4 Indian podcasts you need to check out

We’ve seen quite a few podcasts launch in recent times. Here’s our pick of 4 Indian ones that are worth listening to

1) Kaan Masti: Looking for some uncensored banter by José Covaco and Suresh Menon? This comedy podcast is based on real life, private, adult, in-between work conversations of colleagues, working at a radio station. You definitely don’t want to listen to this on speaker mode.

2) The Real Food Podcast: Hosted by food writer Vikram Doctor, the show goes deep into the origins, legends and stories behind various ingredients. For instance, he’s done a show on how Amul become the ‘taste of India’ or tracing the history of beer and microbreweries in India.

3) Indian Metal Podcast: Catch up on all the recent happenings in the metal community. Tune in for Musician Sahil Makhija’s (of Demonic Resurrection) updates on new releases, tours and line up changes and recommendations.

4) The Intersection: Every fortnight, this podcast brings together stories around culture, science and history in India. Through in-depth interviews and research Padmaparna Ghosh and Samanth Subramanian look at interesting topics like the mystery of the Bombay blood group or the rudimentary coordination setup that organises a top-end medical procedure: heart transplants.
