Episode 1: Inquisitive – 15 Years of Art, Culture & Creativity We kicked off The Next Gen Podcast with none other than the legendary Inquisitive — and yes, this one was recorded before our studio was even ready (because when opportunity calls, we show up). In this candid yet formal sit-down, Inquisitive opens up about his 15-year journey in art, his evolution as one of the OG influencers in the South Asian creative scene, and what it really means to build a legacy driven by passion and purpose. Between the deep reflections, plenty of laughs, and random broken punjabi , this conversation gives a genuine look into the artist behind the art. And just when you think it’s wrapping up… Inquisitive drops a major announcement you don’t want to miss. 👀 It’s the perfect start to our journey — real stories, raw inspiration, and a whole lot of yapping and good vibes.
