The Vinamre Kasanaa Show
All your life, you have been asked to limit yourself. "Beta, follow the rules." "Speak in a low voice." "Don't pursue your dreams." You're fed up. You want access. You don't want someone else to tell you what kind of conversations to have. Or who to listen to. Or what is taboo. You want independence. Every Monday, join poet and conversationalist Vinamre Kasanaa as he dissects the habits, routines, and quirks of some of India's most creative and fearless personalities, many of whom stand at the boundary of what is acceptable. If you are creative, rebellious, or just curious, this is the podcast for you.

Dive headfirst into this spontaneous conversation I had with my friend Perry Sidhu in a Columbia University cafe. We talked about our male role models growing up, the difficult path to manhood, and rites of passage. Perry is passionate about nutrition, genetics, and human optimization, while I have always believed in the tremendous latent potential we inherit from our ancestors. When we fused the two perspectives together, what we got was this kickass conversation. Perry is a former actor and current president of Columbia University’s premiere free-speech organisation Stoa Colloquia. Follow him on @iparvir for scholar-athlete takes on social media.

Whatsup guys! My frequent collaborator Madhav Kohli @madk0hli interviewed me on my relationship with God, the specific family values that helped me stand the test of nihilism, and why being born in India is a blessing. We also delve into the difference between collectivistic and individualistic cultures, the importance of stories, and Hinduism. Guys, I rarely speak at length about my own personal beliefs but it looks like that's where this podcast is heading. I hope you enjoy this.
