This episode was inspired by an incident where NASA posted an internship promotion where one of their interns took a photo with Hindu Idols on her desk. The result was a bunch of Hinduphobic twitter comments. NASA still has yet to say anything about it. Today, we talk about what our experience growing up Hindu outside of India has been like and how we learned to navigate our religion and staying true to our faith.
