Lad Culture, Mad Culture
As most of you probably know, Italy defeated England in the Euros this week— and with that lost came a tirade of outcry by the football hooligans, which perfectly showed the toxicity of Lad Culture. This week, we broke down the history of Lad Culture and the way it links to toxic masculinity. Make sure to tune in to listen to a refined analysis of the problematic tropes of Lad Culture and the way it impacts society.

Love’s Jigsaw
Well listeners, Aash finally watched Daniel Sloss' standup special, Jigsaw! We broke down Daniel's theory on love and relationships and shared the important lessons we learned from him as we chatted about our experiences. We also discussed our love for dark humour and how it helps us deal with life. Later, we chatted about Victoria's Secret rebranding and if they can counteract the damage they have caused over the years they promoted unrealistic body standards to women.

I'd Rather Lose Them Than Me
"I'd rather lose them than me." We keep coming back to this phrase, so we decided to dissect what it means to lose yourself in a relationship with a person. We shared personal anecdotes when we gave too much of ourselves to people that simply did not deserve it and then discussed the lessons we learned and how we plan to avoid losing ourselves in relationships in the future, somehow digressing into growing up female and the ridiculous policing we’ve faced. We also had a few crazy moments as we shared some wild theories about how people get lured into traps when in relationships and have our tips on how to prevent it.. hopefully they work?! Make sure to listen to this one!

Moving On To Bigger Things
So, we have split up... well, it's not that dramatic, but tune in to find out our big news. We had a lot of emotions running when recording this and have decided that this will be the last weepy episode for a while as we try and lift our spirits amongst the lockdown blues. Also, we discussed the things that people absolutely must do during their twenties and the lessons that heartbreak has taught us. So join our journey as we get back to our usual beaming selves.  Share your thoughts with us on: Instagram: @mistakesinthemakingpodcast Twitter: @MITMPodcastt --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mistakes-in-the-making/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mistakes-in-the-making/support

Movies & Mind Fuckery
Last episode we thought this was not our week, but maybe it is not just our year. In this episode, we discuss the insane cyclon that hit Mumbai, celebrities and their PR social media campaigns, and we question the transparency of donations. In the second half of the episode, our minds stop working and we go on autopilot— basically, we do what we do best and break down movies and TV shows that have kept us (partially) sane this lockdown. Of course, we end up talking about toxic tropes, but we refreshingly also discuss what we like about these movies and shows. Tune in to listen to another rant with moments of humor.

Covid Negative, Mentally Negative
We feel like you can actively hear how sad the lockdown has made us in this episode. Honestly, if the new wave of Covid has got you feeling down, then you have two friends that are definitely going through a similar experience. We discuss how we very shittily cope with our feelings, the lack of international media coverage of the situation in India, and somehow land up discussing the intricacies of the Avengers saga. This episode is full of dry humor and sass with a side of sadness, so make sure to check it out, I mean if you're in India you legit have nothing better to do.  Share your thoughts with us on: Instagram: @mistakesinthemakingpodcast Twitter: @MITMPodcastt --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mistakes-in-the-making/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mistakes-in-the-making/support

The Grand Dissection of Astrology
Astrology and the study of the stars has been an integral part of our culture for generations— it has been a guiding force for people at times in their life when they have felt the most lost. On the other hand, your daily horoscope provided by some app or magazine is absolute rubbish. So, listen along as we dissect the various reasons why people get lured into horoscope horseshit and the truly mind-blowing reason why the time at which you were born does not impact your personality traits.  Share your thoughts with us on: Instagram: @mistakesinthemakingpodcast Twitter: @MITMPodcastt --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mistakes-in-the-making/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mistakes-in-the-making/support
