In this episode, Cyrus and Shamik jump from Shah Rukh Khan to Alexander the Great, from Donald Trump and UFC crowds to hair transplants, circumcision, Ben Stokes, football, cricket, World Cups, Kunal Kamra, road renaming, Elon Musk, Poonam Pandey and somehow even Cape Verde. They discuss why Trump may be impossible to parody, why older audiences laugh harder at death jokes, why comedians keep touring despite terrible travel schedules, and whether India is a country... or a culture. There's also a passionate debate about ZEE's World Cup tagline, the economics of stand-up comedy, and Cyrus once again proving that he goes to sleep before most people have dinner. No agenda. No conclusions. Just two comics following every tangent available.
