For a country that boasts of its digital public goods infrastructure like Aadhar and UPI, it is a wonder why telecom has been so ignored. After nearly 1500 crore rupees of was reportedly lost to digital fraud in the financial year 2024, the govt's TRAI is finally scrambling to catch up with CPAN or the Calling Name Presentation (CNAP) service, its own version of Truecaller.  Truecaller, the Swedish call-screening company, meanwhile, has been holding the fort for a while now. Users count on it to save them from spam and fraud calls.  While TrueCaller maybe looking like a hero in this situation, it is a private company after all. It is using this opportunity to make money from both users and businesses. But its success in India is also built partially on how inadequate privacy laws are in India. The company has been accused of breaching data privacy norms in the past.  Can TRAI replace Truecaller?  Tune in.(This episode was first published in July, 2024)DAYBREAK UNWIND RECOMMENDATIONS for "coming of age"Rahel: Big Mouth, NetflixSnigdha: The Lives of Girls and Women by Alice Munro and Lady Bird (2017)Atish Deore: The works of PL Deshpande, a Marathi author and playwright Shubhangi: Derry Girls (2018)Brijesh: Where The Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens   Daybreak is now on WhatsApp at +918971108379.

This week, we read Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens Bekah joins me on this episode to discuss:  The dark past of author, Delia Owens, that may or may not influence the plot/characters of the book.  What order you should read the “Where the Crawdads Sing” trifecta including book, movie, and New Yorker article. How this book became a phenomenon among book clubs and Reese Witherspoon fans.  Open your book and press play on a podcast episode that will have you running barefoot into the marsh and talking with all the birds.   Mentioned in the Pairings section of the podcast: DRINK: Sweet Tea with Whiskey TV SHOW - Big Little Lies, Outer Banks, The Last Thing He Told Me BOOK - The Great Alone, To Kill a Mockingbird  MOVIE - Safe Haven, Gone Girl, Girl On The Train, The Woman In the Window   Important links mentioned in the podcast: “The Hunted” - The New Yorker  “Where the Crawdads Sing Author Wanted for Questioning in Murder” - The Atlantic “A Shooting in Zambia” - The New Yorker   Quick Summary: For years, rumors of the “Marsh Girl” have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand. Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched and loved. When two young men from town become intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself to a new life—until the unthinkable happens.  ***  Once you're done listening, hop onto our Instagram and TikTok @rwreadspodcast to give us your thoughts on the discussion and the book. We look forward to hearing from you!    * Disclaimer * At Red Wine Reads, we want to engage in the stories of people from all kinds of backgrounds and experiences. The value of books lies in the power of storytelling and sharing a range of perspectives. We don't want to just read what we know, we want to read stories that open our worldview. And in turn, that means getting into challenging, rewarding conversations. But we are not experts in any field — literature, race relations, politics, etc .— and we know that our reviews of these books come from a place of privilege. We encourage our community of readers to add to these conversations with their own thoughts, critiques, and questions. We want to open up a safe place for people. That being said, we also realize that getting into race, sexuality, gender, and other difficult topics can be triggering. We aim to include content warnings whenever they are applicable but we are not perfect.

It's important to prioritize your own well-being and emotional health.” “Express your love and appreciation in a way that resonates with your partner's love language. Small gestures can make a big impact.”  “Don't be afraid to pursue your dreams, even if it means stepping outside your comfort zone.  Embrace the unknown and take risks.” “Be a joy starter, who notices joy, spreads joy, and is joy.” “Even in our most crushing circumstances, there's joy that is just begging to be noticed.” “Live the kind of life that when you lay your head on the pillow at night, you've said what you need to say, you fixed what you need to fix, and you have lived your life in a way that you are proud of.” “Marriage is humbling, and also, if you're always thinking about how you can help your partner, how you can make their day better, and how you can serve them, then both of you will be filled up.” “A great leader is someone who is always looking to develop the skills of those they lead. They lead from behind, they admit their mistakes, and they inspire others to chase their dreams.” “The best advice I ever received is to forgive. Holding onto grudges and resentment only brings regret.

Dans cet épisode, je reçois Anne-Laure Thomas. Anne-Laure grandit en région parisienne et aime, depuis son plus jeune âge, être au contact des autres. Elle se rêve tour à tour pompière, sage-femme ou encore à la tête d'une agence matrimoniale...un rêve qu'elle n'a par ailleurs pas encore tout à fait abandonné ! Anne-Laure s'orientera finalement vers des études en droit médical avec une spécialité en droit des médias. Elle entre dans a vie active au sein du cabinet de conseil KPMG dans la branche média ou elle effectuera des missions très diverses durant 6 ans. Elle intègre ensuite de grands groupes: La Poste puis la Banque Postale avant d'arriver chez l'Oréal ou elle occupe aujourd'hui le poste de Directrice Diversités, Equité & Inclusion ou elle se démarque par son engagement de longue date. L'engagement tient également chez Anne-Laure à son histoire personnelle. Alors qu'elle est enceinte de son premier enfant, elle découvre que ce dernier est atteint du syndrôme de William Beuren, une sorte d'"accident génétique" qui entraîne, entre autres, une cardiopathie et une déficience intellectuelle et qui concerne à l'époque, 1 naissance sur 25 000. C'est un moment de désespoir pour Anne-Laure qui ne baissera pourtant pas les bras, même lorsqu'une professionnelle de santé lui conseille fortement et sans ménagement de choisir entre son métier et le soutient à son fils. Elle rencontrera un autre parent, François, papa d'un enfant également touché par cette maladie génétique et ensemble, ils décident de s'engager pour rassembler les informations précieuses sur cette maladie qu'il manque trop souvent aux parents. L'association "Autour des Williams" était née. Anne-Laure aura par la suite deux autres enfants. Elle nous raconte comment elle élève cette fratrie autour de son Marius, en enseignant à chacun et chacune la beauté et l'apprentissage de la différence, celle de leur frère et de comment elle applique aussi cette conviction que la diversité et la différence sont des trésors, à sa vie professionnelle. Anne-Laure nous parle avec authenticité de son divorce, qu'elle initie alors même que ses enfants son encore petits, un choix pas évident mais nécéssaire pour rester fidèle à qui elle est. Nous avons aussi parlé des aidants, ces personnes si précieuses qui nous entourent bien souvent et que l'on ne met que trop rarement en lumière. Anne-Laure nous partage également ce qui la ressource au quotidien, l'importance dans sa vie de l'amitié, de l'entourage et des rencontres qui font la vie. Un épisode positif, authentique et bienveillant, à l'image de mon invitée, Anne-Laure Thomas. Belle écoute !
