What happens when between the pre-programmed state of diving deep and gnawing at details and the flying high into the kaleidescope of this world, a butterfly gets into a hibernating meditative stage. Listen on...

And yes, this epsiode also has a little annoucement.

Self loving the soul can be little difficult to describe in an era when social validation is what we have got so used to. But what if one day an invisible hand decides to do that for us? Do we have a choice! Listen on...

Hello and welcome to the first episode of the second season of the Gentleman Nama, the podcast for everyday extraordinary gentlemen. And Happy New Year! Now I realize that between the last episode of the first season and this one there has been quite some time. in fact the in-between, apart from managing the existential and the mundaness of survival was spent in thoughts my own and those around, soaking up experiences and in turn weaving them into stories that we all have either experienced first hand or have crossed our head sometime. A few of them were carefully thought through and penned down narratives while a lot of them emerged as an abstract thought maybe when I was sipping my morning tea in the garden and then metamorphosed into written words. this season will be about those stories. Either ways at the end of each story I would like to leave you with a thought and would want to know your perspectives.

Happy Listening and I will await your thoughts here or on [email protected]

Today's episode is unfiltered, unedited and extempore. Once in a while let's dial down our nerves and let it flow. Reminder- one more episode to concluding season 1. Stay tuned for season 2 as I sit down with friends and allys for a conversation.

What should we talk about today? Umm…let’s talk about something that we all are perhaps aware of theoretically or in practice, some of us indulge or avoid it intentionally, several of us might be looking at it sceptically when it comes to the professional space. But all of us subconsciously give into it.

The Echo Box.

Chat GPT just texted back that is a metaphorical term used to describe an environment where a person or group's beliefs and ideas are amplified and reinforced by only being exposed to information that confirms their pre-existing views. Let me simplify, it just means you are exposed to only things that you want to hear and discuss or agree with.

So how do you manage your echo? Tell me about it, am all ears…do you discuss, debate and rationalize enough or somewhere still what you think holds right carries on...Listen on and if you have any thoughts to share, something to discuss, know that I am just an email away.

Today what I intend to talk about is a phenomenon that all us have gone through, maybe going through or in some cases snapped it already. The proverbial rubber bands. At the cost of repeating and reiterating what I have perhaps said earlier, we are all engineered for the carpet syndrome. Adopt the path of least resistance and shove rest else under the carpet. Some of us, and glad more of us are getting vocal about issues about areas of dialogue. But everything said somewhere deep down we are overwhelmed by everything around us, most of us our own selves and stretching the rubber band and stretching it thinner.

What is your rubber band looking like? Let's talk and do a status check. As your listen through, if you have any thoughts to share, something to discuss, know that I am just an email away. Reach me out at [email protected]

As men we tend to be little extreme with our gestures and forego the charms of subtility. Not to mention that while on one side we have not quite let go of old school chivalry ang graces while interacting with others, on the other side we have become a bit too much direct, a bit too much objective and way too much cut and dry with our fellow men. Add to that the entire spectrum of gender and orientation diversity within our own selves, we act tone deaf at times and at others use language, expression, humour or anything else that is just not quite it. Is there something we can do about it? Listen on...
