Curries & Coconuts
Curries and Coconuts was born from the chaos that was 2020. Pavitra and Anouska were far too exposed to social media during that time. In this podcast, they break down thoughts about pop culture, brown culture, social media, and politics, partially for viewing pleasure and partially to maintain their sanity. New episodes out every Tuesday!

Cardi B recently received a lot of backlash for her Reebok campaign with her appearing as a Hindu goddess. The rapper apologized for the appropriation. Pavitra and Anouska talk about Cardi B's apology, common cultural appropriation of Indian religion, and how companies rarely own up to their offensive marketing ideas, very often letting pop culture icons take the fall.
