In this episode, the gang finally tackle one of the best dinner conversations since baked bread - religion. With Ramadan, Eid, Lent, Easter, and Holi all happening within in the last few months, it seemed like a good time for the group to discuss their religious views and upbringing especially through the lens of adulthood. They discuss Islam and Hinduism mean to them specifically and respectively as well as the effect of religion on communities both local and global. Please note that the opinions shared in this episode are just that - opinions. They should not be taken as fact or advice for a religion. This podcast and their hosts do not condone bigotry in the slightest towards both religious and non-religious people.
