I love how Varun, Kautuk and Aadar have the same expressions and same thoughts at the exact same time when Bawa explains something.. 😂😁

I sometimes feel like I’m Neville, a person who’s done with each and everything, and then other days I’m Varun, excited for whatever’s about to come

Hey, I just started going for therapy and sessions have gotten so intense. I stopped eating things that I loved to, I stopped watching series, I stopped doing any productive work. My brain has completely shut and things I used to do for myself - like watching Netflix , reading , cooking or even munching on snacks. All these have stopped and I'm sitting with my phone and staring into it thinking what do I do. I have replied to every friend ka message, i have finished talking to all my close friends. It's like I have hit this slow mo button. With no one to talk to, nothing to do. I see your video notification and for once, I felt myself again. Some dose for my mental peace. Thank you so much. Always looking forward to your podcasts. (Thanks to bawa, I reached out to a therapist because of him )

After shave Neville and Adar are looking 20 years younger😂

Neville is the bhide of the show. "Hamare jamane me" :D

Me and my mom watch the podcast every Tuesday and she's the one who relates with alll of bawa's ancient stories, she's 51😂

You didn't mention "Jaane bhai do Yaaron" in Indian films dealing with journalism! It was iconic and super funny and still remains one of the best comedy movies from India.

Everyone making fun of a fact and laughing Neville: *Now lemme ruin it by correcting them*

Loved the shoutouts to All the President’s Men, The Post, Frost/Nixon, Good night and good luck, Zodiac, the Loudest Voice, the Newsroom, Spotlight, the Network, Wag the Dog, Pipli Live, No one killed Jessica. I actually didn’t know about Live From Baghdad, thanks for that! Also, I don’t know why all of you forgot about The Insider starring Russel Crowe and Al Pacino, because I’m fairly sure that at least one of you would’ve watched it. Also, if you haven’t, please do, it’s amazing.

Aaron Sorkin has the most amazing writing sense when it comes to Journalism. When Will Mcavoy says "People no longer choose the news they want, they choose the facts they want" This is the fundamental paradox in the current situation of news. Opinions are no longer based on facts rather its becoming the other way around. Aaron Sorkin on the Newsroom showed the true struggles of a newsroom. As far as India is concerned, I honestly believe Shekhar Gupta is the most unbiased journalist out there. Also we''re to blame as we as consumers also are looking for entertainment even in news. God the fourth estate is falling and falling fast. May the fourth estate raise the level of debate . I would love to know who are the conservative reporters who you respect. That was one thing I think you could have touched upon in this podcast but as usual great work guys. May the fourth estate live long and be the dark knight of a democracy for many years to come.

Hey TISS Thankyou, for making me so happy. I actually healed after so many things after I started watching you all. I love you all. Thankyouu.

Watching you guys since the days of, "I was in America"😂😂♥️, do an episode on Traffic stories and facts

HELLO AND WELCOME TO THE TISS COMMENT SECTION. A PLACE WHERE WE COMMENT RANDOM INTERSTING FUNNY SHOCKING ABSURD FACTS STATS TRIVIAS ALONG WITH OUR PERSONAL HUMOUR AND WE JOKE ABOUT IT.

Varun Thakur : Suddenly : Page 3

"Alcoholic Dad Dissapointed in Pothead Son" -This Might be the Greatest Headline Ever

The opening scene wasn't a mockery, that's just how tiss is.

Neville hasn’t seen ‘Dark’? For him, it would be a relatable comedy 😂

3:22 everyone left to watch Amish Devgan on youtube😂

Watching this series from episode 1. In this lockdown, it has been a refreshing thing. Thank you .

This podcast was soo educational and informative.. Would like a podcast on "Interviews"..

When the podcast is over, it's such a cultural shock for a late 90's kids You guys are such culturally so well informed and the information and opinions is so diverse And the pop culture information in the podcast Loved it !!

Varun finally got chance to watch shaitan hawali it's awesome, fantastic, fantabulous,very comical.. Especially your part of improving many times..... What a beautiful script... Expecting some more comings keep it up man it was awesome

Every time Bava opens his mouth, I see a *Joke* building up in Kautuk's gut.🤣🤣🤣

Unfortunately no one is talking about my favourite moment in the episode - Aadar doing the Egyptian dance while saying Bamulaiza hoshiyar :( 4:43

Why does Bawa look like he's 14 and 40 at the same time

When Aadar said "I was watching Sacha Baron Cohen..." I was wondering why is he referring to himself in the 3rd person?

Varun's Snapchat story reminds me of Rohan Joshi's IG bio: "Sometimes you're the Saheb, sometimes you're the zau dya"

Watching this now and got goosebumps when Kautuk mentioned Danish Siddiqui at 00:50:20 .

I wish I had half the commitment while studying as Varun has whilst singing "Haye Jawani Mori Sukhi Sukhi Jaaye Re'

My life is in such a bad place right now but these podcasts serve as a little escape from it so thank you @Varun Thakur and the entire TISS team thanks a lot guys

Kautuk is the youngest but looks the oldest in this episode 😅😂

THE SUDDENNESS!! THE SHEER SUDDENNESS OF THE NOTIFICATION SQUAD!!

Them: Starting a video about journalism by doing an Arnab impression. Me, who's watched Dark for the past three days: The beginning is the end, this is a paradox.

Someone should watch all the tiss episodes from the beginning and write down every movie or series that they told us to watch or said it's good categories it and post it will be very valuable.

On Air with AIB was really well made and hope it returns soon.

From Wednesday to Monday, we experience withdrawal symptoms and then the boys are backkkk!❣️

Bhai itna information diya hai iss Podcast me, mereko copy pen leke baithna pad raha hai to write down the movies/shows i have to watch now, the News Channel/Journalists i have to follow.. You guys are amazing! So intelligent and so funny and so imformed! ❤

Neville low-key needs to drop his skincare routine

I usually Skip ads while watching KZfaq videos, but never on your stuff. Love you guys.

I am so used to hearing you guys...and somehow its so comforting that I can fall asleep without feeling lonely just by playing the podcast in the background *Accidently deleted it after Varun liked it*😭

Byline Chicago June 11, 2020 - 56 year old "uncle" reporting. I guess I am the only one of your viewers who gets all of Neville's references like Dr Narottam Puri (who was an actual ENT doctor in real life and a sports broadcaster) and can actually stump him with even older ones like Salma Sultan, the most morose looking news reader of all time on DD. Btw, Varun the name of Woodward and Bernstein's source Mark Feldt was Deep Throat named after the most famous porn movie of that era. And in the original Karz it is Raj Kiran reborn as Rishi Kapoor. One good Hindi movie on journalism was the 1986 movie "New Delhi Times" starring Shashi Kapoor and Om Puri. Great to see your generation still excited by good objective journalism in this post-truth era. Another excellent show boys. Keep reporting...

Varun u killed it with Neville's impression at the end about Newsroom 😃😃!!

The reaction of bawa when varun forgets what was "the famous phase" of Indra Gandhi and then he says "Emergency" and when he forgets dictator 😂😂. He fails to ask "Are you High" ?

Guys... Just started the episode... Just a bit of personal trivia because of the subject; one of the first English language newspapers of South India, if not the first was a paper called the Malabar Herald, out of Cochin, Kerala in 1905... Was our family business... Started by my Great Grandfather... Just thought I'll throw that in there.

Living my lockdown life one tiss at a time!

So my assignment deadlines, online classes, everything has resumed. So this week seemed so much longer in comparison because the crave for a new episode was that bad. And now Tuesday's FINALLY here! You guys are my favourite escape. Okay, thanks, bye.

Does anyone remember "YA!", it used to come every Sunday with DNA newspaper It was for the kids at that time. Used to have puzzles, comics, articles by other kids, DIY projects, etc.

10:00 Narottam Puri was my ENT doctor in delhi

Varun and Aadar breaking into 'kuaa ma doob jaungi' was so damn cute!

newsroom is probably my favourite show ever, its just pure greatness. i was introduced to Sorkin because of it and Daniels blows it out of the park in it. People do watch it!

Patriot Act by Hasan Minhaj, Daily Show by Trevor Noah and Last week tonight by John oliver, these types of shows we really need in India

Such great podcast, as always tbh. Loved the proper serious discussion and inputs especially of Bawa and Kautuk. With every episode, I keep on finding both of them more and more relatable. More power to TISS! ❤️

When Bawa said if Madras Cafe was a journalism movie, I am pretty sure he was trying to talk about Kabul Express but probably couldn't remember the name! Also, you guys said you would talk about Newsroom in detail towards the end, but never really did so much! One of the best series ever.

I'm a huge fan of Joe Sacco. Palestine, Footnotes in Gaza, Journalism and The Great War are just some of my all-time favorites and are highly recommended to anyone interested in this topic.

Can somebody explain to me what these "thrusday conversations" are? I'm so lost everytime they mention that.

Did everyone get a salon day together? Even Neville looks kinda cute. 🤔❤️

Dr. Narottam Puri used to conduct these sport quiz shows in DD Metro. Nostalgic :)

Finally Newsroom gets its due. Thank you for a smart conversation

I agree with Kautuk's point, the truth is always in the centre, it neither lies in the right nor in the left. And that's the problem of Indian news be it print or live media, one side support the government and the others oppose. Nobody is interested in providing the truth. Every news channel or newspaper is biased. Nobody dares to put out the truth.

Kautuk’s imitation of arnab was the best😂 100% apt

A few great Hindi films dealing with the media that you missed but surely know of: Jaane Bhi Do Yaaron, Main Azaad Hoon, and New Delhi Times. The last one is an underrated classic starring Shashi Kapoor and Sharmila Tagore (Kapoor won the Best Actor National Award for it).

Shoutout to Varun for the Patriot Act episode bit. Was actually a remarkable episode

I am very upset at the absolute degradation of Indian journalism over the years. In the 90s and some extent even early 2000s, news media was enforcing checks and balances to the government and society as such. They were as important as the judiciary or the legislative branch of governance. Today, Indian media has unfortunately turned into a mouthpiece for political gain, no accountability whatsoever, and wear their nationalism on their sleeve. Instead of well informed debates, all we see are shouting matches all day. I used to admire journalists in my youth, some of them were my idealistic heroes. Today, their word is worth lesser than the electricity used to run my TV. Arnab Goswami, the one guy who single handedly created this devolution - May you rot in hell.

The nation wants to know WHAT DAY IT IS? It's F***ing TUESDAY!!!!!

Bawa talking about DD newsreaders with such enthusiasm is something else. How exciting it is to be of that era. Others unable to relate to him is hilarious 🤣 😆 😂

Yay!!!It's my birthday today and nothing makes me more happier than TISS episode 😍😍😙😙lot's of love to you guys 🤗🤗🤗

26:26 Excuse me sir,this dialogue was from the movid *Radio* by Himesh. I remember cus i saw that movie for 30 bucks,i was alone with a couple in the whole theatre. Edit: *I can't believe Varun remembers Radio* 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

Im surprised no one mentioned Nightcrawler, Amazing movie with a career best Jake Gyllenhall performance

You know before I discovered this podcast I used to think I was relatively pop culture literate but, boy was I wrong. Now every podcast I have notepad open in my computer and just write down movies and TV shows recommended by these guys.

Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip and Sports Night The two forgotten and underrated shows.

Varun just owned Socrates’s whole life with a single line. Lmao😂😂😂

What is Tigmanshu Dhulia doing in this Podcast?

Krantiveer had amazing dialogue about Kalam wali Bai "Tumhare akbaar pe subah bacche hagte hai"

Stopped this podcast to go watch the movie Zodiac . It’s a brilliant piece of art . Thank you for the recommendation . Will have to come back to finish this podcast later 😅

Fun Fact: I was on the Radio when I was 9 years old. It was an interview and I got a cheque for it.

Call Anu Malik and discuss plagiarism in Bollywood.

From the consumers' POV the challenge is to select specific news to focus on. We are being bombarded with so much information that selection of specific news in itself a challenge.

Is the sound getting lower and lower or is it just me

Wait, am I seriously the first one who’s watching this..

I've loved & always looked forward to TISS but this episode was quite chaotic, especially in the parts where Adar & Kautuk were arguing with Neville. Maybe the topic itself is such the people tend to get intense & the argumentative, or maybe its just me. Will be looking forward to the next episode.

“Hence, this hall which otherwise was normally used as a Training Audio Video Hall was converted into a ward ever since the hospital was also designated as COVID-19 treatment hospital,”

Neville's every sentence starts with either "So, basically..." or " It's actually". Change my mind!

Varun B and D toh thik hai what about the M by General Bakshi!? 😂

I definitely fall in love with Neville a little bit more with each Podcast.

RGV's रण movie is one of the most underrated. Very much relevant to the times today. If not watched please watch it.

Varun you guys forgot u mention about what happenend to journalists in the 'EMERGENCY', the word you were not able to remember. So just talking about one side of everything makes u no different from the other side or the word u people like to say' bhakts'. And btw i dont remember any pm going to the border or even near to that so before comparing it to the 'fakewar' just think twice about it. Manmohan singh use to give even a normal speech behind a bulletproof glass shield. Here we are talking about our army and if him going is boosting their moral than whats the harm and you people might not see it but the world has seen it and indians have seen it. Why always see bad in him. Apprecite whats really good ane appreciate when he is doing the stuff which no one from 'ur fav' people dared to do. Btw i am a huge fan of ur show😊so just this

Invite Parthiv Patel & Sahil Bulla and discuss why do they look like Kautuk?

It's amazing how Kautuk says absurd jokes with such a straight face. I just can't see it coming.

I also used to read newspaper in reverse. First page, last page and then start in reverse ❤️❤️

Hey varun in this video just wanna tell you within 1,2 days you gonna have superb dinner at nikita's House 💯

I burst into laughter the minute varun called Ravish "'únbiased''

Guys ... u forgot to mention NightCrawler. Jake Gyllenhaal was deadly creepy night stinger journalist. @ 53:38 ( Tv station in Brazil / NFlix Documentary )

Bawa is so knowledgeable aspiring to be as smart as him❤️

They somewhat behaved like the news channel debaters

Aaand now I'm insecure... Never in my life have I ever watched or read news😒

I think no one have seen The Lallantop by Saurabh Drivedi . I think it's because it comes in Hindi. But it also a good News channel.

Whenever Neville starts speaking, varun starts checking his phone out

Yes Neville, I remember Usha Albuquerque! And I used to mess up her last name every time. And also Rini Simon (Khanna), Salma Sultan, Geetanjali Iyer, Komal Singh, Neethi Ravindran, Sadhana Srivastava and Sunit Tandon! 😊
