    Who’s Most Likely to Survive: Naina vs Sakshi

    Hello again Mossies! This week on MOS we finally settled the debate that has been brewing since episode one. Who is the main character of this podcast and who has been the side character all along? Naina and Sakshi sat down, had it out - and as it turns out it’s YOU MOSSIES that are the actual stars of this establishment. We then had a deep thought-provoking debate on what are the traits that separate a main character from a side character, and most importantly… which one are YOU? We asked the questions that matter: is the five second rule only for NPCs? Is carrying out bodily functions with your camera off okay? If our plane got hijacked at what point can we continue watching our movie? And if we got stranded on a deserted island, who’d be the one to steal everyone’s rations? We have a very strong suspect. Watch the episode to find out. P.S: The most main character thing you can do right now is like, comment, share, hype, subscribe, and get us to 100k. Only the characters that get killed in horror movies don't subscribe. Stay safe, subscribe now!

    Unsolved Mysteries, Lost Treasures, Hidden Caves

    ATTENTION people of MOS: our new episode is LIVE and the weekend is officially open. This week we were feeling nostalgic about that one guy who never gave us closure so we decided to do a deep dive into unsolved mysteries. Sakshi is officially back from Australia and gave us the full trip update, adding yet another feather to her shaadi-attending hat. From there we dove into the mysteries that may never be solved aka where do lost scrunchies go, how does the salon lady lather a full head with a coin-sized amount, and what do boyfriends do when they're not with you? We also got into the mystery of Roopkund Lake: skeletons, child-free ancient Indians, and a certain dancing plague (feat. Chunari Chunari). Then we unpacked the lost treasure of the Son Bhandar Caves and debated whether MOS needs to launch an official mission to find Bimbisara's gold. But honestly, the only mystery that really needs solving is why we haven't hit 100k yet. Go like, comment, share, hype, subscribe… or one of your ears might just fall off. You never know.

    Hot Takes - Part 2

    Namaste Mossies, it's Friday again and this time it's HOT TAKES SZN 2 - go grab yourself a beverage with extra ice because the takes this time are HOT as they come. We kicked things off with Naina mounting a quick & passionate defence of her opinion from Hot Takes Pt 1 that drew some flak, with a special shoutout to the OG feminist - father Bhan.From there we got into our unreasonably unpopular opinions about the struggles of being drop dead gorgeous, the terrors of being invoice rich but cash poor, and the gaping wealth inequality between influencers and their internet overlords. The girls also wondered about the choice to be childfree, and debated if pets are better than kids (pets - 1, human child - 0, for now). Our studio audience stepped up with some certifiable controversial opinions - that men are the true masters of spreading gossip, and that apparently pigeons deserve justice. Meanwhile, our listeners were quite UNHINGED with the takes they sent in (NGL we were concerned). We're talking girl code on snitching about cheating friends, and a take on whether gay incest might be... okay?? Hope there’s a mop nearby because your jaw will be on the floor. Finally: did you know that every time you like comment share follow hype & most importantly SUBSCRIBE to our channel, the gates of heaven open a lil further for you? Go do it and make the angels happy. Chaptering: 00:00 - Hot Takes are back, and got hotter 04:48 - Cyberbullying is actually wild 07:32 - The movie recco 12:44 - Mentally rich, financially... still loading 13:41 - Are influencers underpaid? 17:52 - Women in leadership: why is it still a debate? 18:47 - Gold digger 19:14 - Are hot people facing unique struggles? 27:10 - Splitsvilla proves men gossip too 29:30 - Straight men and marriage: a complicated relationship 31:03 - A take that had everyone pausing for a second 34:02 - Should women always tell the truth? 35:10 - Cheaters have secrets too... 37:06 - Pregnancy scares, Botox, tattoos 41:35 - Pets over kids? 43:02 - Should you only date within your income bracket? 45:50 - Who's picking up the bill? 49:23 - Would you text a stranger? 50:27 - Holding hands, but make it controversial 52:49 - The age-gap relationship Follow MoS on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/momentofsilencepod/reels/?hl=en Credits:Naina Bhan - Co-host and certified overthinker https://www.instagram.com/nainabee?ig...
