Dubai, Mutton Curry, Domestic Strife | M...

Pranav and Usama
About this episode

Usama and Pranav talk about Usama's time in Dubai, desi slaves in the Arab world, Indians having no respect for personal space, an Indian guy in Telangana who called the cops on his wife for not cooking him mutton curry (truly the GOAT), beatings: Italians vs. Indians? Probably the Irish. Some amazing movie stories, and we end on the greatest story ever told, starring Pranav's childhood bestie, Neil.
