#001 — Who we are, how we met, and why Off the Rickshaw?

Meet the crew behind Off the Rickshaw — three South Asian Millennials navigating the chaos of identity, culture, and everything in between. In this intro episode, we share why we started the pod, what topics we’re diving into, and what it means to slow down, speak up, and sound off in a world that doesn’t always get us - this is who we are, how we met, and why we decided to finally hit "record.".

We talk about what this podcast is really about: honest convos, shared laughs, and navigating life as South Asian men in today's world. From career changes to cultural contradictions, dating to deep thoughts — we're unpacking it all.

Expect weekly episodes filled with stories, debates, and reflections on the life stage we’re in now — late 20s to early 30s — where everything feels both figured out and completely up in the air.
From biryani to burnout, nothing is off limits.
