Elon Wants Fireworks, the Brits Want Their Jet : Nobody’s Getting Anything

Hot Moves at Coldplay: The Labubu Edition

What do a Coldplay concert, an HR affair, and a Labubu-loaded handbag have in common? This episode, obviously. Join me as we unpack Fifty Shades of Shady at Coldplay’s Boston show, where the CEO of Astronomer and his HR chief got caught cuddling on the jumbotron—before being publicly called out by Chris Martin himself. Meanwhile, desis have turned Wimbledon into Fashion Week with more PDA, poses, and Labubu dolls than even the Chinese can handle. Spoiler: Kate Middleton lost the fashion headlines to our very own Bollywood starlet. Yes, game, set and match. From concert chaos to Centre Court drama, this satirical news roundup skewers workplace scandals, celebrity culture, and the great Indian takeover of global pop moments.

This Season's Must-Haves: Sinkholes and Flooded Flats

Welcome to Gurugram—where ₹100-crore apartments come with complimentary waterlogging, and sinkholes are the new swimming pools. In this episode, we wade into the murky reality of urban flooding in India's poshest neighbourhoods, where not even gated communities are safe from missing roads, and disappearing beer trucks. Join us as we unpack how India’s elite learned the hard way that money can’t buy you drainage, or disaster management. From the rise of the “Gurugram Daredevils”—college kids turning floods into an event—to the ridiculous rise of designer handbags shaped like juice boxes and coffee cups, we’re diving deep into the absurd. This episode skewers India’s infrastructure crisis, the widening gap between image and reality, and how wealth inequality has never been more visible (or slippery). If you enjoy satirical commentary on Indian society, influencer culture, and the elite’s endless attempts to stay dry (and relevant), this one’s for you.

Elon Wants Fireworks, the Brits Want Their Jet : Nobody’s Getting Anything

It’s Musk vs Trump, democracy vs delusion, and somewhere in the background... a very confused British jet stranded in Kerala. In this episode, we unpack the latest public spat between Elon Musk and Donald Trump. From Musk’s 4th of July “America Party” stunt on X (formerly Twitter) to Trump’s big beautiful bill, we explore the bromance gone bad, democracy on life support, and the British fighter jet mysteriously marooned in Kerala. Tune in for sharp commentary on billionaire politics, meme-worthy diplomacy, and India’s growing swagger as a $4 trillion economy.

Uninvited: Two Weddings and a Kohlapuri

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez had the “biggest wedding of the century” in Venice—at least according to some western headlines. But was it really? In this episode, we break down the Bezos wedding on a $50M budget (yes, for the world’s fourth richest man), the Canva invite, the questionable fashion choices, and the very loud protests. Then we roll out the real big-fat-number-crunching, comparing it to the 2024 wedding of the century —complete with a cruise across Europe, pre-wedding events that outshone most actual weddings, a $600M spend, and a wardrobe schedule more brutal than Fashion Week. Also featuring: Rihanna barefoot, Indian aunties outdressing billionaires, and the ultimate question—why does the West keep underplaying our sparkle? It can't be dimmed. Shop those Karol Bagh dupes. You know you want to.

A Nobel, with Gunpowder on the Side

What do you get when you mix a Middle East missile crisis, overpriced plane tickets, and Donald Trump’s dinner plans? A mile-high mess that turns your Europe flight into a comedy-thriller. In this episode, we fly over Israeli fireworks (yes, real ones), revisit Trump’s salad strategies with Pakistan, and decode why English might just be India’s most dangerous weapon. From Punjabi Bagh firecrackers to nuclear paranoia at 30,000 feet—this is global politics, with turbulence.
