Send us a textWho are you when you're not trying to fit into a colonial mold? In this spicy solo episode of Bold Brown British, Quarina dives into the messy but empowering journey of decolonizing our identities as brown people in modern British society. From owning your unapologetically desi habits (yes, bring the biryani to work!) to calling out the lingering colonial hangovers like colourism and the “good immigrant” narrative, we're breaking it all down.Through wit, wisdom, and a dash of masala, this episode is a reminder that your culture isn't something to hide—it's something to flaunt. So, grab your chai, samosas, and a notebook because it's time to reclaim your identity with boldness and spice. Support the showTell us your thoughts on instagram @boldbrownandbritish or Visit our Linktree

Gags, Harinder, Kam and Nina catchup on The Desi podcast Desi funerals, we wallow in someone's passing. He's not dead so let's not do that. He's given us so much collective enjoyment and I don't think it's a leap to say brought us all closer together. 15/16, Dortmund, 17/18 CL Journey and Kiev. A year later in Madrid, a season after the title, the way way back 21/22 and then where we are now with a reversal of the 22/23 misfortunes. Everyone will be covering similar things around likes/loves/now/next. We don't have to be different but we do have to be Desi! So, with the chaa on the table next to the biscoot and the barfi, lets do this. As the messages started flooding in, what were your first emotions of it all? What's Klopp taught you or changed for you as a Liverpool fan over the last 8 years? When his tractor and trolley (trahhleee) leaves Anfield to head to pastures new, will Ulla need to teach Klopp to make to the Roti/Sabji for a change or will Klopp outsource it to India? I mean, what's the first thing he's doing on his first day of doing nothing when it's over? Where do we go from here? He's irreplaceable in who he his and how he got this club. He lives life on the touchline exactly as we would at Anfield. What's the innovation we need to look for in the next manager? Who do you want? If you saw Klopp tomorrow, how would you say goodbye?
