The Indian Racist
The Globe is trying to grapple with concepts like institutional discrimination and the world is redefining social communities. While European and North American nations talk about racism towards black people, the Indian subcontinent is looking away from its own problems. Simone and Pronoy try to tackle racism in India and how it overlaps with casteism and other age-old discriminatory practices. Listen to Life's Lineup episode 11 - The Indian Racist and share your opinions with them as well!
The Response to "When I was your age"
From crossing rivers to get to school, to having 100 people watch parties at the house of their neighbor - who was the first ever to get a black and white television. Stories that follow the phrase "When I was your age" often contain a reminiscent element and an obscure moral. In this episode of Life's Lineup, Simone and Pronoy have a serious discussion on how to respond to someone when they start with the phrase "When I was your age"
Should Relationships be Taxing?
We know about the ups and downs of life and we accept it. Recently we've seen a trend of people suggesting relationships end over matters that may seem trivial to many. There are no rules around relationship anymore, so where do we draw the line? Should relationships be emotionally taxing or do they need to be a bed of roses? Pronoy and Simone discuss these topics in these week's episode of Life's Lineup
What Does Support Look Like?
This week Simon and Pronoy dive into what support looks like. While life feels like a rollercoaster with its constant ups and downs, there are some people who are right by your side, enjoying the hell out of that ride. These people who you look to in moments of Joy and Pain can be referred to as your support system, but - what makes them good? What accounts for genuine support in contrast to fake words of affirmation? This week, your favorite hosts give their take on 'What Does Support Look Like?'.
