Hello there! I'm proud to announce a new show that I've started, Getting Meta. It's a show on productivity, mental models, life hacks and stuff eked out with conversations with some very smart people. These include Amit Varma (host, The Seen & The Unseen), Krish Ashok (the legendary internet humorist), Utsav Mamoria (who runs Postcards from Nowhere), Meeta Malhotra, a former partner at one of India's leading design firms and a serial entrepreneur, Dhimant Parekh (the founder & CEO of The Better India), Rohan Joshi (comedian), and more.I'd love to share the first interview here with you! It's my chat with writer and podcaster, Amit Varma. It was a perfect way to start my new show, as Amit's always been a supporter of what I do and runs what is probably India's finest podcast today. In this interview, we come up with the name for the show, Getting Meta, together! I hope you enjoy this chat, and like it enough to subscribe to the show!

A story of rivalry, friendship and lots of formulae
The Origin of Things is a weekly short-format podcast run by Deepak Gopalakrishnan aka Chuck.
Each episode deals with the origin of a popular brand, but with the name of the brand (and often, category) revealed only at the end - hence adding a bit of drama, keeping the listener guessing.
