When the kettle whistles and the tea is ready, it's time for the DesiQuest after-show—and what a show it is! Omar Najam and I, Sandeep Parikh, are all cozied up inside the teapot, steaming with excitement. After every episode of DesiQuest is launched, we'll release another episode of the Tea Kettle with me and Omar and a very special guest, or guest from either behind or in front of the camera.
As the curtains draw close on a season sprinkled with laughter and insightful conversations, Omar and I, Sandeep, take you through a final stroll along the vibrant path of our creative journey in the Tea Kettle Finale. The air is thick with nostalgia as we recount the tears shed and the joyous moments that have shaped our adventure. Michael Schaubach and Jasmine Bhullar join the fray, lending their seasoned insights to the conversation and encouraging everyone to keep the love alive at DesiQuest.com.
The finale episode of our Tea Kettle Podcast wraps with a cozy chat, hoodies and all, that playfully segues into a deeper reflection on generational wealth and mental health. Sharing the poignant moment when Omar unraveled the threads of generational trauma to his mother, he celebrates her journey into retirement and the resilience that binds their family. Our ABCD podcast also gets a nod, as we eagerly await the next season exploring the American-born Desi experience. Jasmine Bhullar, wearing her showrunner's hat, shares an enlightening perspective on the transformative power of storytelling. As the episode winds down, we revel in the shared joy and the unifying spirit of 'play' that has invigorated our creative pursuits. Our Patreon family is in for an extra treat with 50 minutes of riveting, exclusive content that's simply too good to miss.

Episode Description:
When the kettle whistles and the tea is ready, it's time for the DesiQuest after-show—and what a show it is! Omar Najam and I, Sandeep Parikh, are all cozied up inside the teapot, steaming with excitement. After every episode of DesiQuest is launched, we'll release another episode of the Tea Kettle with me and Omar and a very special guest, or guest from either behind or in front of the camera.
We're thrilled to share a candid chat about the unexpected crossroads of our schedules and the whimsical thought of a fundraiser to ensure our whole team can join in the fun. This episode isn't just about our shenanigans; we're joined by two exceptional talents: VoodooVal, the wizard of digital art, and Rekha Shankar, a wordsmith whose narratives captivate. Rekha teases us with tales from her latest project, 'Smarty Pants', while Val's artistic genius not only amplifies our show's aesthetic but also paints our Desi heritage in strokes of vibrant color.
Our conversation meanders through a series of appreciative toasts to the creative muses that are Val and Rekha, whose contributions are as indispensable as they are inspirational. I share a sneak peek into ABCD, the podcast that dissects American-born Desi experiences with the same vigor we tackle a plate of mom's samosas—spiced, satisfying, and leaving you hungry for more. As Omar and I recap the nail-biting, edge-of-your-seat combat from our latest episode, we acknowledge it's the support from our Patreon family that enables these moments to come alive. So, whether you're here for the dark fantasy, the cultural camaraderie, or the pure joy of our collective journey, this episode is a heartfelt 'thank you' wrapped in an invitation to continue this wild ride with us.

After every episode of DesiQuest is launched, we'll release another episode of the Tea Kettle with me and Omar and a very special guest, or guest from either behind or in front of the camera.
As we cracked open the doors after Episode 5, it was nothing short of a party where Erika Ishii and Noxweiler Berf, the creative forces behind our show's beloved Nuri and its exquisitely crafted miniatures, joined us at the mic. Their stories of meticulous brushstrokes and imaginative design had us riveted, offering a rare peek into the artistry that fuels DesiQuest. Between hearty laughs, we teased the relaunch of the ABCD podcast, a melting pot of culture and comedy that promises to tickle your funny bone and tug at your heartstrings.
Then, we wandered down the cobblestone paths of nostalgia to the halls of Fonco (Studios), a place stitched with the threads of our past. It was here, among the echoes of weddings and the clinking of glasses from celebrations past, that we found our way back to the warm embrace of familiarity. For those who've ever yearned to revisit the haunts of their memories, this chapter is a heartfelt homage. And for the insatiably curious, our Patreon is brimming with more anecdotes and secrets and the rest of this conversation continues, just a click and a pledge away.Support the Show.

When spontaneity strikes, it strikes gold! Imagine our astonishment when the multi-talented Sephie, Persephone Valentine, swooped onto DesiQuest's set with less than an hour's notice, infusing our show with an unexpected twist that might just clinch us another season. We're buzzing with excitement as we unpack the chemistry between Sephie and Jasmine Bhullar the seismic shift their character brings to our story, and the laughter that ensued from a wild genie-wish discussion—six ass cheeks, anyone? Amidst our giggles, we don't forget to honor the rich cultural tapestry of the Aladdin tale that's woven into our narrative's fabric.
The stakes have never been higher, and the drama? Simply electric. We're peeling back the curtain to reveal how we crank up the tension and the trials for our beloved characters, taking cues from the riveting episodes showcasing Luis Carazo's emotional journey. As we converge our characters against a challenging adversary, we're not just crafting a story—we're crafting an experience, one that resonates deeply with you, our audience. And for those who hunger for the meatier bits of our storytelling saga—we're serving up an exclusive, in-depth continuation for our Patreon brigade.

Presenting Episode 3 of the Tea Kettle, hosted by Omar Najam & Sandeep Parikh!
When the kettle whistles and the tea is ready, it's time for the DesiQuest after-show—and what a show it is! Omar Najam and I, Sandeep Parikh, are all cozied up inside the teapot, steaming with excitement. After every episode of DesiQuest is launched, we'll release another episode of the Tea Kettle with me and Omar and a very special guest, or guest from either behind or in front of the camera.In this episode, special guest Luis Carazo talks about creating his character Namir, and his strategy during game play: from not breaking character when he doesn't know how to respond to a question from a fellow player, to how to determine when - as a guest player - to sit back and when to take the reigns of the game. Lead Producer Ash Minnick also joins us to discuss the great lengths production went to to keep guest stars and other surprise elements secret from the cast, and the behind-the-scenes domino effect that takes place following curveballs that arise during session 0 and the filming of an actual play.

When the kettle whistles and the tea is ready, it's time for the DesiQuest after-show—and what a show it is! Omar Najam and I, Sandeep Parikh, are all cozied up inside the teapot, steaming with excitement. After every episode of DesiQuest is launched, we'll release another episode of the Tea Kettle with me and Omar and a very special guest, or guest from either behind or in front of the camera.
Stepping into the spotlight, our cherished guests Rekha Shankar and Michael Shaubach join us, adding their unique sparkle to the ensemble of DesiQuest. There's a special kind of magic that happens when Rekha, who animates the vibrant Laddoo Auntie, meshes her family heritage with her character's flair, showing us that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Meanwhile, Michael Shaubch, the maestro behind the scenes, orchestrates the ebb and flow of our on-screen drama, sharing pearls of wisdom about his directing journey and the tributes he weaves into his work. Together, we unwrap the layers of our characters and creative process, reveling in the narratives we've lovingly crafted for our audience.
Buckle up for a culinary rollercoaster as we enter the kitchen with Laddoo Auntie, the queen of candor and culinary delights, whose throne is challenged during a high-stakes kitty party. It's a tale of gastronomic one-upmanship that I, Sandeep Parikh, as both executive producer and actor, recount with the same passion that fuels our beloved Auntie's quest for cooking supremacy. The emotional whirlwind of competing ladles and clashing spices is a story we tell with fervor, and for those craving the full banquet of behind-the-scenes morsels, we extend an invitation to join our Patreon family. Join us for a heartfelt tribute to storytelling, where the flavors of DesiQuest are as rich and varied as the characters themselves.Support the Show.

Join us as we journey to the coastal region of Vehaar, a land full of adventures unfolding at the intersection of familial drama and missing luggage! But worry not, we have Namir (Luis Carazo), our resident nature expert, steering us through the ebbs and flows of the grand Kitty party thrown by the ever-extravagant Priya (Jasmine Bhullar). Brace yourself for a surprise as Namir readies himself to crash this fashionably late gathering.
Skip across the borders with us as Sitara (Anjali Bhimani) welcome Ash (Sandeep Parikh), a newcomer at Priya's philanthropic Kitty party, and delve into the noble cause it serves. Laddoo Auntie (Rekha Shankar) has brought the sweets for the get-together but is shocked to see Priya has invited Gharana Foods to cater the event. The high-spirited chatter only gets lighter as we introduce Namir, our half-elven explorer on a quest to reconnect with his roots, and Priya, our nature aficionado, guiding us through the enigmatic trails of Rak Tibba. Uncover the mysteries of hierarchy, culture, and language as we encounter Murkha (Omar Najam) and his adorable red panda construct, Baccha.
As we unravel the eerie enigmas of Rak Tibba and the unsettling aftermath of demi goddess Silsilan's absence, we cross paths with the mystical entity, Nooryn. Engage in a thought-provoking conversation about life's cyclical nature, while dealing with the repercussions of Silsilan's absence. Prepare to be enchanted as we team up with Priya, a wizard from the Wane School of Divination, to protect our town and embark on a journey into the woods. So, buckle up for an exciting ride full of laughter, adventure, and riveting conversations as we navigate these captivating narratives.Support the Show.

After every episode of DesiQuest is launched, we'll release another episode of the Tea Kettle with me and Omar and a very special guest, or guest from either behind or in front of the camera.
And who better to chat with in our inaugural episode than Jasmine Bhullar, the brilliant mind weaving the tapestry of DesiQuest. It's a laughter-filled session, where we peel back the curtain on Episode 1 and Jasmine's magical universe, a place born from the seeds of many ideas. Our conversation meanders through the gardens of creativity, where extroverted effervescence meets the tranquil depths of introversion, and we find that our differences are not just okay—they're essential for the rich tapestry of our show.
Hang on to your teacups because we're not just sipping tea; we're spilling it on the surprises that creativity often springs upon us. The unpredictability of what tickles our audience's fancy can be as bewildering as a maze in Jasmine's realm, yet it's this very spontaneity that fuels our passion.
