Simblified

A few months back, we had intensivist Dr Nitin Arora join in and tell us what happens at an ICU, with special focus on this ruddy bug doing the rounds now.

This time he joins us back for a freewheeling conversation on Covid and its impact on the medical fraternity: From what young residents are going through right now, to what the larger impact might be. It's a wide-ranging conversation and one we think you will enjoy!

Follow Dr.Nitin Arora on Twitter: https://twitter.com/aroradrn

Add one part news, one part bad jokes, one part Wikipedia research, one part cult references from spending too much time on the internet, one part Wodehouse quotes, and one part quality puns, and you get Simblified.

A weekly podcast to help you appear smarter, to an audience that knows no less! Your four hosts - Chuck, Naren, Srikeit, and Tony attempt to deconstruct topics with humor (conditions apply). Fans of the show have described it as "fun conversations with relatable folks", "irreverent humor", "the funniest thing to come out of Malad West" and "if I give you a good review will you please let me go".

Started in 2016 as a creative outlet, Simblified now has over 200 episodes, including some live ones, and some with guests who are much smarter than the hosts. Welcome to the world of Simblified!

Recently, NASA shot up a massive telescope so that we can all figure out where we came from. The James Webb Telescope is the culmination of decades of work, and will do things that no other telescope has done before. It will apparently use fancy things like Infrared technology to look back 13 billion years (!) and perhaps even see if there's life on other planets. No pressure, JW! Join the Simblified gang as they launch themselves into this spacey topic, only for Chuck to annoy Srikeit with a selection of cosmic puns.

If you've been paying attention online, you might hear a lot of noise being made about something called web3... And NFTs... Not to mention cryptocurrencies. We tried our level best to make sense of them but decided this was too heavy a topic to leave to the feeble minds hosting the podcast, so we decided to bring on an expert - Ekalavya Bhattacharya. Eka is an entrepreneur in the web3 space, and also runs a fashion tech company. In the past, he's been heavily involved with various web ventures - from making money off squatted email IDs in school (!) to being a part of high-growth early internet companies like Contests2Win, Zapak, and heading the digital wing of MTV India. Chuck calls him one of the smartest people he knows. Recently, he's forayed into the web3 space, and he's got a lot to talk about it.

Join us for this 2-part episode where we speak with Eka about the changing landscape of the internet, how it's evolved, what NFTs / web3 really means, and what the future holds. It gets geeky, so strap in!

Well, it's the end of another year (wait, what, already?). The Simblified gang looks back at how the last 12 months have been for them, personally. That's right - no Simblification, no news, no breaking down tech jargon, none of that. It's just an unscripted, personal conversation between the 4 hosts, with some help from audience questions.

The four of us and everyone at IVM podcasts wish you a happy 2022 - may it be less 2021 than 2021.

So what is the creator economy, exactly? Is it just some fancy new term applied to something that always existed, or is it actually a new paradigm, as some VCs might say?

Our Simblified quartet gets together to talk about it, their advice for creators, examples of content that they've come across, and some ideas for content you (yes, you dear listeners!) can explore. You can thank us later.

Also, we've been told we have "new" listeners by our producer so we try very hard to get a proper intro going. Regular listeners, please forgive.
