We talk about the growing persecution of Indian Muslims at the hands of the extremist Hindutva regime in this episode and joining us in this discussion is our Indian friend. Will "Mother India" ever accept its Muslim children, will they continue to face the worst forms of discrimination and terror due to their religion exposing the fault lines of the so-called secular state?

Finally we are back online with #PodcastChowk 7th Episode after a month long break! Please accept our sincere apologies, most of our team members were on a leave.
In the episode we reflected upon #Pakistanteam clinical run in the #WCT20, pretty unreal given our circumstances. Before starting the tournament our chairman got changed, coaches sacked or resigned, New Zealand & England cancelled their tours which led to Pakistan missing out important T20's & the team selection drama.
Despite all the chaos, Babarazam's XI (he played the same team throughout the tournament) topped the group stage without dropping a game. Interestingly in all 5 matches we had a different Man of the match (Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, Asif Ali, Rizwan, Shoaib Malik ), literally ALL THE CREDIT GOES TO THE BOYS. Pakistan will lock horns against Australia in the semi-final. Cheers!

Afghanistan has come as a surprise (or maybe not) for everyone. With almost every political pundit having a go at the situation, we thought of enlightening the world with our "much-awaited" opinions as well. Our speakers share their sentiments on what has been lost so far and what they hope can be gained in the time to come. Like everyone else, we have our hopes, fears, and most of all the prayers for the people of Afghanistan.

This week we discuss the hot topic on everyone's feed, Khan Saab's comments on rape, abuse, vulgarity, & pardah. We not only express our opinion on Khan saab's take on the issue but also dissect the ensuing narrative that has divided the nation so much. Where do we lie on the spectrum? Is it possible to have a nuanced trigger-free conversation on a very challenging topic? Are their ideological biases at play?
Listen & find out.

23rd March Special!
On this Pakistan day, we sit down to have a frank & open conversation with our Indian brothers from across the border. We try to understand the partition & how it's viewed by those who made it to Pakistan & those who couldn't. We try to rehash the idea of why Pakistan was inevitable & what we think could be the future of Muslims in both Pakistan & India, given their history & current circumstances.

We sit down and discuss the drama that unfolded last week around the senate elections. The alleged blackmail, money, and brokering involved in the name of power politics, stands in contrast to the tall claims of actual change, real accountability, and the promise to be different.
