We begin season 2 with Afghanistan. We are joined by Paiman (@paiman007) as we go through one of the most talked about countries of the last few months. We learn about the rich history which is often ignored due to the narrative about Afghanistan. We talk about the geo-politics and what Afghans feel about the regime change and the Taliban. And many other interesting things too.    I was really fortunate to have found a very articulate and well read guest who explained the nuances of a very complex topic. Thank you Bhaijan :D.   RECOMMENDED SUPPLEMENTARY  MATERIAL  1.
