How Many Gods Does It Take To… ~ Desi-American Life, D&D and God - (A·B·C·D) Podcast Episode 11

American Born Chatty Desis (A·B·C·D)

Join us, your spirited ABCD co-hosts, as we embark on a hilariously enlightening journey of self-discovery and navigating the cultural labyrinth of being Indian-American. From exploring the art of walking the tightrope between two diverse cultures to unmasking the intricacies of identity, we offer a uniquely unfiltered perspective. All while throwing in some good old-fashioned humor, because what's life without a bit of laughter, right?
Ever contemplated the power dynamics between polytheism and monotheism? How about the peculiar intersections of Dungeons and Dragons and dice making with monotheism? Well, buckle up, because we're taking you on a roller coaster ride of theological debates and revelations. We pit our wits against each other, advocating for our respective beliefs - Omar for the enthralling spectrum of gods and goddesses, and Balloonisto for the formidable strength of a solitary deity. And just when you think we've reached the pinnacle, we surprise you with a riveting discourse on the paradoxical relationship between faith and fantasy role-playing games.
Lastly, we dive into our treasure trove of personal anecdotes, revealing how we've embraced our own versions of culture while continuously wrestling with the weight of societal expectations. We open up about the liberation that comes with self-acceptance and the power of expressing our unique identities. We discuss how we've used improv as our secret weapon to challenge stereotypes and craft relatable comedy. Tune in for a journey where we don't just navigate our cultural identities, we celebrate them. As always, thank you for listening and being part of this ride - we can't wait to share this adventure with you!
