Welcome to a new episode of the WAB Podcast. Today, we're exploring how student leadership, innovation, and the power of science come together to connect and inspire. Joining us are members of WAB's High School STEMx Club, Grade 11 students Hannah, Utkarsh, and Shane, along with their teacher and advisor, Paul Wagenaar. Together, they share how a group of passionate students reimagined what science learning could look like, culminating in WAB's first-ever interschool Science Day. STEMx began as a student-led initiative aimed at making science more engaging for younger learners. The group started by running hands-on workshops in the Elementary and Middle Schools. As Hannah, the club's leader, shared: “Last year, we decided to expand our impact.” For her, what makes the club meaningful is its inclusivity: "Some members aren't planning to study STEM in university or pursue it as a career. They joined for their interest." Driven by curiosity and a desire to break stereotypes, like the idea that STEM is only for the ‘smart' or mathematically inclined, the club set out to create a platform that showcased science as creative, hands-on, and socially relevant. The result was Science Day, an inter-school event exploring how science can help solve real-world issues, including challenges faced by refugees. Utkarsh, who joined after being recruited by Hannah at the club fair, shared his motivation: “I wanted to see if I could use what I learned in the classroom and help other people enjoy it.” Shane added, “We're both very passionate about science and math, so we joined together.” With encouragement from their advisor, science teacher Paul Wagenaar, the club took ownership of the planning process. “They're very self-motivated,” Paul said. “Many of them even contacted the administration themselves to organize the event.” But bringing Science Day to life wasn't without setbacks. Faced with low early registration numbers, the team considered cancelling. “It was disappointing, especially for our grade 12 students and Mr. Wagenaar, who wouldn't be here next year,” said Hannah. She recalled nearly giving up—until a mentor reminded her that this was just their minimum viable version. “It won't be perfect, but it's a first step.” It reframed the challenge as part of the process, not the end of it. The team stepped up their efforts, sending out “a hundred messages a day,” and managed to rally enough interest to make Science Day a reality. “The moment the opening ceremony began, it came to me that it's actually happening,” Hannah reflected. “A very small idea turned out to be so big and successful.” Utkarsh saw the impact in real time: “I saw them actually having fun and being creative. That's what we wanted, people having fun doing science and solving real problems.” Shane, who led a catapult-building activity, added, “I could tell the participants had a lot of fun. That was great.” For Paul, the highlight was witnessing the students lead the entire process: “Seeing the club members sharing their passion, figuring out ways to solve problems when things went wrong was a joyous moment for me.” Science Day was about testing ideas, navigating challenges, and seeing how student-led learning can have an impact. It's a reminder of what students can accomplish when given the space to lead.
In a deeply moving conversation, Utkarsh Narang shares his remarkable journey from being a physiotherapist in India to becoming an influential executive coach and TEDx speaker in Australia. His story resonates with anyone seeking meaningful change, as he describes how a LinkedIn message unexpectedly opened the door to a new life abroad, proving that sometimes the most significant opportunities arise when we least expect them. Through his personal experiences with fear and uncertainty, Utkarsh demonstrates that courage isn't about the absence of fear, but rather about taking small, intentional steps forward despite it. The heart of Utkarsh's message lies in his unique perspective on leadership and purpose, beautifully illustrated through the story of a NASA janitor who saw his role not just as cleaning floors, but as contributing to putting a man on the moon. This powerful anecdote underscores his belief that true leadership is about becoming the best human being possible, creating safe spaces for others, and approaching challenges with empathy and authenticity. His insights remind us that every role, no matter how seemingly small, can contribute to something greater when viewed through the lens of purpose. Drawing from the ancient wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita and yogic philosophy, Utkarsh offers transformative insights about living in the present moment and embracing non-attachment. His message is both profound and practical: purpose doesn't need to be grandiose; it can be found in the simple act of doing our best and being fully present in each moment. Through his words, we learn that true fulfillment comes not from external achievements, but from stripping away societal expectations and connecting with our authentic selves. The conversation serves as a powerful reminder that in our quest for meaning and success, the most important journey is becoming the best version of ourselves while helping others do the same.

Private space travel once belonged in the realm of science fiction—but today, celebrities like Katy Perry are booking tickets on Blue Origin, and billionaires are launching rockets. In this episode, Dhruva and Utkarsh explore the growing role of private companies in space exploration and whether the shift away from government-led missions is cause for celebration or concern.They delve into the tension between public and private funding: Should space exploration serve collective scientific goals or market incentives? Is "move fast and break things" the right ethos for a domain where failure can mean catastrophe? And as access to space becomes commercialized, who really benefits?Supporters of private spaceflight argue it accelerates innovation, lowers costs, and inspires a new generation. But critics warn of widening inequalities, neglected public priorities, and the commodification of what many view as a shared human frontier.Beyond rockets and revenue, this conversation grapples with deeper questions of purpose, responsibility, and who gets to write humanity's next chapter among the stars.
Selective admissions have long defined access to elite universities but a number of scholars are challenging this model, arguing that it reinforces privilege and entrenches inequality. In this episode, Dhruva and Utkarsh examine the case for replacing selective admissions with a lottery among qualified applicants. The discussion draws on John Rawls's concept of the veil of ignorance, and Michael Sandel's critique of meritocracy, which highlights how systems of selection often obscure privilege and foster a corrosive hubris among so-called “winners,” who come to believe their success is entirely self-made.Advocates of the lottery system argue that it could democratize access, reduce stress and competition, and promote a more just distribution of opportunity. Critics counter that such a shift risks undermining academic standards, devaluing individual achievement, and replacing one set of biases with another.This conversation goes beyond admissions policy and raises deeper questions about fairness, equity, and justice.
In this episode, learn how Utkarsh Narang transitioned from physical therapist to executive coach and discover how to overcome fear and societal expectations to reinvent your own career. Utkarsh shares his personal journey, emphasizing the importance of self-discovery, confidence, and embracing uncertainty. Gain valuable insights into identifying your "why", stepping outside your comfort zone, and ultimately authoring your own life story.

Ashoka University, India's top liberal arts university, charges over a million rupees per year in tuition - three times the yearly income of the average Indian. Williams College, one of America's best-known liberal arts colleges, charges 68,000 dollars per year - more than the average yearly income in the US. Despite its cost, the popularity of the liberal arts system is growing. Many new universities across the world - such as Krea in India or Ashesi in Ghana- are using the liberal arts model of requiring students to take classes across STEM, social sciences and the humanities and giving them time to decide on their majors. Even universities that require students to pick a major before joining, are increasingly encouraging them to gain skills in other fields. What role does liberal arts play in the future of education? Should students be required to take classes in a variety of disciplines, or be allowed to focus on the fields they like? And how practical is it to expand the liberal arts model to millions of students across the world? Utkarsh and Dhruva draw on their experiences at universities such as Harvard, Oxford, Ashoka and INSEAD to debate the value of the liberal arts.
Unicorns! Edtech! Startup bros! Welcome to a new episode of Arguable, where we dive into the world of venture capital and startups and try to separate hype from truth. Seven of the world's eight most highly-valued public companies were once venture capital-based tech startups. Venture capital and technology are eating the world. But what is VC, really? How does it work, and how does it make decisions about which startups to invest in? As we celebrate billion-dollar startups and as venture capitalists become media gurus and pundits, it's time to take a step back and ask some difficult questions. Has the growth of venture capital been good for entrepreneurship and innovation? What are the drawbacks and limitations of venture capital? And what kinds of tech entrepreneurship could we imagine beyond venture capital? Bringing together experience from academia, investment and building businesses of their own, Utkarsh and Dhruva try to understand the future of innovation and startups in India and beyond.
Welcome to the third episode of "Arguable," where we, Utkarsh and Dhruva, dive into the changing nature and value of work as we know it. We kick things off by dusting off John Maynard Keynes' crystal ball from 1930. Remember when he boldly predicted we'd all be living the 15-hour workweek dream by now? Spoiler alert: we're not. But why? We'll unpack this economic plot twist and why we're still chained to our desks instead of sipping piña coladas on the beach. Fast forward to today, and we're staring down the barrel of a Goldman Sachs report that's got everyone's circuits frying. Three hundred million jobs potentially replaced by AI? That's not just a new industrial revolution; it's a whole new economic dimension! The four most dangerous words used by pundits are, ‘This time it's different.' We follow their cue and explore whether this time it really is different. We're not just talking about machines taking over assembly lines. We're talking about AI potentially writing your next novel, diagnosing your illnesses, or even arguing your court cases. Is this the dawn of a utopian future or the prelude to a jobless dystopia? We navigate the choppy waters between techno-optimism and techno-skepticism, exploring why we should be both thrilled and terrified about our silicon-powered future. Will AI be our loyal sidekick, freeing us up for more creative pursuits? Or will it be the ultimate job thief, leaving us all twiddling our thumbs? Voltaire once said, "Work saves us from three great evils: boredom, vice, and need." Would we still work if AI-induced productivity made work unnecessary? There are reasons to believe we would. That's why we go into the Universal Basic Income debate. Tune in and tell us what you think. Mentioned: 1. Economic Possibilities for our Grandchildren: John Maynard Keynes 2. The US labor market is automating and becoming more flexible: Goldman Sachs 3. Can This Country Show Europe How to Compete Again?: The New York Times 4.

Welcome to the second episode of "Arguable," where Dhruva Bhat and Utkarsh Amitabh engage in a discussion about the role of universities in political discourse. Between them, Dhruva and Utkarsh have studied at some of India and the world's top universities: Harvard, Oxford, Wharton, INSEAD and Ashoka. They bring their experience in education to the question: should universities take political stances, or should they remain neutral? In this podcast, we talk about the history of protest and political statements at universities, the growing distrust in higher education globally, and the benefits of a bottom-up versus a top-down approach to political discourse. Along the way, we explore the challenges of addressing diversity and inclusion in higher education, debating how universities can balance the need for fairness in admissions with the goal of fostering a diverse academic environment. What does this mean for the future of higher education and its role in society? And how should universities navigate the fine line between political engagement and neutrality? Tune in to this episode of "Arguable" to find out.
Welcome to the inaugural episode of "Arguable," where friends and debate enthusiasts Utkarsh Amitabh and Dhruva Bhat kick off a series designed to challenge your thinking and sharpen your ability to navigate tricky debates. In this episode, they tackle a compelling question: can you achieve more good by earning as much money as possible and donating it, or by choosing a career with a direct impact? Along the way, we dissect the principles of Effective Altruism, explore the power of role models, and analyze the balance between following one's passion and pursuing practicality in career choices. What can the examples of Tesla and Edison tell us about how to make change in the world? What is the role of the arts in doing good? And what does this mean for your life and career? Mentioned: * 80,000 Hours: https://80000hours.org/ * “What “We Owe the Future by Will MacAskill * "The Infinite Game" by Michael Lewis * "How to Be Famous" by Cass Sunstein Utkarsh Amitabh is the founder of Network Capital (networkcapital.tv), one of the world's largest mentorship platforms that empowers 7.5 million school students and 200,000+ young professionals to build meaningful careers.

Often as I sit and talk story with my guest, I have such a fun, therapeutic experience that before I know it twenty, or thirty minutes have flown by. This is how it was as I visited with Utkarsh Narang.Today, Utkarsh is a happiness coach but as he tells his story, he recalls just how his life path took him from New Delhi, India to Melbourne, Australia with a detour or two along the way.When I say Utkarsh is a happiness coach I should say that he feels everyone needs a little happiness in life and he's just around to provide the necessary nudge to get folks on their journey. He's a fan of the following quote from Mahatma Gandhi which I too fully embrace, "Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.”https://www.facebook.com/ignitedneurons

Utkarsh, aka UTK the INC, comes in knowing the rules. He takes his shoes off, washes his hands, and shows off his new $15,000 card that he pulled, pack fresh, the day before (a 1/10 Prizms Gold Rookie Signatures Anthony Edwards that has since been BGS graded 9.5 gem mint). Utkarsh isn't just a solid guy and big time actor (Pitch Perfect, Free Guy, Mulan, The Mindy Project, The Muppets, Brockmire, Key & Peele, Brittany Runs a Marathon, and currently starring in CBS' #1 hit, Ghosts)... He's also a LEGIT free-style rapper who chops hard on the beat nearly (well, kinda' nearly) as hard as Rick bops hard in the paint. #GlassmanBoppers #IAmPhenomenal Since 2005, Ambudkar has been a part of hip-hop improv group "Freestyle Love Supreme." On the pod, Utkarsh talks about how he originated the role of Aaron Burr in the developmental readings of "Hamilton," how his drinking may have gotten in the way of him continuing that role, but also how that experience changed his life for the better, allowing him to find his sobriety (currently at 8 years sober as of this recording).
