    Hi loves! Welcome to a new bonus series of NaskoChats! I've always wanted to review my favorite TV show - RuPaul's Drag Race and here we are! I wanna thank my bestie, Saareen Junaid, for being my co-host for this bonus series. In this set of episodes, Saareen and I will review each new upcoming episode of Season 15 of RuPaul's Drag Race, discussing queens' performances, looks, and overall storyline of the show. In this episode, we review episode 11 - Two Queens, One Joke. We critique and review the queens' performances in the stand-up comedy duo challenge and their runway looks - category is "Rip Her to Shreds". Hope you enjoy it! Additionally, I wanted to bring a spotlight on the bigoted and ludicrous bill passed in the state of Tennessee banning drag performances and making it illegal to cress-dress. As avid supporters and reviewers of all drag and Drag Race, this bill has affected many local performers and reflects on a ridiculous anti-drag sentiment rooted in bigotry and homophobia. Read more about the bill in this NYTimes: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/05/us/tennessee-law-drag-shows.html Here is an opinion piece that I also found informative and well-written: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/13/opinion/tennessee-anti-drag-laws.html If you want to donate and help support drag performers, donate to the ACLU Drag Defense Fund: https://action.aclu.org/give/support-drag-defense-fund?cid=7013r000001reowAAA&initms_aff=nat&initms_chan=eml&utm_medium=eml&initms=230307_dragdefense_appeal_sb&utm_source=sb&utm_campaign=dragdefense&utm_content=230307_lgbtq_appeal&ms_aff=nat&ms_chan=eml&ms=230307_dragdefense_appeal_sb&redirect=dragdefense Please consider reading, donating, and spreading awareness of this hate crime!

Career anxiety concerning my computer science background has been haunting me since the beginning of the summer because of the then-incoming and now current recruiting junior season in college. Here I talk about why I experience this anxiety, Princeton's culture on careers and recruiting, and finally how I have been dealing with this anxiety and my journey so far.

If you are experiencing any sort of anxiety or other mental health issues, please seek help from therapists, friends, and/or family near you! Update for the whole podcast!

    This episode was a part of a project for my Developmental Psychology Class for my Spring 2021 semester. In it, I discuss many different topics related to babies and child development with my friend Jessica. Jessica is also a Princeton undergrad who took a Psychology of Language class the same semester, so I invited her to give me her perspective and create a lovely conversation where we talk about babies, which we love, and child development. In this episode we discuss our own personal experiences with development, especially focusing on how culture affected the way we were raised. Other topics that we mentioned were the natal development of the baby before it was even born, language development, cultural differences, parenting styles, play, and many more. It's such a good episode where we really share some interesting content if you are remotely interested in having a baby, love babies, and want to raise babies of your own. Disclaimer: Some of the content might not be 100% accurate but we will try to give you the closest to truth content as possible and if you are interested in these topics and want to validate, please research and always double-check information from several sources of #don't be ignorant. Also, there might be explicit content in this, as in all my podcast episodes, but we will keep them as the minimum because of how important we think having babies and some of the topics are a serious topic.

    In this episode of NaskoChats, I am actually starting a new series on the podcast that I hope to continue in the future - Story Time. My dear friend Saareen from Florida, who is the first storytime guest, inspired me through this podcast to share the stories of people. Saareen shares her story as a daughter of immigrant parents from Bangladesh experiencing a lot of discrimination, racism, sexism, and other values in a predominantly white school in Florida. A look of deep reflection and great conversation for Saareen to share her narrative with the world, one she hopes others can relate to. What is Story Time? Story Time is a series for people to express their story of adversity, success, or any story of significance to them. The point of the series isn't really so much a conversation like my regular episodes but listening to the guests and letting them drive their narrative with me asking driving and non-pointed questions. I hope to let people's narratives, emotions, downfalls, successes, and much more come to light and hopefully find people that can relate to these storytimes. Sharing one's story is not only important but freeing and healing. We all have a story to share, mine will be throughout this podcast and many more episodes, but it's important to listen, absorb, relate, sympathize, and appreciate narratives of fellow human beings. Please use these resources for education and advocacy and allyship towards BLM and Asian Hate and Discrimination: BLM Website - Resources National Education Association (edjustice) - Black Lives Matter Resources and Educational Material Anti-Asian Violence Resources And many more ... everyone can get educated through a simple Google search.
