In this episode Shabnum is joined by Rajiv Menon, a producer working in LA with a PhD from NYU in Masculinity and Global Pop Culture. Shabnum and Rajiv talk through a series of issues in our understanding of what Toxic Masculinity is today - starting with the question, "What is Toxic Masculinity?" We will deep dive into how a seemingly buzzworded concept can actually provide a rich vocabulary with which to have meaningful discussions on how masculinity, when purported in negative ways, can become harmful to both men and women in a society. We will also talk about how both men and women have to work together to combat a toxic form of masculinity, and how South Asian men in the west consistently facing the uphill battle of an emasculated identity coming from characters such as Apu on the Simpsons need to balance that identity with the identity of the "provider" or the "dutiful son" being thrown at them from their South Asian families. Join us in this discussion as we explore the challenges of being a South Asian male, and the role all of us have to play in making sure we are expressing masculinity in healthy ways.

In this episode we discuss the Golden Age of South Asian content that we seem to be enjoying in America. Shabnum and Khan talk to Sujata Day, (as seen on Insecure and Awkward Black Girl) who tells us about her latest venture writing/directing/producing Definition Please, and by Rajiv Menon, a producer that's had a windy path to a job in entertainment but loves to bridge the gap between South Asian and North American content. We talk about what kind of content inspired us all growing up to do what we do now, and how the small pieces of South Asian focused content that see the light of day have to carry the unfair burden of representing all of us. There's space for all of us in this industry, so when are we going to see the South Asian Barry Jenkins, Ava DuVernay, Christopher Nolan? We talk about the troubles of playing an Indian character in America, and how it would be difficult to get cast if you "didn't look Indian enough," and yet struggled to get cast in anything mainstream. However, the tide is definitely turning, and we explore what role streaming platforms such as Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Hulu have played. We really hope you join us on this journey, as we covered the gamut of South Asian content having its heyday today.
