PREVIEW: MODI AND XI: Colleague Sadanand Dhume of AEI and WSJ comments on the long standing distrust between India and China -- unlikely to be solved by photos of Modi with Xi and Putin. More. 1922 BOMBAY

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay set the mood by putting on Side 1 of Zeppelin IV, so they can talk about the classic high school comedy 'Fast Times at Ridgemont High.' Bombay starts it off by remembering the time(s) he finished embarrassingly quickly just like Mike Damone when he got a chance with Jennifer Jason Leigh's Stacy. Then the fellas head over to the pool to chat about Phoebe Cates' legendary topless scene that broke VCRs throughout the '80s as being the most rewound scene in the home movie rental era. Besides the nudity, the film had plenty of laughs, and insights to offer about the teenage experience, and gets remembered for crude moments, but packs a wallop emotionally. Lost in the fray is the fact that this raunchy teen comedy written by a very young Cameron Crowe was directed by a woman. The guys relate to their own high school experience of skipping classes and working crappy retail jobs at the mall, and of course they make time for Sean Penn's surfer burnout Spicoli. 

In this episode, we sit down with Sana Javeri Kadri, founder and CEO of Diaspora Co., the single-origin spice company reimagining what an equitable, decolonised spice trade can look like. Growing up in 90s Bombay in a mixed-heritage, progressive family, Sana witnessed firsthand the power of food and culture in shaping identity. After moving to the U.S., she uncovered the lack of transparency in the global spice trade and set out to change it; placing freshness, farmer equity, sustainability, and justice at the core of her mission.We explore Sana's story from Mumbai to California, her queer, progressive approach to leadership, the challenges and triumphs of building Diaspora Co., and why spices aren't just a garnish for special dishes, but the everyday backbone of our lives.(00:00) - Introducing Sana Javeri Kadri(00:55) - Sana's childhood and blended family roots(02:16) - Growing up mixed religion in 90s Bombay(06:16) - Bullying, queerness, privilege and ambition(10:15) - Diasporic nostalgia vs. modern India(12:18) - Sana's culture shock moving to the US(15:01) - Visual art, food politics and storytelling(18:40) - Realising the broken spice trade(20:08) - Why the origins of your spices matter(24:05) - Cancellation fears, female founders & transparency(26:05) - Co-opted language in the food industry(27:29) - Scaling Diaspora Co & measuring true impact(30:23) - Workers' equity & long-term growth goals(33:23) - Educating consumers without preaching(34:39) - Making spices more accessible(36:15) - Intentional vs. easy consumption & capitalism fatigue(37:16) - Balancing founder life, step-parenting & partnership(43:03) - Why Diaspora Co is inherently queer(46:01) - Storytelling and branding(47:02) - Climate change and regenerative farming (52:18) - Tariffs and challenges of scaling globally(53:33) - Diaspora Co expanding into Ocado & Whole Foods(55:14) - The Diaspora Co cookbook(56:31) - Branding, packaging and in-house design process(58:23) - What does Sana have strong game in?Find Diaspora Co on: https://www.diasporaco.com/ Mitali is wearing the Käma choker & Mango Slices by Surmeyi: https://surmeyi.com/To be the first to get updates on new episodes, please do give us a subscribe or follow!

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay quit their jobs at the diner kitchen in dramatic fashion so they can rush home and talk about the second half of 'Heat.' In the continuation of their special two-part coverage of the movie, they discuss the back half that features the greatest shootout scene caught on camera. It's 30 years later and the scene is still untouched, and filled with minute details from Michael Mann as the actors clearly displayed military handling of the weapons, and the director even made sure the bags of money were close to how much they'd weigh in real life. After shattering the cerebral touch of the first half of the flick with the shootout, the movie shifts to a revenge thriller as Rober De Niro's McCauley goes on a mission to tie up loose ends, while Al Pacino's Vincent's home life falls to pieces. Both men are forced to deal with the consequences for their poor decisions, as the film ends with a violent encounter that solidifies their feelings for one another. Andy and Bombay then take a moment, wipe away their own tears, and bask in the beauty of their favorite movie.

Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHThe movie kicks off and it feels a lot more zany then the other two. Cut to Eden Hall - the ducks are all getting full ride athletic scholarships to be the JV hockey team at Eden Hall. But it's not all fun and games...Bombay tells Charlie that he's not going to be their coach. Charlie is mad. But at least he still has the Ducks. Charlie and the rest of the Ducks show up the first day and make quite the entrance. They get to their happy place - the ice - and immediately begin to play lasso just like the good ol' days. Suddenly, former NHL player Ted Orion comes skating up. He's the new coach. And he is very strict and no one hates him more than Charlie. The Ducks struggle to fit in at this school and are constantly bullied by the Varsity team who Coach Orion warned them not to mess with until they play at the JV Variety showdown. Coach tells Charlie that he's not the captain, moves the players to different positions, starts Julie the Cat over Goldberg, and moves Banks to Varsity. Charlie takes a liking to this girl named Linda and invites her to their first game, which she comes to. It's time for the first game and they absolutely dominate through 2 periods thanks to all of their silly gimmicks. 3rd period begins and they just forget how to play. They give up a ton of goals after not playing playing any defense. They give up 9 goals in one period and the game ends in a tie. Coach is mad. Charlie threatens to quit. And the varsity team puts their clothes in the shower. This leads to a full on prank war. Frozen jackets. Massive dinner bills. Full mission impossible stuff. This leads to an unsanctioned JV vs Varsity game that gets broken up by Orion. He tells them to take off their Duck jerseys. Charlie & Fulton refuse and quit. After a day of tomfoolery, Fulton decides to return to Eden Hall and Charlie is very sad. To make matters worse, Hans passes away. Bombay shows up late to the funeral. Bombay wakes Charlie up out of a slumber and tells him he's got some stuff to show him. They show up at Eden Hall and Charlie tells him that Orion's career ended when the team moved to Dallas and he stayed to care for his paraplegic daughter. Bombay tells Charlie the background story on how he first came to coach the Ducks and says he told Orion that Charlie was the heart and soul of the team, and he hoped that both Orion and Charlie would learn something from each other. The next day, Charlie shows up and tells Orion that he is ready to play two wake hockey. He's happy to have Charlie back. But the Dean shows up before they leave and tells them they're all losing their scholarships.Luckily, Bombay is still a lawyer and comes into a board meeting and threatens to sue them unless they reinstate their scholarships which the board agrees to. The Varsity team comes over and tells them they're going down at the JV/Varsity game, agree that if the JV wins, they become the Ducks, and they get Banks back too for the game. It's time. The JV/Varsity game and Orion brings back the Duck jerseys.Throughout the game, the Varsity dominates on offense. However, the Ducks play good defense and manage to keep the game scoreless after two periods. During the second intermission, Portman shows up ready to join the team. He immediately gets ejected. It all comes down to Charlie passing it back to Goldberg at the last second who scores. The ducks win 1-0!They all celebrate and Charlie sees that Bombay was in the stands this whole time. The Eden Hall banner with the Ducks' logo drops down & Bombay then departs the rink with a smile amid a sea of cheering fans.

It's Don Tibbles and he wants Bombay to coach a team representing the United States in the Junior Goodwill Games in Los Angeles.You'd think maybe there'd be an open try out. There's not. He just gets the Ducks back together thanks to Charlie.Team USA is going to consists of the Ducks and 5 new players:  Luis Mendoza, a fast skater who can't stop, Dwayne Robertson, a cowboy who is good with the puck, Julie "The Cat" Gaffney,  a goalie that will give Goldberg a run for his money, Ken Wu, a junior Olympic figure skater, and Dean Portman, who is a new enforcer.During the first practice, the teams tutor comes in.

Bombay immediately puts on the moves. The first practice is rocky, but that's nothing some line dancing and country music can't solve.They have 1 school lesson and they're off to Los Angeles to get started! Up first, Trinidad & Tobago. Tough that USA has to play 2 teams at once but what can ya do. They dominate. The next day, at a press conference, Team Iceland shows up and the coach says TEAM USA IS GOING DOWN, THAT'S WHERE THEY'RE GOING! That's coach and ex-NHL player Wolf "The Dentist" Stansson. More on him later. Bombay begins to enjoy the fancy things that Dom Tibbles is giving him and begins to leave the team by themselves more which causes some issues. One night, Fulton & Portman are out past curfew and they see Bombay out on a date with one of the assistant coaches from Iceland.Bombay walks into the locker room the next day in a fancy suite and his slick back hair. The vibes are off. It's time to play Iceland for the first time. It does not go well. They get blown out 12-1 and Tibbles threatens to fire him if he doesn't get this figured out. He yells at the team and they get real mad. On a mandatory off day given by Michelle,  the players go play some street hockey, against a team led by a kid who has been trash talking them at all the games. His name is Russ and he blows their minds with his knuckle-puck.After a kick in the pants by Yan, Bombay goes to skate to clear his mind.In their match against Germany, Bombay fails to arrive on time cuz I guess he lost track of time while skating? I dunno man. Charlie asks Michelle to coach and she does her best but the team is struggling.  Bombay finally arrives with his duck call which we all know is duck for "I'm sorry" and the team gets straight to business with the Flying V and win the game. Bombay and Yan go full Mr Miagi and teach all the kids how to use their special skills. Bombay finds out that Banks has a hurt wrist and tells him he has to bench him. But Charlie has found his replacement - Russ and his knuckle-puck. At the last team practice, Bombay wants to have some fun with a beach ball. The Dentist shows up, squashes their ball, and challenges Bombay to a 1 on 1 game. Bombay is killing him when The Dentists nails his knee with his stick intentionally. It's time for the championship and Banks walks in to show that he's been healed. Only problem is his roster spot has been filled. So Charlie offers to give up his spot and become a coach. Bombay does not try to talk him out of it because Charlie sucks at hockey. The game is off to a real rocky start and they go into intermission down 4-1. So they head into the locker room and Bombay gives the classic "ducky fly together" speech and Yan surprises everyone with Ducks uniforms because there's no rule in the play book against changing jerseys during the game. And it works! Thanks to some clever play, the Ducks tie it up. The championship comes down to a shootout. It's 4-3. Iceland has one more shot to tie it up. Naturally, Bombay puts in Julie the cat as goalie. She stops it and the Ducks, I mean Team USA, wins!!!The team heads home and spends some time around the fire as they sing we are the champions together.

On the podcast today I am joined by Kirin Narayan, emerita professor at the College of Asia and the Pacific at the Australian National University. Kirin is joining me to talk about her new book, Cave of my Ancestors: Vishwakarma and the Artisans of Ellora published by Chicago University Press in 2024, and in 2025 as an Indian edition by HarperCollins India. As a young girl in Bombay, Kirin Narayan was enthralled by her father's stories about how their ancestors had made the ancient rock-cut cave temples at Ellora. Recalling those stories as an adult, she was inspired to learn more about the caves, especially the Buddhist worship hall known as the “Vishwakarma cave.” Immersing herself in family history, oral traditions, and works by archaeologists, art historians, scholars of Buddhism, Indologists, and Sanskritists, in Cave of my Ancestors Narayan set out to answer the question of how this cave came to be venerated as the home of Vishwakarma, the god of making in Hindu and Buddhist traditions. Part scholarship, part detective story, and memoir, Narayan's book leads readers through centuries of history, offering a sensitive meditation on devotion, wonder, and all that connects us to place, family, the past, and the divine.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay decided to bring their degenerate sensibilities to a kids classic as they discussed 'Goonies.' Andy starts with a bang as he remembers playing around with dynamite like the gang uses in the film, but the results were far more frightening than what was depicted on screen. Then the boys talk about a movie that found the perfect '80s alchemy, and is so steeped in nostalgia it seems slightly AI-created. First they tackle the tough subjects, such as 60% of the film's runtime revolving around ripping on Chunk being overweight, and Sloth being mentally challenged. In the case of Chunk the on-camera shaming seemed to work as the real life actor went on to become a major player in Hollywood. It wasn't only those characters who had it rough, but Andy makes a case for the Fratelli family, who besides their murderous traits are just your typical Long Island crew. Bombay recalls the movie inspiring him and friends to go on an underground adventure in the sewers, and how it was far more harrowing than this Richard Donner-directed flick made it appear. Basically the episode devolves into the guys confessing all their sins just like Chunk being interrogated, except with less stories about pouring puke on people at the theater. By the end of the ep you'll find yourself doing the Truffle Shuffle.

When Happi Co. CEO Sam Rockwell partnered with Snoop Dogg and his son, Cordell Broadus, to launch Dr. Bombay Ice Cream, the team set out to disrupt a stagnant market with bold flavors and culturally resonant branding. With national retail placement and projected first-year sales of $20 million, the brand quickly made its mark. Now, as Rockwell plans the next phase—marketing, fundraising, and expanding into new markets—he must also navigate the dynamics of a creator-led brand, balancing roles and staying nimble and authentic. Sam Rockwell and Harvard Business School professor Bill Kerr join host Brian Kenny to discuss Kerr's case, “Dr. Bombay Ice Cream,” which explores the launch and growth of a lifestyle brand built on cultural storytelling and entrepreneurial ambition.

Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTH The movie starts harder than any kids movie has ever started before. The movie? Intense. And we see a little Gordon Bombay get told from his coach that it all comes down to him and losing isn't an option, he proceeds to miss the goal and lose.Cut to present day, Gordon Bombay is now a brash defense attorney that wants to win at all costs. After winning his latest case, he celebrates with some drinking and driving. He gets pulled over and that's not good.This gets back to his boss, Mr. Ducksworth. He puts him on paid leave and tells him he's been given 500 hours of community service coaching pee-wee hockey.Speaking of hockey, we meet the team. A group of rag tag kids who love pranking random people with dog poop. They also love hockey despite the fact that they suck at it.Coach Bombay gets out there and sees the team. They're currently 0-9. He starts by telling them he doesn't like kids. He tells them to scrimmage while he gets on a phone call in his limo. The kids don't scrimmage. Instead, they jump on the limo and begin to shake it. They get inside and demand a ride when Charlie's mom, the mother of one of the kids on the team, shows up, yells at Bombay and makes Charlie come home.  Wouldn't you know it, their first game is against the Hawks - Bombay's old team that is still coached by his old coach, Reilly. The Hawks are a legit hockey team. District 5? Not so much. They don't even have the right equipment. They get absolutely destroyed. Convinced that they can't win with their play, Bombay teaches them how to take the fall, act hurt, and get indignant. Charlie's not having and refuses to play by Bombay's silly rules.Bombay, feeling a bit lost, goes to talk to his old mentor Hans who gives him the kick in the pants he needs to remember his love of hockey.He goes to apologize to Charlie and his mom and ends up staying for dinner. He is feeling inspired and convinces Ducksworth to sponsor the team.Bombay is suddenly the greatest coach of all time. They even tie a game.Bombay recruits three new players: siblings Tommy and Tammy Duncan, who are skilled figure skaters, and Fulton Reed, a giant who shoots a puck like a bullet out of a gun.Bombay discovers that due to rezoning, Hawks' star Adam Banks should be playing for the Ducks, and forces Reilly to transfer him. While arguing with Reilly, Bombay sarcastically says that the kids don't deserve to live. They take that personally for some reason and refuse to play the next game.Ducksworth calls Bombay and tells him he either lets Banks play for the Hawks or he's fired. Bombay says quack quack quack and leaves to go make up with the kids.The Ducks begins to win a lot thanks to their regained trust of Bombay and the addition of Banks, despite the fact that he is a cake-eater. They make it to the championship against the Hawks. The Hawks strike early and go up 3-0. Reilly wants to make sure it's a blow out by ordering his players to take Banks out. Literally puts him on a stretcher.Bombay tells Reilly he's going down and go gives the pep talk of all pep talks. They pull out all the stops. Fulton's big time. Figure skating. The flying V. and finally, when they need it the most, it's the triple deke to win the game.They celebrate by Bombay kissing Charlie's mom in front of everyone which is out of line if you ask me.The movie ends with Bombay boarding a bus to go try out for the minors again, his dream alive again. But promises he'll be back for next season no matter what. 

Alka Joshi spent 10 years working on her debut novel, The Henna Artist, before it was published in March 2020, just before the world locked down as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Then, a few months later, Reese Witherspoon selected it as a Reese's book club, changing the trajectory of Joshi's life and writing career forever. At a time when many debut artists were struggling to connect with their audiences, Joshi was zooming into libraries, bookstores, and book clubs big and small, and finding her people in the process. Five years later, Joshi has published two sequels to The Henna Artist and a new standalone novel, Six Days in Bombay, a coming-of-age novel about an Anglo-Indian nurse who travels Europe to carry out the final wishes of one of her patients. In our conversation, we talk about her whirlwind success, her fascination with the years leading up to India's independence from Britain, the artist who inspired her latest story, and her next project.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay decide to go to shore and get a bigger podcast, as they discuss one of the greatest films ever made, 'Jaws.' Bombay starts off the episode by relating how difficult it can be fitting in when you're new to a small town like Amity, and how it almost led to him getting arrested as a youth. Then the fellas cast off to talk about the movie. First by pouring one out for the opening girl who gets got by Jaws, Chrissy and her wonderful sweater puppies. Then there's discussion about why Alex Kintner, who was played by an actor with the last name Vorhees, maybe deserved to die. Plus, the guys talk about the three main leads who helped elevate this simple tale, and how Robert Shaw was a real life heavy drinker who didn't care for the cut of Richard Dreyfuss' jib. Add all that with the true arrival of John Williams, and the brilliance of a young Spielberg who was forced to improvise, and you have the birth of the summer blockbuster.

Why did Bombay HC acquit all 12 convicts in 2006 Mumbai blasts case?

Join hosts Clay Edwards, Shaun Yurtkuran, and Lindsey Beckham for a lively Thirsty Thursday episode of "Uncensored," packed with candid banter, local insights, and hot-button debates. Kicking off with nostalgic chats about cheap beers and vodkas—debating if all vodkas taste the same, from Pinnacle to Grey Goose—the trio dives into spirits like gin (Tanqueray vs. Bombay) and the golden age of liquor packaging. They shout out local spots like RJ Singh's gas station for craft beers and discuss new ventures, including a massive pickleball entertainment complex in Flowood and the trendy Taste restaurant in Ridgeland. Clay plugs his FAFO merchandise at buyfafo.com and invites listeners to the Wildlife Extravaganza at the Clyde Muse Center, featuring celebs like Duck Dynasty's Buck Commander crew, Heather Smith from Naked and Afraid, and Andy Gibson, with gun giveaways and family fun. Shifting to news, they unpack breaking stories: a Wall Street Journal report on a Trump-Epstein birthday card sparking lawsuits and backlash; a salacious Hattiesburg senator scandal involving an affair, subpoenas, and ties to a former Miss Mississippi; and alienation of affection laws in Mississippi. The hosts react to Obama's recent podcast urging boys to have gay mentors for empathy, sparking discussions on masculinity, fatherless homes, and Democratic confusion over losing male voters. Delving deeper, they tackle Jackson's crime wave—debating gang influence (70% per estimates), rap culture's impact (from NBA YoungBoy to local sets), poverty as a choice vs. circumstance, and desensitization from video games and media. They contrast urban "fight or flight" life with white suburban extremes like cults, emphasizing accountability over excuses like systemic racism. Raw, unfiltered opinions on local politics, culture rot, and positive steps under Jackson's new mayor round out this engaging 2-hour chat. Tune in for laughs, debates, and real talk—catch them live on WYAB or online!

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay got the whole wide world, in their hands, as they discuss 'Con Air.' Bombay opens the proceedings by telling the time he had his own flight from hell from Asia which involved being awake for 36 hours after a bender, with his arm in a sling. Then the fellas talk about one of the goofiest studio movies of the '90s, a film where Jerry Bruckheimer tapped a gun for hire to do his best Michael Bay impression, and the KY budget was record breaking as everyone glistened on screen. Nic Cage's flowing locks, and hackey inconsistent sometimes southern, sometimes Cajun accent, gets top billing, but it's an insanely stacked cast. John Malkovich chews scenery to degrees that'll make your jaw hurt, Danny Trejo is an ultra predatory latin Pepe le Pew, and Steve Buscemi is a poetic psychopath who wears heads for hats. Meanwhile, approximately 58% of the plot revolves around Cage's Poe securing insulin for his friend. None of it makes sense, but it ends with not one, but two wild crash scenes that tear up the majority of the Las Vegas strip. Whether you love the movie or find it overly cartoonish you'll want to tune in for this episode ... "or the bunny gets it." 

Where the PoSH Act ends, only the penal code is left standing. But criminal prosecution is a blunt, punishing tool, replete with all the obstacles the PoSH inquiry was designed to soften.

He joins Herlinda Heras and Harry Duke who is sitting in for Steve Jaxon on Brew Ha Ha today. Mark has brought some Reality Czech Pils, which won a Gold Medal in the Pilsner category, out of 167 entries. Pilsners are not an easy beer to make. They are cold fermented and takes a lot longer to make. Moonlight's Pilsner is not filtered, but to make it clear they use an enzyme which takes out the solids and the glutens in the beer. It is not registered as gluten free but it is very low in gluten. Visit our sponsor Pizzaleah in Windsor for the finest pizza menu and the most authentic flavors around!

Bestselling author Alka Joshi returns to discuss her newest historical fiction novel, Six Days in Bombay. Inspired by the enigmatic life and mysterious death of Indian painter Amrita Sher-Gil—dubbed the Frida Kahlo of India—Joshi weaves a rich narrative through the eyes of a fictional nurse, Sona, who cares for a dying artist and embarks on a journey across 1930s Europe to fulfill the artist's final request. With vivid research, immersive sensory detail, and reflections on identity, loss, and artistic legacy, Joshi and host Jane Healey dive deep into the novel's origins, character development, historical settings, and Joshi's creative process—including updates on her adaptation of The Henna Artist and a preview of her next novel.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay take a Los Angeles city bus to the studio to record their 'Speed' episode. Bombay gets it started by reminiscing about the time he saw two girls getting harassed on public transit, and how it wound up in a fortuitous meeting. Then there's a "Pop quiz, hot shot!" as the fellas do their best to bring Dennis Hopper-esque unhinged energy to discuss this '90s classic. Besides Hopper's looney turn as a villain, there's a ton to like in this wonderfully-paced actioner that's filled with wonderful character actors in supporting roles, and bolstered by two undeniable leads that are propelled into ludicrous situation after ludicrous situation. Perhaps none more unbelievable than the fact that nearly everyone taking the bus were on a first name basis with each other. On top of all that there are multiple practical F/X set pieces that clearly cost the lives of several crew members. When talking about all this, the guys do their best to bring undeniable charm to the proceedings, similar to Sandra Bullock's star-making role. Much like an unreliable city bus you have to take to work, you won't want to miss this ep.

In this hilariously unfiltered AMA episode, Cyrus and Shamik tackle the truly important questions of our time. With the rail budget going up, should we expect trains to finally run on time—or just more confident announcements? They debate what one really needs to survive a 4 km walk to a Guns N’ Roses concert: water, willpower, or a cardboard cutout of Slash. There’s talk of a potential Hera Pheri: South Bombay Edition, a suggestion that Neeraj Chopra might just double as a missile launcher, and whether Uorfi Javed’s Cannes moment has emotionally prepared us for her Met Gala debut. Plus, is the $3500 iPhone actually just an “iLoan” now? Should AppleCare come with financial counselling? And with the IPL being rained out left and right, is it time to rename it the Indian Puddle League—or just switch to water polo? All this and more, on a rain-soaked, tech-broke, fashion-forward episode of Cyrus Says.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The second and final extract (45:54) in this episode is from the sixth talk in London 1961, and is titled: Respectability and Conditioning. Each episode of the Krishnamurti podcast is based on a significant theme of his talks.
