Arnab Chaudhary’s podcast picks
Chaudhary, climate and indigenous activist, is the operation director for Harin Nepal, a youth-led organisation promoting intersectional environmentalism in Nepal.Sunne Herne Katha
I love listening to stories about our society and people's lives. ‘Sunne Herne Katha’ is a podcast that shines in this element. Listening to it makes me feel like I'm right there, chatting with the locals and experiencing nature alongside the Herne Katha team.
Boju Bajai
‘Boju Bajai’ is my top favourite Nepali podcast, with nearly 100 episodes. It features women discussing Nepali society, politics and contemporary issues from a feminist perspective. It has greatly helped me understand things better, especially during the pandemic and remains a regular thing to listen to for me.
Climate Briefing
‘Climate Briefing’ is a must-listen for those who want to understand UN climate negotiations and international climate politics. As I am involved in climate justice activism, this podcast has been instrumental in keeping me informed about the climate change action plan globally.
Sanchai: The Podcast
Although ‘Sanchai’ might seem like casual conversations between two friends, this podcast reflects the current realities of the Nepali diaspora. I suggest it for people travelling abroad and for those in Nepal who want to learn about the lives of Nepalis living overseas.
Cut To-A podcast on world cinema
While looking for a podcast about world cinema, I came across ‘Cut To—A podcast on world cinema.’ The hosts discuss movies in the show in a way that is similar to how I talk about films with my friends. If you love commentaries about films, this podcast is for you.
