Ep. 27: Smash the patriarchy

Patriarchy. Its a word we hear a lot these days, but what does it mean exactly? Who or what is the patriarchy? And why does it need to be smashed? Joel Pereira and Tushar Abhichandani have as guest Karanjeet Kaur, senior journalist and Creative Editor at Arre, and that's exactly what we're talking about.

At its very core, the patriarchy is a social system in which men hold the power and women are collectively excluded from it. We speak about the intrinsic unfairness of this system, the unseen effects, and even its unlikely victims, men themselves. Click through to hear more.

From holding court in drawing rooms they have moved on to the much wider canvas of Whatsapp forwards. Who are these people who confidently squeeze out rubbish from everything they have read on twitter? On this podcast, Editor and Creative Producer Joel Pereira along with the Writer and Stand-up Comedian Tushar Abhichandani, attempt to counter them, along with the barrage of misguided opinions we are often inundated with from all sides. As Joel and Tushar peel the layers and misinformation of "Beta, you should do this and that", you will hear them say "Uncle, Please sit". Tune in to the new episodes every Monday.
