain, have human beings found a cheat code out of the contest?
From Olympics to Ozempic, from philanthropy to philosophy, this episode takes you on a Blinkist you will miss mishit ride through specious speakeasy pronouncements on the human condition. Strap in for the mental floss.

In this catchall episode of Leftover Lasagne, Nitin and Tony ponder about the meaning of life. How do we like our coffee and eggs? What does the corporate ladder mean? Who do we look up to? And most importantly - what picture of us would we want other people to remember us by after we're gone?
Our intrepid duo tackle these tough questions with zero expertise and full confidence. Hop on!
Imane Khelif's Olympic story got us thinking and we spread our net far and wide this time as we waded headlong into the wildly messy topic of gender.
Why do the Olympic games perform a Fosbury Flopshow of a manoeuvre to come up with an arbitrary demarcation separating male from female? And that, at a period in history when we also know that gender is a continuum and not a binary construct? Why do men (and in general, people) not follow women's sport nearly as fervently as they do men's sport? Does the same preferentialism apply to the performing arts in general? Do men really care about women, and in fact, do they even want to?
This is a topic that deserves hours and hours of discourse, by people with a lot more knowledge and perspective that your two leftover lasagnists, but when did we ever let that stop us?
Do tell us what you think of this episode; We are @notytony and @knittins on both Twitter and Instagram. Do share this episode with a friend, preferably from the opposite gender... No scratch that - Do share this episode with a friend, who lies far away from where you do on the gender spectrum.
What's the distinction between nationalism and patriotism? Does having words in your national anthem make you more likely to win at football? What does the Delhi metro have in common with the Euro zone? Aren't nurses bigger heroes than armymen? Join Tony and Nitin as they take the scenic route past Kamala Harris and Kamal Haasan, past Donald Trump and Saul Goodman, past Simbu and Mohanlal... All in an effort to find out whether questioning the people in power makes us anti-national.

If smart people are susceptible to believing falsehoods and half-truths, how do we find a way to make better decisions? Nitin and Tony explore how thinking in bets can help challenge many of our biases, and how we can grow up to be a little better every day.
Also, a new challenged emerges for the title of "whiskey honey voice".

On the 4 month mark of Leftover Lasagne, Nitin and Tony explore the concept of merit. We talk about our own progression on the understanding of merit, privilege, the Ovarian lottery, and what ideal societies could look like.
