Are You Bored Yet?
An Akshansh & Amey Joint
Akshansh and Amey are old friends who get bored a lot. And in an attempt to stave off this boredom, they consume a lot of content. Be it movies, TV shows, music, video games or sports. After years of planning and laziness, they've finally decided to put their heads together and birth this podcast out of their brains! Tune in for some chill vibes, conversations with friends, and general hot (and sometimes cold) takes on pop culture of all kinds.
What Matt Berry Does In The Shadows
Akshansh and Amey talk about two of their horror-comedy favorites, BBC cult-hit Garth Marenghi's Darkplace, and FX hit What We Do In The Shadows! both featuring actor/comedian/musician Matt Berry.
