Uncle, Please Sit!

On an all-new episode of Uncle, Please Sit, former journalists and current comedy writers Joel Pereira and Tushar Abhichandani are all set to demolish yet another dumb uncle myth. Appalled by uncles applauding police violence against the poor and migrant labour out in the streets looking for groceries or going home during the COVID 19 lockdown, the boys set to establish why due process is so absolutely important while dealing with the cops.

Debunked in this podcast are such chestnuts as "Why spend money on the court case, they should just be shot," and "Oh only Police and Army is responsible for human rights? What about the criminals?".
Dumb. We know. Listen on..

You can't watch this with your family!"

On an all-new episode of "Uncle, Please Sit!", hosts Joel Pereira and Tushar Abhichandani take on a topic that arouses a lot of passionate, and often ignorant, debate among people.

This week, the guys talk about Reservations. They explain why Reservations are essential in an unequal society like India and debunk the standard Uncle opinions around it, like "oh it should only apply to creamy layer", or "it's been 70 years, how much more time do they need."

They also look deeper into the effects so far of reservations, both in education and the public sector, and come away realizing that much more needs to be done.

Tune in to find out why the topic of Reservations needs a nuanced and empathetic look.

On an all-new episode of "Uncle, Please Sit!", hosts Joel Pereira and Tushar Abhichandani take on a topic that everyone claims to be an expert at, but is still full of some very dumb myths.

On this episode, the guys are talking on the subject of food. The way we eat and why, and the number of Uncle opinions about "veg" and "non-veg", "light" and "heavy" and vegan versus everyone else.

Everyone has an opinion about food and they're probably mostly wrong. Let's take this popular one - "India is predominantly vegetarian". Wrong. "Vegetarianism is cruelty-free." Wrong again. "Gujarat is vegetarian." Incorrect, and what if we told you that kukkad shukkad eating Punjab was more vegetarian than Gujarat?

Chaunk gaye? Keep listening...
