Continue the gentle roller coaster ride with Fareed and raji in the second half of their conversation as they talk about their pleasure explorations, non-normative rhythms and the mixed bag of emotions that comes along with creating archives of their own experiences of pleasure, inspiration and joy. They converse about what archiving pleasure and inspiration stories mean to Utar Chadhav and its many possibilities. They laugh, reminisce and of course talk about movies!

Come join this gentle rollercoaster ride along with fareed and raji as they talk about pleasure and liberation, community and inspiration. They bring in stories from their lives, touching upon intimacy, vulnerability, and how the movies factor into all of this [there's a not-so-secret watch list in their chat! Has a movie stayed with you so long that it inspires you?].

Fareed and Raji celebrate and struggle with the stories about pleasure expressed in places like the movies that shape how they feel joy, how they feel safe, how they connect with themselves and others, and how they find the root (or is it the route?) to their magnetism.

Has this hot weather, humidity and rainy season got you feeling static? Fret not, you are not alone in this feeling. The unpredictable weather and even more uncertain world scenario has us feeling down too. In these trying times, words of inspiration and little pockets of joy mean so much, don’t they? Luckily, we have just the thing for you! We have recently had the privilege of hosting conversation with  little bursts of inspirations who inspired us with their sometimes deep, sometimes random, and sometimes uniquely wise words. 

Talking to Prabodhi and Sadish has helped us make space for young voices to talk​​ about what gives them pleasure, joy, and inspiration to move about and how they experience life. This reflection has also inspired us to listen to not just the youngsters around us but also the inner child within us. 

Sit back, tune in and invite the child within you to ponder upon the simpler things of life and watch as the magic unfolds~

eric and raji met in the summer of 2009 at a party. For raji meeting eric changed the course of their life. eric brought an intentionality that raji always craved for. They started having candid conversations about pleasure and desire. Last year raji asked eric if he would want to record a conversation about pleasure and inspiration the next time they met. 

And so in May of 2025, they went camping and recorded this conversation over the course of two days. 

What does infusing joy and intentionality in our day to day lives, in our relationships look like? What does the journey look like and what does looking back at our younger selves, teach us and/or remind us about what we have always valued? How do we discern purpose that is imposed on us vs. purpose that grows from learning from experiences and influences we are open to?

Here’s to the joys of loitering and time traveling!

Let us know where this conversation transports you in your own journey. Listen with a friend, and engage with these questions:

Who taught you how to have fun? What is your pleasure lineage? (borrowed from Pleasure Activism by amb). 

Something you used to believe about pleasure and desire that doesn’t serve you any more? (borrowed from we are not really strangers XXX)

What does sober joy look like when we are talking about pleasure?

The love for letters, discovering our favourite writers and sharing our collective rage and grief, we have come to realize pleasure is not a linear feeling, nor inspiration a one way street . Listen to Navin in conversation with raji as they talk about how words, poetry and literature inspire us. The conversation loiters into many tangents as घत लाग्दो conversations often do. Intentional गफिने प्रयास as you know UC को लक्ष नै हो। So here’s a conversation for you to engage with. Here’s to the love of tangents and intentional गफ!

Let us know where this conversation transports you to!

Language and the written word are powerful. 

Listen to a conversation between SJ and Akh, besties and co-conspirators coming together to talk about the dating scene, sharing ज्ञान  that they have learned from experience which you will surely resonate with. As you listen, think about people in your life you can start these conversations with. 

Here at UC, in our own exploration of sex, intimacy, touch, consent we thought साथीहरुको साथ ले नै यो conversation अगाडि बढ्छ। 

Enjoy this heartfelt, funny conversation that centers letting in all sorts of pleasure and making sure shame and guilt never get an upper-hand.

Listen to this fun, musical and inspiring conversation between Saru and Suneeta Regmi, senior advocate who has been part of the Utar Chadhav journey from the very very beginning!

Our lives are multi-storied and we are transported to many possibilities of inspiration and pleasure when we come from a place of curiosity and tentativeness. What is revealed then is a knowing of what moves us, what helps us notice the little-little things that makes our life inspiring to reflect upon. 

As a facilitator, as a mother, teacher of law and whose comfort space is litigating in court, listen to suneeta share her journey and Saru witnessing and reflecting back in what is a beautiful testament to the pleasure in reliving and learning from each other's experiences.

गफ गाफको rehearsal गरौँ, नयाँ studio सँग familiarize हौँ भन्दै सुरु भएको संवाद तपाई माझ टक्र्याउँदै छौँ ! के के न हो यो शव्द chronobiopolitics बाट things your sex-ed teacher should have talked about but probably didn’t देखी talking about sex without making it sexual गर्दा खेरी निस्कने conversation to importance of basic respect to question “is separating art from artist valid?” to many more. हामीले यो ep.लाई समेट्न ठ्याकै शव्द भेटेनौँ त्यसैले राखिदियौँ, “अलिकति फुरुनदाना types”.

Ep. सुन्दै गर्दा ओहो यो नाम त गज्जबै सुहाउँछ जस्तो लागे खबर गर्नुस् है।
