Show Description:
An often belittling term, "ABCD (American Born Confused Desi)" is being redefined in new livestream/podcast series American Born Chatty Desis hosted by internet personalities Sandeep Parikh (The Guild, The Legend of Neil) and Omar Najam (Dimension 20). The two hosts (and a sometimes exciting guest) engage in front of a live chat, with a fast and loose format where they check in with their chakras and debate over their American roots v. Desi heritage! Come for the light hearted commentary, stay for the deep insights into life from the second generation point of view. We're here, we barely speak Hindi, get used to it.
