Episode Poonam Pandey, World Cup, Trump & The Life of a Touring Comic | Shamik Chakrabarti on Cyrus Says
Comedian Shamik Chakrabarti is back on Cyrus Says, which means any hope of structure disappears immediately.
In this episode, Cyrus and Shamik jump from Shah Rukh Khan to Alexander the Great, from Donald Trump and UFC crowds to hair transplants, circumcision, Ben Stokes, football, cricket, World Cups, Kunal Kamra, road renaming, Elon Musk, Poonam Pandey and somehow even Cape Verde.
They discuss why Trump may be impossible to parody, why older audiences laugh harder at death jokes, why comedians keep touring despite terrible travel schedules, and whether India is a country... or a culture.
There's also a passionate debate about ZEE's World Cup tagline, the economics of stand-up comedy, and Cyrus once again proving that he goes to sleep before most people have dinner.
No agenda. No conclusions. Just two comics following every tangent available.
