The range of comedy, light drama and drama series on TV and streaming services in this country is astonishing right now. The days of "diversity" meaning "worthy and tucked away somewhere" are long gone. In fact these days being diverse seems to be a competitive edge - here and overseas. Pax Assadi's sitcom Raised by Refugees is going into its second series. So are Jewish comedy Kid sister, pre-colonial drama Kairakau, trans dramedy Rurangi, and the unique scifi/rural/Asian/sitcom mashup Creamerie.

EPISODE 1: In the first ever episode of Disruptors, Comedy trio Frickin Dangerous Bro (Jamanie Ross, James Roque and Pax Assadi) talk about New Zealand’s comedy scene. How do you navigate an inherently white space as a person of colour? How do you know if you should keep pursuing your art or if it’s time to quit? What does Pax mean when he says “comedy is like adding the honey to the medicine” (a self-confessed, very FOB thing to say)? Disruptors is a podcast series where creatives in Aotearoa talk about how they disrupt with their art.

Dietary Requirements is The Spinoff’s monthly podcast in which we eat, drink and talk about it too, with special thanks to Freedom Farms. This month, we're joined by comedian Pax Assadi to discuss the merits (or lack thereof) of white people food.Growing up in Auckland with an Iranian dad and a Pakistani mum, Pax Assadi enjoyed a diverse culinary upbringing – from biryani to tahdig, cheese toasties to mashed potato with Kaitaia Fire (for breakfast), he developed a taste for it all.Well, not all of it... as Pax tells us, he reckons most white people food is rubbish. Will Alice's freshly baked cheese scones convince him otherwise? (Spoiler alert: yeah nah.)The other hosts boldly attempt to impress our guest with Persian and Pakistani dishes, with Simon even giving tahdig, the notoriously tricky crispy bottom that Iranians live for, a hoon. Will it pass muster with Pax? You'll have to listen to find out...Meanwhile, we discuss constipation, Alice #humblebrags about her recent European travels, Sophie talks about her trip to, er, Sandringham, Tina takes the mic and Simon drops a two-for-the-price-of-one bombshell.
