Published: Jan. 26, 2021, 5:35 a.m.

On this episode, Cyrus is joined by British-American author and journalist Aatish Taseer, to talk about how and why his OCI card was taken away by the Indian government, growing up in India and not meeting his father (who was Pakistani) till he was 21 years old, getting blacklisted so he can't even travel to India anymore, why it seems like fascists lack a sense of humour, his book 'Our Freedoms' published by Juggernaut Books, which is a compilation of thought provoking and intellectual protests by some of the country's most brilliant voices, Aatish's friendship with Sir V.S. Naipaul, Aatish not really being in support of any political parties of our country, where we stand with Joe Biden in the White House, who a possible successor for Narendra Modi could be and what that would mean for the country, what would need to change to make a shift back towards the left globally and in India, and tons more.
