    Nerd Gully and the boy who lived

    We are celebrating our tenth episode with Harry Potter, the movie franchise that shaped our childhoods. As much as we deny it, at one point we have all waited for out letters from Hogwarts. In this episode we go all the way from Hindi titles for Harry Potter movies to our alternate ending theory for this epic saga. Come along on a journey down memory lane as we talk about the avengers, owls and cars. It makes sense we promise! Thank you for sticking with us and supporting us. We love y'all!

    Heavy Stuff: body shaming, bollywood & bananas

    Life in India has a shared trauma of body shaming regardless of being skinny or fat. It's a casual joke among friends or a passing comment from a desi aunty or a constant stream of taunts from your relatives. Our weight has been a consistent topic of discussion all through our lives and we're unpacking a tiny part of 25 years of being called too fat or too thin in this episode. We are talking about how much we weigh, what we were shown in media and how did we actually come to terms with our weight.  Support Nerd Gully by leaving a rating and review on the podcast.

    Drunk & High : Ramayan edition

    Its 'Sid & Arya do mythology' week on Nerd Gully. We put our intoxicated minds together and try to recollect all of Ramayan as we know it. From detours to details, we talk about it all as well as we can.  Ramayan is a Hindu mythological text which narrates the life of prince Ram and the victory of good over evil in his battle with Raavan.  Support Nerd Gully by leaving a rating and review on the podcast.

    Matrimony, gender norms & matchmaking experiments

    We are back after a quick hiatus with our regularly scheduled programming. This week we are tackling the slippery slope of matrimony. As 25 year olds, we are already being pushed into the fiery pit of taunts like ‘when are you getting married?’ and ‘you’re next in line’  from Indian aunties. So we’re taking a look at a list of reasons, courtesy of the Indian society, as to why marriage is important and necessary, and how life is incomplete without a husband/ wife. We also discuss our recent sting operation into the professional matchmaking business of Shaadi.com i.e. the Indian version of the hunger games. From the cookie cutter profiles to the pictures and descriptions carefully curated for Indian sensibilities, we’re taking a look at the business end of matches made in heaven. Enjoy! PS: If you haven’t realized yet, we do not want to get married and we talk about why. Follow us on Instagram @nerdgully, Sid @sir_chasm, Arya @_meowmeowisme.

    Depression, anxiety & the stigma in Indian society

    It’s all about mental health on this week’s episode. Shocked by another celebrity suicide being attributed to depression, we take a look into our own battles with depression and anxiety. We discuss our experiences, our failures, and our healthy as well as unhealthy coping mechanisms. The stigma in Indian society about mental wellness and awareness about mental disorders has colored both our childhoods full of judgement from family and strangers. We share our stories and some tips to manage your mental health influenced by our own struggles with it. We truly hope that this episode makes you feel less alone!

    A thrilling tale of an engineer and an almost engineer battling societal pressures, lack of math skills and systemic patriarchy to make their way to the land of fluid ounces amidst the reign of a tyrannical orange. Welcome to the relocation series where we plan to talk about probably the biggest decision of our lives to leave India and move to the USA, and our individual journeys and experiences. In this episode, we talk about why we decided to make the move and give unsolicited advice to unsuspecting listeners. Follow us on Instagram @nerdgully, Sid @sir_chasm, Arya @_meowmeowisme.
