“Follow your passion.” “Hustle harder.” “Manifest it.”

It all sounds empowering. It all sounds bold. It all sounds like success is just one motivational quote away.

But what if the advice everyone repeats is the very thing keeping people stuck?

In this episode of This with Krish, we break down the most overrated advice in modern culture and replace hype with truth. We talk about discipline over emotion, strategy over hustle culture, execution over manifestation, and responsibility over empty positivity.

This is not anti-dream. It is anti-delusion.

We’ve officially evolved into THIS NEWSROOM — but don’t worry, This with Krish isn’t going anywhere. Same show. Bigger platform. Stronger voice.

In this episode, we break down the real impact of social media on children’s mental health. From rising anxiety and depression rates to the major lawsuits involving Mark Zuckerberg and Meta — including the Bell case — we explore the legal, cultural, and parental responsibility sides of this debate.

Is social media harming kids? Are tech companies responsible? Should Apple be the gatekeeper? What are other countries doing about it? And most importantly — what can parents actually do?

This is not a panic episode. It’s not anti-tech. It’s a balanced, factual, sharp conversation about how we protect the next generation without overreacting or pretending nothing is happening.

The digital world isn’t going away. So how do we raise strong kids inside it?

GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound are doing more than helping people lose weight — they’re reshaping America.

In this episode of This with Krish, we break down what GLP-1 actually is, why prescriptions are skyrocketing, how the administration pushed for price reductions, what RFK and the MAHA movement think about it, and how these medications are impacting everything from the food industry to airlines.

We also share a personal story about how America’s global reputation for excess is shifting in real time — and what that means for our future.

Is this a health revolution… or a pharmaceutical shortcut?

Yesterday we lost James Van Der Beek after a more than two-year battle with Stage 3 colorectal cancer.

For many of us, he was Dawson from Dawson's Creek. He was “Mox” from Varsity Blues. He was part of our late 90s and early 2000s coming-of-age story. But in his final years, he became something even more powerful — a public example of faith, fatherhood, and courage in the face of illness.

In this episode of This with Krish, we remember his career, reflect on his very public battle with Stage 3 colorectal cancer, and have a serious conversation about a sobering reality:

Colorectal cancer is now the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in adults under 50 in the United States.

While overall cancer deaths have declined in younger adults, colorectal cancer deaths have been rising by approximately 1% per year since 2005. For men under 50, it is now the number one cancer killer. For women under 50, it is the second leading cause. Across the general population, it remains the second leading cause of cancer death overall.

We talk about: • His legacy and cultural impact • His openness about diagnosis and treatment • Faith and surrender in suffering • Why screening guidelines have changed • Why younger adults must take symptoms seriously

If you are under 50, this episode is especially important.

Colorectal Cancer Screening & Resources:

American Cancer Society – Screening Guidelines https://www.cancer.org/cancer/colon-rectal-cancer/detection-diagnosis-staging/screening-guidelines.html

CDC – Colorectal Cancer Basics & Prevention https://www.cdc.gov/cancer/colorectal/

National Cancer Institute – Colon and Rectal Cancer Information https://www.cancer.gov/types/colorectal

Colorectal Cancer Alliance https://www.ccalliance.org/

If you are 45 or older, talk to your doctor about screening. If you have symptoms such as persistent abdominal pain, blood in your stool, unexplained fatigue, or changes in bowel habits — do not ignore them.

This episode is about remembrance — but it is also about awareness.

In this This with Krish deep-dive, we cut through the noise on the Super Bowl LX halftime show controversy — BAD BUNNY vs. the TPUSA All-American Halftime. What really happened, why the internet lost its mind, and how the cultural outrage reveals more about us than the performances themselves.

We unpack: 🔥 Bad Bunny’s historic halftime performance and why calling him “not American” is WRONG (Puerto Ricans have been U.S. citizens since 1917). 🔥 The counter-show by Turning Point USA with Kid Rock, the claim of millions of streams, and the real viewership numbers compared to the 135 million+ who watched the Super Bowl. 🔥 My own personal Instagram exchange with someone who thought the article (posted before the game) was a joke — and what that says about social media discourse. 🔥 Bipartisan analysis of why the backlash happened, how media and identity politics amplify outrage, and how to think for yourself. ✨ Plus… a sneak teaser for an upcoming This with Krish contest!

If you’re a parent, teacher, or caregiver navigating uncertainty, this episode is for you.

This episode of This with Krish is one of the most personal yet.

As a daddy-daughter dance approaches later this month, Krish reflects on what it truly means to show up as a father—especially during his third year taking his three-and-a-half-year-old daughter to the dance, the first one he believes she’ll truly remember. What starts as excitement about dresses, dance floors, and even arriving in the sports car with the top down turns into a deeper conversation about presence, faith, psychology, and the lifelong impact emotionally present fathers have on their daughters.

This episode weaves humor, real-life dad moments, research-backed insights, and faith-based reflection into a powerful reminder that legacy isn’t built in grand gestures—it’s built in small moments that shape identity, confidence, and worth. From the origins of the daddy-daughter dance to the lessons daughters absorb without a single lecture, this is an honest conversation about love, leadership, and what our kids carry with them long after the music stops.

Before diving in, make sure you listen to Episode 85, where Shannon Dhokia took over the show and absolutely crushed it. Her perspective, heart, and honesty made it a special episode you don’t want to miss: 👉 https://youtu.be/RMQDYYBnZWE?si=mHx8QtCIjHL-qF5y

What starts as a simple date night turns into one of the most unexpected, meaningful, and fun evenings my wife and I have had in a long time.

In this episode of This with Krish, I take you along with us from dinner at our favorite Mediterranean spot in Legacy West to a packed fight night at the Comerica Center in Frisco for Peak Fighting Championship.

We talk marriage, intentional time together, great food, live sports energy, and why date nights still matter—especially when life is busy.

You’ll also hear about an incredible local fighter, Bridgette Garcia, whose undefeated run and bold expression of faith completely stood out in a sport that rarely rewards humility. Her walkout, her words, and her performance in the ring made a lasting impression on everyone in the building.

This episode is about love, faith, competition, and showing up fully—whether that’s in your marriage, your calling, or your arena.

🎧 Topics covered: • Marriage and intentional date nights • Legacy West Plano food and atmosphere • Peak Fighting Championship live event experience • Faith in sports and leadership • Why shared experiences matter

For decades, the United States warned the world where it was safe to travel. Now, the script has flipped.

In this episode of This with Krish, we break down why countries like Canada, the U.K., Germany, France, and Australia are issuing travel advisories for the United States — and why this moment is historically different.

This isn’t fear-mongering. It’s optics, confidence, and global reputation.

We unpack the real reasons behind these advisories: gun violence, civil unrest, inconsistent laws, policing concerns, and political volatility. We also explore when this has happened before, why it’s becoming more common, and what it means when America’s closest allies quietly start warning their citizens.

This episode is funny, uncomfortable, honest, and necessary — with truth bombs, sarcasm, and context you won’t hear in a headline.

Because when your friends start warning people about you… that message travels faster than tourism brochures ever will.
