Chapter 2: Indian Matchmaking

Unscripted Musings

Hey coconuts,

I hope you are ready for our second instalment of Meral and Saman talking. In this episode we go over the Netflix show Indian Matchmaking, we share some of our own opinions along with some of our personal experiences with this sort of thing. Personally we believe that the matchmaking process has become a rite of passage for South Asian women. This is a relatively heavier episode and might be triggering for some ladies, but just know that you are not alone.

P.S: A ghost like echo might still be heard in the background, please ignore it. we hadn't acquired the right podcast gear but we are slowly getting there.
