Project Mindy

Indra from Family Karma Kast is back to discuss Episode 3 of "Never Have I Ever"! Because we're reality tv lovers, we compare the show to Family Karma and the Real Housewives of New York & relive our nerdy high school past.

Lakshmi and Asha of "The Lakshmi and Asha Show" newsletter join me to discuss Episode 2! We analyze polio jokes, Holocaust assignments, and trademark Mindy Kaling humor. 

Proma joins me to discuss the series premiere of "Never Have I Ever"! We discuss Devi's honesty talking to Hindu gods, slut shaming in our youth, and drool over Sendhil "Smokeshow" Ramamurthy.

Indra from Family Karma Kast joins me to discuss Seth Rogen's appearance as Mindy's teenage crush in "The One That Got Away"! We discuss whether Seth Rogen's character was really in the army, Jew Camp, and why Ho-Hos still exist in "The Mindy Project" world. 

Taxi TV ads are not as well-known in the age of ride sharing but Pooja and I wish we could watch Dr. Mindy's Minute. We wonder why Mindy dressed as a muppet for her health segments, decide Danny had a previous experience with local news, and brainstorm a name for Dr. Pooja's future TV ads. And Adriana from The Sopranos is Mindy's patient!

Dr. Pooja joins me again to break down Mindy's appointment with her coworker/frenemy/secret crush Danny. Will Danny get to first base and how does Mindy Lahiri afford her apartment on a woman's salary?

BJ NOVAK IS HERE! Mindy starts dating Jamie (played by BJ), who has a suspiciously close best friend Lucy. Radhika and I wonder how anyone in New York could like visiting the Empire State Building, share our BJ/Mindy hopes, and enjoy the softer side of Danny. Count the "When Harry Met Sally" references with us! 

Mindy decides to hook up with Midwife Brendan in Episode 12 "Hooking Up Is Hard" My friend Radhika joins me to puzzle over this new version of Mindy who doesn't understand friends with benefits. Allison "Eyepatch" Williams guest stars as Danny's new girlfriend who clashes with his grumpy old man vibe. 

My friend Munia joins me again to give her mom perspective on "Bunk Bed" featuring Mindy's relationship with her goddaughter (BFF Gwen's daughter, Riley). Munia shares how having kids affected her relationship with single friends and we both wish we had a Morgan to fix things around our house. Allison Williams guest stars as Danny's new love interest who somehow looks beautiful even with an eye patch. Would you buy a bunk bed for your friend's kid? 

Mashable writer & TV aficionado Proma Khosla joins me to discuss Episode 10 of "The Mindy Project" featuring Mindy Lahiri's brother, Rishi, an aspiring rapper played by Utkarsh Ambudkar. Proma corrects the pronunciation of Rishi's name and I read the gross lyrics Mindy sings to support her brother. Do you think RIshi should drop out of college to pursue his dream?
