#10 - In Dialogue with Ira Mukhoty, author of books on amazing Indian women from the Mughal era and beyond

Season 1 · Episode 10

Friday, April 23, 2021 • Duration 01:15:35

To quote Veda, "double digits, baby!"

We are in dialogue with author Ira Mukhoty, who has written about amazing Indian women in history, including the queens and empresses of the Mughal Empire.

We talk to her about her book Daughters of the Sun and how the colonial Orientalist gaze has given us a lopsided view of the women from the Mughal period — and why she refuses to use the word 'harem'. She breaks our hearts about the beloved Akbar and Birbal (yes, Jodhaa Akbar also comes up). But she also shows us how desi women have been denied the stories of powerful role models, and how she's changing that narrative. We also talk about her upcoming book Song of Draupadi, which will feature the strong women of the Mahabharata.

#9 - Cricket in the US, the origin of filter coffee, and a desi man who was America’s first celebrity chef

Season 1 · Episode 9

Friday, April 9, 2021 • Duration 01:12:28

We explore the rich history of cricket in North America and how the first ever cricket match in the world was between US and Canada. We also talk about some of our personal favorite cricket moments. We take a deep dive into the history of filter coffee and how it became inextricably linked with caste in South India. And finally, we talk about America’s first celebrity chef, a charismatic young man of Indian descent by the name of J. Ranji Smile. He was allegedly responsible, among other things, for teaching the women of America how to properly cook rice.
