Blind Men And The Elephant

In our TENTH episode we continue our conversation with Tanisha on how things have changed for the queer community, while remaining the same. We also hear her thoughts on the politics surrounding LGBT activism. We conclude this episode by talking about how our ideas of intimacy and changed during the pandemic.

About Blind Men and the Elephant: When a few blind men come across a large elephant for the first time in their lives, they imagine the elephant to be what their hands tell them. This, without them ever knowing that the legs or the tusks that they feel are but one small part of this mammoth beast. Where else have we seen this phenomenon? We all love talking about how we see the world. And we are always convinced that how we see it makes sense. But does it? Or, to really think about it, do we really see it? Or are we always just groping in the dark? Niraj and Osho bring a podcast where they share new ideas that are hidden within echo chambers, algorithmic blindspots, or simply highlight anomalies in plain sight. This is a show which will have super engaging conversations between two friends who have tried to build successful careers in the fields of consulting and public policy, while always chasing novel perspectives on what’s going on around us. It is these perspectives that we dive into - from sport to finance, politics to wellness, technology to fashion - and invite you to see the world through our blind eyes.
