My guest in this episode invokes joy with everything he says and does! Join me in my chat with Anuvab Pal as we talk about his unique way of igniting joy even if it means getting hauled to court over an argument about things inane, mundane and patently laughable! Anuvab Pal has been described by The New York Times as India's Most Intelligent Comedian. The Guardian  calls him 'very brilliant, very funny'.

His stand up comedy special “The Nation Wants To Know,” has had over 1000 shows starting in Mumbai and has been playing from Sydney to San Francisco to Singapore to sold out houses across 30 cities. Anuvab is the only Indian comedian invited to perform at Harvard University and for the Prime Ministers of India and Great Britain. In the UK, his BBC stand up show titled “The Empire” has been seen by 6 million people worldwide as part of the BBC World Service New Year's Eve Comedy Special and is featured at The V&A Museum in London, and on Amazon Prime UK.

He has also written a sitcom starring British comedy legend Stephen Fry for BBC Radio 2. He is a playwright and also writes for films and series.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
