Simblified

9 years, ~320 episodes.4 co-hosts, 6 producers, so many folks behind the scenes.Some 50 guests, thousands (!) of listeners, hundreds of thousands (!!!!) of downloads. Well, folks, it's time for the curtains to fall on our little show. Simblified started as an exercise to stave off some boredom long back in Malad with nothing more than the voice recorded app on an Android phone, and our idea of sound engineering was turning off the fan. Along the way, we've collected two more co-hosts and apparently many fans! It's finally time to bid goodbye. But before we go, we owe you one final episode and it's an absolute doozy and dare I say our most emotional one yet. We delve into the reasons why we're stopping the show, what each of us has taken away from hosting it, and importantly, what more we are up to. Because we don't intend to stop creating content anytime soon - the Simblified Cinematic Universe will include new podcasts, newsletters, books (!), and who knows what else. The four hosts remain massive friends and there's no doubt something involving a combination will surface somewhere soon. The episode also features some absolutely touching voice notes from fans and folks who made the show possible. On that note, a massive shout out to our partners at IVM Podcasts, without whom this show would have probably died 300 episodes ago. Thank you to everyone who listened, and recommended, and wrote in to us. We joke that there were 5 Simblified listeners, but we know there are many more. Some of you have even come up to us at music festivals, some have made joke websites for us, and for many of you it's part of your Monday schedule! We're genuinely humbled and thrilled that we had such an impact on your lives and apparently the entire podcasting ecosystem. Our social links are below.

Remember the 2020-2022? That was one heck of a time - and while we were living through it, it felt like EVERYTHING was changing and would stay that way for ever.Well, it's now halfway through 2023 and... Things feel like the old normal, not the new one, in many cases.

We speak to Simblified fan (!) and microbiologist Avraneel Paul on a whole bunch of things related to what happens inside our body! Viruses and bacteria, how vaccines work, how those WBC badasses keep us safe, and so on. Along the way, we also speak about exciting advancements like CRISPR, and explore philosophical questions like whether Covid has changed the field... And what a day in the life of a scientist looks like. There's loads of trivia, loads of simblification and a few bad jokes as well in this two-part episode.

It's another episode of Half Pints, where your panelists come in with a fact each. This time, we look at the origins of high heels, Tony's prediction that a marathon record will be broken, and Chuck wondering if indeed we are back to pre-covid days work-wise. As always, the topics are just excuses for your hosts to make random jokes and observations and among them are some commentary puns, Yes Minister references and more.

The Simblified gang has always been fascinated with the concept of content moderation.

Have you wondered why your partner no longer looks at you with starry eyes? Your Simblified hosts try to figure out this enormously important and vexatious question by dissecting the bestselling book "5 Love Languages" by Gary Chapman.

"The opposite of belonging is fitting in." Having chanced upon this quote, Tony did the logical thing and brought it to the Simblified gang to share their thoughts. In this reflective episode, Naren, Chuck, Srikeit and Tony chat about belonging, vulnerability, their dinner guest list and more.

We've never done a cricket episode mostly because 3/4 of the panel doesn't really care for the sport anymore. But that's not to say we never cared for it. Chuck used to spend a fair bit of his teenage years on Cricinfo's stats pages. Srikeit gorged on Wikipedia. Naren is drawn to anything that has cricket - and by virtue of their presence in PG Wodehouse stories, means he knows a few stories. Tony of course, runs a lovely show called Bits & Pieces with friends. In celebration of the IPL, we bring to you a half pints episode - where there are 4 facts, stats and stories around the lovely sport. We digress (as we usually do) into other memories, stats, moments and stories. Join the gang as we hit this one out of the park.

Chuck recently read Morgan Housel's bestseller, The Psychology of Money. It's a fascinating book that speaks about the mental aspects of saving, wealth creation and investing, rather than the technical aspects. It's a must-read for those in their 20s. In this episode, we discuss some of the points in the book, share our own money stories, and realise that as we get older we're getting more philosophical.

It's a new episode of Simbified half pints, the monthly affair where we come to the table with four random facts. This week: Why are brides in China getting paid for alliances? How did mangoes evolve huge seeds? Why is peaceful Canada fighting over a tiny island?

Wow, our little show has crossed a triple century! (Waves mic to audience) (gets scolded by producer)  Er... Anyway. In 2015 when Chuck and Naren decided to try a small project, who would have thought that it would still be running 8 years later, with a loyal fanbase and two more hosts? To celebrate the milestone, we call on one of the smartest folks we know - Amit Varma of The Seen & The Unseen fame. The history of our shows are intertwined (something we speak about), and Amit had appeared on the live Episode 100 all those years ago. Now, we're all older, wiser, and (in Amit's case) more successful. We speak about all of this in an episode where goofiness turns to profundity, where Wodehouse quotes segue into virtual hugs. Join in for a celebration of this show!

Moral Philosopher and Intelligence Researcher James Flynn wanted to debunk a racist article by UC Berkely professor Arthur Jensen (who was concluding that blacks scored lower on IQ tests because they were genetically inferior). He ended up discovering that far from scoring lower, they were actually doing steadily better, and to his amazement, so was the entire population, regardless of race or ethnicity. This was later called the Flynn Effect and numerous studies across the world, across populations and over time frames confirmed his conclusionsJoin your SImblified Hosts Naren and Tony as they try to explore the effect and what might the possible causes beA great piece on the phenomenon of intelligent people holding biased and stupid views, which we talk about in the episode ishttps://gurwinder.substack.com/p/why-smart-people-hold-stupid-beliefs  Add one part news, one part bad jokes, one part Wikipedia research, one part cult references from spending too much time on the internet, one part Wodehouse quotes, and one part quality puns, and you get Simblified.A weekly podcast to help you appear smarter, to an audience that knows no less!

A few weeks back, the Simblified gang were asked to do a live show for a podcasting event. We've captured the audio of the same to give you, our OG listeners, as a live episode (this is not generosity as much as laziness on our part).  What did we speak about? Well, we thought it being December, we'd encourage people to add content creation to their new year's resolutions. After all, if the 4 of us can do close to 300 (!!!!) episodes of this show, then anyone can create content. We give you our experience, our perspective, some references and hopefully some useful advice. If any of it actually works and you end up starting something, let us know so we can add it to the 'success stories' section of our non-existent website.

Layoffs, plummeting market caps, ambitious plans stalled, bad press... It looks like the majot tech firms just can't catch a break right now. Perhaps it's the universe restoring balance after a breathless upward trajectory for a few years? Perhaps it's people realising they don't need these companies anymore post Covid?  The astute tech observers that is the Simblified panel analyse, deconstruct and predict what might happen to Meta, Alphabet, Twitter (lol), Apple, Amazon, Microsoft and the likes.

Four fun things. Many random discussions.So sometimes, we have a fun story, news story, fact or piece of trivia which we think is good Simblified fodder but not enough for a whole episode. So along came the idea of taking four of these and making them one episode! Introducing Simblified Half Pints: A freshly brewed new format where your four hosts will each bring one fact or story (or whatever, really) to the table and then we yak about it for 10-15 minutes. With the usual Simblified detours of bad jokes, anecdotes, and perhaps something profound too!  In this inaugural episode we look at sparkling water, the FIFA World Cup, anchovies and mosquitoes - thankfully not all at once. We hope you like this new format - let us know what you think. We plan to do this once a month.

For a music fan, there's nothing quite like a live performance. Whether you're the sort that zones out at a classical music show, enjoys happy vibes on the lawns of a sunset music festival, bouncing to a DJ, or letting it all out in a heavy metal moshpit in a seedy club while getting your glasses broken (too specific?) - there is SOMETHING about watching musicians on stage, making music together. Chuck, Srikeit and Naren do a completely unscripted episode about the power of live music, what it means to them, while taking a few deviations that are now par for the course in one of these conversations.  We hope you enjoy it, and let us know what your favourite live music gig was!This episode is dedicated to the person who accosted us during Independence Rock '22 and said they were "a fan of Simblified, but more a fan of Naren"!
