Another Browncast is up. You can listen on Libsyn, Apple, Spotify, and Stitcher (and a variety of other platforms). Probably the easiest way to keep up the podcast since we don’t have a regular schedule is to subscribe to one of the links above!
In this episode I talk to Kushal Mehra (Host of the Carvaka podcast) and regular Brownpundit Amey Chaugle about the tariff kerfuffle… the public (and on Trump’s side, frequently intemperate) war of words between the USA and India that is partly about India’s protectionist tariff regime but maybe mostly about other things (such as Donald’s ego and his desire to get that Nobel Peace Prize)..
Dig in and add your comments. We too don’t know exactly why this is going on and where it will end.. 🙂
Absolutely terrible podcast. Kushal is simply incapable of articulating a viewpoint without turning into an uncouth hot head. Both Kushal and Amey can’t stop flexing their “connections” and how each of them has the inside track. Meanwhile poor Omar can barely get a sensible sentence in to rein in the discussion.
Like listening to Arnab on steroids. Hard to stand more than a few minutes. The podcast seems to have completely dislocated from the site.
Kushal makes some good points, though his style is very blustery and off-putting (at least for me, who prefers a “pehle aap” style of reasoned conversation.) He’s been a successful podcast host for several years though, so I guess his mode of discourse has a significant market.
I listen to Kushal. He blusters a lot; but talks about things nobody else does. ven when they do, they use so much Periphrasis. And he does have inside information.
