"When Latent shut down, I was ruined. Sponsors demanded their money back. No one wanted to associate with me. I had used an advance from BookMyShow to invest in land. I had to return money I no longer had." - Samay describes the financial cost of outrage. (full episode in thread)

Dating apps and porn have fudged the most basic male instinct: the approach. Men are no longer approaching women at cafes, clubs, events. Those who do are startled at how successful their dating life becomes. The rest have withdrawn from dating and courtship altogether. They swipe and ruin their mental health. And then they find a blackpill guru that turns them into a woman-hating incel. It's a dangerous road. The only way to be sane and have a healthy dating life in 2026 is to meet women IRL, put yourself out there, get rejected, learn, and keep doing this till you become charismatic/uncover your natural charisma.

"India's Got Latent will not come back in the same form. It has real-world repercussions. Can't see my mom cry again. But in comedy, when shit hits the fan, you only have to double down. So...you have to attend it LIVE." Samay Raina on Dostcast Full podcast in thread

Japan is sexually stunted in strange ways. Barged into a girls bar yesterday. It’s roughly a place where men buy women drinks by the hour and pay for their company. First, the manager told us it was closed. But then this man in the video fought for us to remain in the bar. He bought us drinks and kept trying to make very drunken conversation. We didn’t pay a single penny. Kinda sad but this girl in the video openly dismissed this guy’s attempts to call her his girlfriend. And before the dude would figure that we were abusing his drunken grace and getting more drinks and laughter, we bounced. There were others like him in the bar. They would pay these hostesses per hour just to smile at them and talk to them. No sex. Just endless talking. They’ve productised the entire hierarchy of male-female interactions. Supply and demand. I’ve seen nothing like it.

Pakistan has done the unthinkable and helped stop the West Asia war. You must give them credit. This war is bad for India’s economy. At the same time, India’s foreign policy can’t be dictated by what Pakistan does. Vishnu Som weighs in on the Iran-USA-Israel war.

I was attending a comedy show at Habitat tonight. We were ushered out 30 minutes earlier. Was told some people broke one floor of the venue. Apparently, Kunal Kamra went too far when parodying Eknath Shinde. L day for comedy, free speech, and Kunal Kamra’s timing.

I went to the October 7 massacre site in Israel. I posted a video of it online. Hundreds of Indian accounts that had never set foot in Israel or Palestine attacked me. In this clip, reflects on the horrors of Pahalgam and 26/11. His synagogue is in Mumbai. The message is simple: Indians and Jews need to unite against radical Islamic terrorism. Else, history will keep repeating itself.

The money from standup comedy is bad. Comedians make little money from these shows (unless they’re very famous). The Habitat generates employment for hundreds of these struggling comedians, editors, producers, and waitstaff. Vandalising it is just evil. My take on barkha dutt show.

The stereotyping of North Indian Gujjars as brutish and trigger-happy is a result of: 1) no credible articulation of the Gujjar identity by Gujjars scholars and intellectuals 2) over-articulation of tribalism and groupthink by Gujjar dehaatis 3) forced stereotyping of AJGR communities by non-AJGR upper-caste urban folk who borrow this from dehaatis So, any Gujjar who excels in cerebral pursuits/escapes groupthink is either celebrated or has to find ways to transcend caste descriptors because he finds little acceptance among his dehaati counterparts. Our dumbest are the loudest. I don’t know the way out except for the rise of intellectualism among Gujjars and scholarship much like what Ambedkar and his successors did for the Dalits. I also could totally be wrong in my hypothesis. So feel free to comment on what you think about this.

The more you suppress sex and free expression, the more violently it bursts out. It is not a comedian's job to become the custodian of morality or to bend the knee. His job is just to make you laugh. Even if it makes you uncomfortable. Samay Raina on Dostcast full episode in thread

I took Mounjaro and lost 10KGs. Confidence up. Feeling great. But it came at a cost. Emotional blunting. An inability to feel the highs and lows of life. Many will say its a small cost to pay. Works if you're obese or diabetic. Doesn't work otherwise. No scientific data to back this. But tons of anecdotal data. Been off it since March 10. Working out hard to not gain the weight back. Tomorrow, Ozempic (its competitor) becomes generic in India. 1300-5000 rupees for a monthly dose. Lakhs of people will take it. Just know what you're getting into.

The son of a Bangladeshi Hindu refugee describes the racism they faced when trying to settle in Meghalaya. Some Bengalis would know about the erstwhile slogan বাঙ্গাল খেদাও (Bengal Khedav). Debraj Shome worked hard to set up a life in Mumbai. Others aren’t so prosperous.
