Indicast celebrates one year!!! Indicast style salaam to all our listeners who have stayed with us throughout! Keep those comments coming in. We love em’ all. Also, we have created a record of sorts in this podcast. It is one of those pacy episodes with a file size that won’t annoy you!

It is that time of the year when India gets a face lift… literally. The festival of lights and fire crackers lightens up the country. And with it comes sweets and the ‘faral’! “Diwali shopping” is a trend which all Indians look forward to and live up to it in style by saving some bucks for the D day. I went shopping too and learnt that shopping is a social science! Listen to know more!

While an Asian has been awarded with the Nobel Peace prize, we discuss the reasons why Gandhi missed the bus.

Don disappoints! But, sure is a treat for all SRK fans. Go watch it… at your own risk! This podcast is dedicated to the Indian film industry! Tell us what you think!

India Inc. is on a high internationally. We are on an expansion mode and we decided to cover the exploits of a few companies which have made us proud!

Episode Notes:

• Tata steel and Mittal steel rock!
• Grameen spawns an $800 Microfinance industry to wipe off poverty! Ambitious, but, getting there! ?
• Grameen bank founder, entrepreneur, social worker Mohd Yunus gets a nobel for Peace!
• Why is there no Nobel in Mathematics? Interesting stuff!!!

Yours Internetally,
Abhishek

Our first podcast with both of us sitting face to face…so it definitely was weird to begin with but we eased up as time passed . We start with a few HR issues that start ups like ours face.

Belated Gandhijayanti and a very Happy Dry Day!! Whats up with national holiday’s being Dry Days?

We consistently digress from one topic to the next and have maintained the tradition in this podcast as well…

…An arranged marriage is a marriage where the marital partners are chosen by others based on considerations other than the pre-existing mutual attraction of the partners. We can visualise an american teenager after reading the definition exclaim, “Phew! That stuff still happens?” But, here in India, this concept is not only age old, but, apparently more successful than love marriages! We have some interesting stories to share.

Orkut, the social networking site allows everyone to have split personalities! The earthling, Jack is completely different from the Netizen, Jack. He “transforms” himself into some other man altogether and gains a few brownie points on the internet from girls!

Online Matrinomial sites, a haven and heaven for single males! But, we feel it is dangerousy weird to decide to spend a life with a stranger from (net)seltown! And “Arranged Dates” can be hilarious! Listen to know more.
