In this episode, we discussed freethought and engaging in it in the age of social media.

In this episode, we discussed how religion and art intersect, how people with religion behind them cope, and how political paradigms shape religious identities.

In this episode, I took comments and questions from listeners and we got to talking about caste bias when people see a knowledgeable person, and how fans of babas react when you call them a baba.

In this episode, we had chill chats about empathy, the old "new atheism" and how pluralism seems a better way to approcah secular activism online.

The episode kicks off with a passionate discussion on the issue of Hindi imposition. Callers express their opinions, sharing personal experiences, and shedding light on the complexities surrounding linguistic dominance.

Next, the focus shifts to the best ways to educate children about religion. Callers seek guidance on how to navigate the delicate balance between imparting religious values, promoting inclusivity, and fostering critical thinking.

In the final segment, the podcast dives deep into the paradox of religious scriptures. Callers pose thought-provoking questions about the coexistence of messages of equality within religious texts and the persistence of discriminatory practices in various communities.

We talked about power structures, societal hierarchies, and how religion enables these divides and biases.

In this episode of the live stream, we got to talking about gender panic that is being imported from US, some thoughts about caste and reservation, and a couple of calls about evidence for god.

Karnataka election is over. So Meghnad and I chatted about it a little. Some fun, some insights. Nothing journalistically earth-shattering.

This episode, my webcam gave out and thus there isn't any good video to share. But the audio is clean and interesting.
