Ep 178: Bandish Bandits, I May Destroy You, and more

<p><em>While talking about </em>Bandish Bandits:</p><p><strong>Abhinandan: </strong>Rajyasree, sing one line of any song you want,&nbsp;just one.</p><p><strong>Rajyasree:&nbsp;</strong>No, now I don’t want to sing like that because you’ll get it doctored from the backend and make me sound bad. So, why will I do that?</p><p><strong>Abhinandan: </strong>You’re the crappiest singer ever and I must say that much as I have problems with the place you come from, Bongs have music in their blood. It is very rarely that you’ll come across a Bengali who is either not vocally trained or [doesn’t] play an instrument very well.</p><p><strong>Rajyasree: </strong>I play the piano very well.</p><p><strong>Abhinandan: </strong>You do nothing and stop lying.</p><p><strong>Rajyasree: </strong>No, no, I play the piano very well but I’ll sing one line of a song. “<em>Saagar kinare dil ye pukare</em>..." See! You’re making me laugh. It’s off beat?</p><p><strong>Abhinandan: </strong>Dude, you're very bad, you shouldn’t try and sing. Okay, never mind. And don’t say that you can play the piano, your hands are too small to play the piano.</p><p><strong>Rajyasree: </strong>No, I play the piano. I can play Chopin (pronounced “Shoh-pan”, with a nasal “n”).</p><p><strong>Abhinandan:&nbsp;</strong>Ok, Chopin <em>ki hogayi te pan</em>.</p><p><em>Rajyasree and Abhinandan burst out laughing.</em></p><p>This and a whole lot of other stuff awful and awesome as Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen discuss the web series <em>Bandish Bandits</em>, <em>Ramy </em>and <em>I May Destroy You</em>; <em>BBC Three Quickies</em>’ sketch <em>She’s Asking For It</em>; the song <em>Beyonse Sharma Jayegi</em>; and a whole lot more.</p><p>Tune in!</p><br><p><strong>Timecodes</strong></p><p><strong>00:08:</strong> Introduction</p><p><strong>03:20:</strong> Letters from listeners</p><p><strong>06:26:</strong> Bandish Bandits</p><p><strong>17:33: </strong>I May Destroy You</p><p><strong>30:09:</strong> Letters from listeners</p><p><strong>34:44:</strong> Beyonse Sharma
