The Weekend Splurge

By Nethmini Sirimanne

Unscripted, Unedited, Unlimited. Just friends having a discussion about endless and limitless thoughts. Social issues, the weather, shower thoughts, what we’re having for dinner- you name it! Hi I'm Nethmini, and I'm here if you need to talk! Just drop a DM to @nethiaiyoo on Instagram and let's get to it! (you can remain anonymous too!) Main languages will be Sinhala and English - my Tamil needs a lot of work before it’s ready! So I give my apologies!

2.2 Judgement, Adults & Opinions, Culture - Visakha Tillekeratne

Welcome to Episode 2 of Exploring the Generational Disparity! Today I'm joined by Visakha Aunty (who is quite the extraordinary individual) to converse about the good and the bad that accompany judgment, how adults or older generations are very stubborn about their opinions and how we could change it, and the importance of our culture. Hope you enjoy!

2.1 Family, Passion, Generational Disparity - Sugeeshwara Sirimanne

2.1 Family, Passion, Generational Disparity - Sugeeshwara Sirimanne

Welcome to the inaugural season of The Weekend Splurge! Thought that it'd be quite interesting to explore the disparity between generations when it comes to thinking, and how each generation views the world.
In episode number 1 I'll be conversing with my uncle, Sugeeshwara Sirimanne (whom I lovingly call Sugee Mami) about familial connections, Passion and the concept of Generational disparity itself.
So chillax, and join our rollercoaster of a conversation. Ending was *cough cough* quite interesting *cough cough*
