#100 Cold Takes by Boju Bajai: Birthday edition
from Boju Bajai · host Boju Bajai
What do you mean it’s been NINE (!!) years since we released our first episode “Bears and Whores.” In this rambling birthday celebratory conversation, we look back on our journey, vent frustration about how the Nepali state continues to treat Nepali women as second-class citizens, the recent corruption kandas, "Paras Sarkar" content farm, and why Nepali netizens still can’t pachao opinionated women like actor Suraksha Pant.
