[@pokerlife7564]

Rohan just feels like such a fun guy to hangout with. Subtle yet very funny.

[@gunnervin]

And he has a lot of intelligent inputs

[@mzain823]

I just want access to Rohan Joshi’s reading & watching history. Period. He is just so fucking updated!

[@rcrimi08]

Please share, same wish 😂

[@dribbledoo01]

Chalchitra talks podcast with Rohan Joshi is all that you need then!!

[@user-rb3gy9gn5c]

I can listen to Tanmay, Rohan and Sid for hours and hours.

[@shotray]

Rohan and Tanmay are the best thing that happened to the internet. Rohan is sharp and witty ( a benchmark in comedy) Tanmay is always the best.

[@neutron417]

yes

[@sujalgyawali9920]

Every single time I was watching this podcast I regreted using social media vs every 5 mins i checked my instagram.

[@rushabhdoshi6979]

Tanmay has nailed the long-form content thing

[@suryatejayamana7804]

I see Rohan Joshi, I click.

[@harshittiwary6214]

Ooo same

[@venky1777]

RohanJoshiii

[@abhishekd9949]

So true dude. I do the exact same thing. Guy has an opinion just about anything being talked about.

[@Omkar-is9cu]

​@@abhishekd9949 it's fuckin annoying

[@menobody9861]

instagram id pls we need to talk

[@SR-yq4kr]

Really need Rohan to share that list of books to get out of a book reading slump

[@siddharth2754]

this is the podcast we were waiting for Sid Warrier FTW

[@nayanbangar9915]

i just needed this pod to last forever so that i can be off social media for the meanwhile and keep intellectualizing my social media addiction :)

[@vineetyadav5900]

Rohan's point about Being bored is absolutely correct. It's become so difficult and vilified to be bored

[@TrickyLife945]

One of the worst habits social media has given me is that I constantly keep repeating the things I saw in my head and keep commenting on them, like I am constantly talking to myself in my head where my emotions change every fuckin second. Like its so bad that when I wake up after an 7-8 hour sleep, i dont even feel like I slept

[@meeee2004]

I'm so happy to see aishwarya after so long.. pls tell her I love her and that people are waiting for her to put out content.. I love love love the way she narrates her stories❤️❤️

[@nidhimathur2563]

Let the neuroscientist talk! 😂 This podcast could've just been a chitchat between fellow social media creator friends..

[@kshitij_.23]

When you realise every cut is of 5 to 6 seconds to keep us engaged, Tanmay 220 IQ💯

[@harshitathakur3029]

Ohh wow ! What an observation 🙌

[@KushanDwarsingh]

16:58 Tanmay- I caught my self watching this tutorial... Aishwarya- Yea Me- 🤣Isko kaise pata chala

[@gloomcreation1868]

now i'm listnening this podcast watching my phone and writing assignment all at the same time.....😂😂

[@sameekshasingh7013]

They brought Sid, and didn't let him shine/talk. I watched him on Ranveer Show; he has so much to impart in scientific terms

[@sagarkamrani5245]

Always worth waiting and always informative. Thankyou Tanmay bhai

[@faizanali-wj1th]

Really enjoyed watching the episode. Thanks so much Tanmay!

[@ignite5355]

Would like to say that i m in the room alone and even i m saying out loud my thoughts about social media like i m sitting with all these people ,like am i crazy ,prolly not

[@apitickler]

Speaking of attentionspan and such topics I put myself to watch this pod in one go

[@alishashaikh3555]

Me too but i usually am a hoe for long form content so yeah! That definitely doesn't discount my short form media addiction 😞 it's just I can do this as well hehe!

[@trezr2d2]

I don't read books BUT this year i discovered audiobooks and have finished many many books or half finished while at the gym or commuting.

[@gopalmalu5695]

What a insightful conversation man...... suddenly I look at social media in so much different perspective

[@ignite5355]

Love these tanmay bhaiya ,keep them coming

[@srishti9288]

This is SO relatable, I feel attacked

[@MultiSaesha]

How to lower tolerance? - Go in for something like Vipassana or actually Vipassana where the phone isn't with you, withdrawal happens and you come back with being happy with less screen time too.

[@rasyarawal06]

How long does that phase actually last though?

[@rutvimuley2174]

The intro itself had me in tears. Hilarious group of people yaar I also wanna hang out w them now.

[@itsmeshailza]

This is like listening to a group therapy session! 😂

[@nishanksamant9847]

Had me at Micahel making fun of Pam 🤣 Lol been there. Need more like this. Keep going guys!

[@aryatelang8089]

Aish is an entire mood ❤😂

[@aaravjagga4613]

I just love Rohan bro his tone made me laugh every time

[@Dramatis_personae09]

Hello Tanmay I'm writing this to let you know how much we appreciate you. I have been listening to you constantly for days now on all kinds of channels, wherever i can find you talking. Listening to you talk about your journey is very inspiring and helps me get through my day. Keep being you. Thank you so much!

[@AdityaGudla]

Agree with Aishwarya’s comment. 34:00. If general audience start creating, they’ll realise the pain and effort it takes to create a hit reel. Even if their reel fails, they don’t think it’s luck of the bigger creator, but the quality of their content that got it’s virality.

[@shortundead_]

I think majority of us are on instagram coz we just want some part of us alive out on the internet .. we fear ppl forgetting us so it more like the fear of getting forgotten that keeps us from deleting it and then the algorithms works to keep us hooked to these reels which we cannot escape now .

[@Nechu781]

Omg hws tht cat so calm & chill the whole time😭😭❤️❤️

[@arghamaz]

Sid is the best guy among all of them...

[@rohanchoudhary2538]

13:41 How cute ,Rohan called himself young 😂😂😂😂

[@Kathakathan11]

Delulu

[@madhurabhatkar2733]

love how rohan always talks with his hands

[@StranGTGamer]

This is what I badly needed!

[@damayantitiwari6663]

I relate to Aishwarya’s E to I change so much. Going from being heart of the party to I am fine alone is just ridiculous to me.

[@shreejaa2795]

The line between audience and creators has bluered whifh reminds me of the time when print was introduced and printing and publishing was the trend and everyone used to publish and also was the audience or the buyer of books and etc ... and somehow this calms a side of me which panicked on hearing that its destructive.. which it is .. but its a inevitable cycle i realised which today you have to follow to have a social life and all .. and as they also speak in the pod that its real success when you dont HAVE to be on this social media posting and etc where you are above this shit .... so yah just reminding myself its an inevitable cycle to calm myself ...

[@bhavikajangid8579]

Fact that I've downloaded this to watch during my flight

[@studyisglory1904]

every podcast, the intro music just hits the right spot

[@tanzO4]

Fasting from social will be a thing!!! The way our ancestors brought various fasting rituals for diffrent pleasure from food to sex , we should also bring fasting from social media so you're not premeantly away from it but you can control it so you don't get addicted !!!!!

[@mekaviraj6763]

Impressive

[@nottsumit]

we need you to be consistent on this channel

[@jaiahuja1302]

A podcast isn’t enough, we need an Honest Social Media episode

[@NikitaRJ]

If only Niharika would stop screeching. Else the podcast was so insightful.

[@user-ol2pu8bk9v]

Where is the neuroscience? This was just a podcast.

[@KushanDwarsingh]

16:58 Tanmay- I caught my self watching this tutorial... Me- Waaaaaaaahhhhhh... "you"... caught "yourself".... watching this tutorial.... Kaise karte ho ye mushkil kaarya... Hey prabhu... Hey Raamkrishnaw Jagannaath, Ye kyaa huaa?

[@patelmegh09]

That's why I first had low self esteem and then I entered social media

[@sarcasmi960]

Aishwarya looks so gorgeous ❤

[@dhanashrikhot8128]

Even I can't sleep without something playing in the background....mostly its friends

[@KushanDwarsingh]

37:51 Mr. Joshi cracked the code.

[@jackyshaw8067]

true wealth now means anonymity, gone are the days of status game. - Rohan. This resonated

[@QuestionEverything555]

That Cat though! So present and zen

[@Manoj17Patankar]

would've been nice to hear on the topic from Sid himself tbh

[@kincobraa]

Please do a neuroscience on friendship

[@kunjsomaiya4723]

+1

[@itsmeshailza]

Need those book recommendations!!

[@arghamaz]

Rohan joshi is a crazy guy...always super hyper active funny guy 😅😂🎉 but ya he always makes sense when he talks 🎉

[@Tkunfu]

Naming the pod like Huberman's and being a JRE's Protect our park.

[@ShubhamSingh-xt1jo]

Going to sleep. Will watch it tomorrow.

[@omaewamoushindeiru5292]

i am constantly just looking at rohans's cat and hearing podcast in the bg

[@scorpion96001]

Varun Thakur as a co-host with Tanmay and Rohan would make this podcast channel unmatchable...! Tanmay will bring the flow to the content... Rohan is witty... while Varun's story telling skill is the best!

[@themubinsmomin]

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas!

[@rukhsarchaudhary6680]

This is a neuro science podcast LET THE NEUROSCIENCE SPEAK

[@madhavkhandelwal8990]

yeah the neuroscience was banger

[@HonestFeedback-gy8hu]

Tanmay Bhatt is the Jack of All person. What a 💎 of a guy.

[@menobody9861]

Good marketing for “Kho Gaye hum kahan”, tanmay

[@thatvlogger561]

When they said this picture in picture thing is great, I was watching the podcast in pip while scrolling Insta 🤦‍♀️

[@ElegantMoment]

Rohan & Tanmay ❤ That’s what I want in my life.

[@anushkawakade4499]

After having read materials as a neuroscience and philosophy student myself, i do not believe the purpose of life is to be happy.

[@sriragvemuganti1040]

the bigger question is, how to be happy without depending on anything

[@InsightonSuccess]

You have to be okay with being sad you can't be happy all the time, learn to stay neutral

[@vibhakulkarni8791]

Get some sort of a deep passion or an ambition and focus on the process of achieving it, that kind of gives you the dopamine without depending on anyone/anything.

[@narahitesh1341]

You have to be nothing if you don't want to depend on anything.

[@missawk6816]

The researchers are saying you can't be happy without people or a good relationship with people around you, and I am panicking here.😂😂

[@siddheshdhuru8072]

IT'S BEEN A YEAR SINCE THE LAST EPISODE!!!!

[@wasimshayna]

😂😂loved this❤❤

[@user-ph6ss4zd3p]

i felt that when niharika said you're underrated you are "WOW" i felt that so hard

[@tworitdash]

[@TechnO_mi]

25:00 Naval once said, " The goal is to be rich and anonymous not poor and famous"
