The Internet Said So | EP 73 | India Facts 

Good to see I'm being given the respect I deserve

1st Amendment of TISS constitution: Whenever decided whilst recording the podcast, that the color black shall be worn by Varun, Aadar, Neville, Kautuk shall not be informed therefore leading to costume mismatch and disturbing the Zoom frame.

I love the Adar Neville chemistry. It always involves one old man joke and one let me tell you swipe. :P

Honestly, don't take this the wrong way... But your podcasts have helped me sleep for the past 6 months when I was struggling with insomnia. I would just put one of the podcasts I have seen before and it was like the perfect white noise for me. So, thank you so much for unknowingly help me beat my insomnia ❤️

Varun: "India is the world's biggest importer of arms in the world." Aadar: "And twice as many legs" Kautuk: "Nice" Neville: *laughs hysterically* Hands down the best moment of the EP😂 first time Neville laughs at an Aadar fact🤣

Bawa is in the alumni list of Nalanda University.

Isn't it Bhim Rao Ambedkar? Neville: What a guy dude?

I believe it is time Baba gives up the facade and accept he's "The Man from Earth".

India dropped out of the running in hockey because they shifted from grass fields to artificial turf. Because no matter how smooth you make it a natural field is a bit uneven and slows the ball down, however when the shift to artificial turf happened the ball use to glide along more smoothly and faster and the indian players couldn't keep up with the pace. Coupled with the lack of facilities and the boom in cricket, hockey got pushed to the sidelines

I don't know why but when Neville starts laughing and can't stop it makes me so incredibly happy☺️ Like "bachhe churane wali pagal budhiya" and "7th standard wh**e" thing 😂

Bawa before the legs joke :😤🤧 Bawa after the legs joke :😂😂😂😂

51:20 Aadar finally cracked up Bawa In Micheal Scott's voice "I feel like a proud parent".

My favourite thing about India was articulated by someone I know: if aliens were to land on earth and they wanted to see the entirety of the human race, you would have to direct them to India. The only country in the world that has every face of humanity and nature, at its very best and worst and everything in between, living together under one republic.

I am going through stress and loneliness but watching you 4 just makes me feel so relaxed that i don't feel alone and i have 4 friends with me virtually who are doing panchayat with me. Thank you for doing this. Cheers to all 4 of you❤

Neville looks so cute while laughing

I don't know if this counts as a co-operate show but I saw Neville at my college fest right before lockdown and that's one of my best memories of college 😭❤️.

I have huge crush on Neville. He is gives off Daddy vibes xoxo.

It's Civet guys, not cat, not ferret, not meerkat. Yahi podcast pe 3 baar discuss kiya tha :p

Varun has a kid's laughter when he gets too excited.

Bawa is National Treasure!! He came well groomed to show 🙏

I usually listen to TISS on Spotify, came here just to see Neville laugh on Aadar’s legs joke 😄

5:03 bawa blushed because varun pointed at bawa Sach batao varun, aap bhi pyaar karne lage ho na bawa se?

Even on a podcast discussing Indian facts they ended up mentioning bhai😆

Can you do a podcast on women who contributed to humanity. As Kautuk said contributions of many get lost and only a few names are remembered, and that has particularly affected women over the course of history. Would probably be great learning for the four of you as well.

India's diversity is what makes it so appealing to me. Love from Pakistan.

Broke up with my gf of 17 months last week in addition to a surgery that I am recuperating from. Your old episodes are pulling me through it. Thanks lads !

Neville: They did something amazing for people with Iodine deficiency Varun: Kya? White colour?😂😂😂

Bawa's disappointment of lampard sacking has overflown from 442 podcast to TISS

Recent TISS fan and as a banarsi living in California, would totally recommend a visit to benaras. Specially boating in the ganga ji what bawa was referring to ...

It took only 11:00 mins to bring in BHAI FACTS. Hardcore fans of bhai jaan 😂😂

15% of 13000 is 1950. Proof that it doesn't take much to impress Bawa. 😂

51:23 ....Joey moment of Varun😂😂

In terms of hockey, one theory I heard in school was that the introduction of artificial turfs was detrimental to our game. Dribbling and skills which India was known for was taken away and it became a more technical game due to the surface. We hardly have any artificial surfaces in India which is why it became difficult for our players to compete.

So, I’ve figured out the Holy Trifecta of interacting with Neville: Blush worthy Compliments, A Woman who is low-key an Aaron Sorkin creation and Proficiency in ‘Fast’ Maths.

Neville tripping on the legs joke was the cutest thing ever 😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Rise of Cricket over Hockey or football in india can a good case study. Hockey was big in North India, Football in Calcutta, while Cricket was only popular in Mumbai and south cities till early 80s. It has a lot to do with Mumbai being the financial capital and cricket rising above other 2 post 1983 World Cup win. Economics drives these things.

Call Sheetal and discuss your First Crushes

51:10 When Aadar broke Neville.

kautuk what is this behaviour ?? Where's the clock ??.... 😅

Varun (as he tries out Russian Accent): “I will shoot.” Such Stereotype, Much Wow 😂

Why is Bawa pronouncing Thane (Thaane) as Thaine😂

51:18 Aadar broke Neville.. best moment

Amazing video guys!! This episode was so balanced with great conversation, interesting facts and so many comedy gems and of course the numerous bawa eccentricities. Thanks!! However, can I just say that it made my day to see that sunset glimmer on Aadar's face at the end of the video!! Aadar has always been a hearthrob, but boy this was a thirstrap move! :D

Karnataka is a beauty in itself. All kind, all states and including foreigners you find here. Karnataka in itself incredible. Fusion of modern and yet traditional people and culture you will find here. And yes, the Nature or Environment here like other states or country, is a different level of paradise experiencing at it's of own.

Isn't it crazy how we say 0 was invented by aryabhatta in 3/4/5 A.D but we counted ravan's 10 heads in 3000 B.C.

FINALLY ANOTHER PART 2. Happy Republic Day everyone!!

Varun at 19:50 is every girl in local who once in a life had a argument for open long hair 😂😂😂

56:07 - The Goosebumps moment! I can totally relate to Bawa on this one! India is Home, and there ain't no place better than home!! ❤️

Had a historical moment in this episode 🤣🤣

Best opening guys.... seriously..... amazing...after all this time you guys still haven't lost touch ...really amazing♥️

Its soo nice to see Neville to crack up like that! This is a historic moment 😂❤

I have been watching your podcasts since the first day I joined engineering in 2017 and you guys speak of the thousands of engineers applying for jobs, this engineer just got placed!

Bawa's giggling fit gave me a proper serotonin shot🤣🌸

The times I forget we are getting an episode,are the best lol

Varun mentioning his Bombay Local Train Story reminded me of the Calcutta Metro where the Men’s Section is bursting and the Women’s Section is empty and during Durga Puja, it’s crowded and an uphill struggle if you’re not skinny.

Added to watch later and i will enjoy it at work tomorrow

Aadars historic moment of breaking Neville 😂😂😂👌👌👌 amazing Aadar 🤣🤣 my Arms salute you 😂😂

Kautuk has switched places for the first time... Getting OCD 🤣🤣

Bawa waiting uptil n0w to get his haircut, says a lot about his relation with freedom 😂

The last view that Aadar showed had tricolour. Saffron (the sky), white (the mist in between), green (the ground.) Like Kautuk would say, "Mast!"

51:23 A Historic Moment where the AIR RJ laughed 😂

For those who are returning “Welcome Home”... got’em goosebumps - someone who is stuck outside and not been able to be home for over a year. ❤️❤️❤️

Had lectures from 7:30 AM today.. finally free and guess who will be having an amazing afternoon 😂 Thankyou Guys & Happy Republic Day!❤️🇮🇳

Tiss constitution written by - 'Bawa'saheb ambedkar 😂

Started ep1 with india facts now here full circle

Another correction, Grand Trunk Road is from Teknaf (in Bangladesh), Kolkata to Amritsar and then goes on to Lahore and Kabul. GT Road.

I love how everything they discuss, they also tell us how many marks the Civics question was for 😂

We were good on grass field for hockey. Our performance drop due to usage of Shoes, AstroTurf. We faced the same kind of issue for world football too...

Amazing Podcast... #TISSarmy ...completed all the podcasts on Spotify in 2 weeks...BTW a suggestion for the next podcast's topic----- 'Shopping'

I swear I've been struggling to sleep I usually play TISS and listen while sleeping. Old episode I know every jokes so I want new one Tonight I'll sleep well. Thanks

@ 32:00 Kautuk's point on india's self sufficiency is bang on.

Sad to hear this wasn’t a ‘India TV Facts’ Podcast 😂

T-shirt idea: University of Diversity. A really funny one after a long time.

53:03 Bawa tripping on Aadar's legs joke. Me tripping on Bawa tripping...

1:01:43 - 1:03:57 Aadar Looking absolutely gorgeous. #Sunkissed

Aadhaar has been telling unconfirmed facts and I keep on listening.. that much love : *

Lovely Podcasts I love them ❤️

Cowtuk's background is disturbing 😭

First time Kautuk background changed 😲

Legend says.. bawa is still laughing 😂

Any free time I get after online lessons gets spent watching TISS, and I high-key love this habit 😂🔥 Happy Republic Day 🇮🇳❤️

Adar 2.0 - shifting from facts to (notsolame) jokes . That legs joke is 🙌🏻

1980 is the last we won an Olympic gold in Moscow, many countries didn't participate in tht Olympic at the height of cold war, by then our decline had started and the dominance of European teams, some attribute this to the astroturf grounds

Yeah Varanasi is absolutely beautiful and amazing You should visit... Ganga Aarti 😍by far the best thing I have witnessed ever..

This podcast showcases university in diversity in reality. All 4 members of different religious faiths. #Coexist

When you guys said we have tigers and lions as native animals, I live in a place in Satpura range where once tigers and lions coexisted and finally tigers wiped out all the lions because lions were lazy after having a meal.

This podcast gave me nostalgic G.K class vibes... Made my day :)

We need more people like you guys❤️

Sirf yehi episode mein sabse jyada facts hai ,aur uspe genuine reaction bhi

I died laughing at 10:38😂😂 Varun’s imitation of Amitabh is really funny

Hockey moved to astroturf, and India didn't have the resources to invest in astroturf. There are a bunch of complicated factors but this one has a significant correlation. Since the International Hockey Federation (FIH) altered the rules to make synthetic astroturf the mandatory playing surface for international hockey tournaments - we were ruthlessly disadvantaged.

good to see Kautuk finally arrived on his honeymoon destination!

Varun saying Vishesh Tippani, Latkesh, chaapesh >>>>>>>>>>> 😆

Free stand up by varun and kautak 😂😂

I forgot it was a Tuesday 😂

The best one yet!

The real reason why Indians have been obsessed with cricket actually comes from the point of cultural oppressions, throughout the time period that Britishers ruled over us this game was set as a factor playing major role in hierarchy. Cricket Initially wasn't a game rural Indians could play. Thus this game wasn't just foreign but a standpoint to show status as well in times of gilli danda and hockey. With time the obsession of the game only got bigger enough for other sports to come of as small. Digitization and mass media did play a part but it's got alot to do with the inherent oppressions aswell. Alot of movies have only justified this especially "Lagan". However it's beautiful how something that started off to justify class hierarchy has now reached every street, how almost every father at some point does dream to see his surname on the Indian jersey. However today the game is such an inherent part of our culture today that it is the key establishment of father-child or sibling relationships and has kept adapting with changing times in it's format. Be it T20 or IPL the game has commercialized but because of how intriguing and emotional it can be. Mahi's winning six, Yuvraj's six sixes in a row; watching two same surnames play in one team. It gives an emotion high and unites. Moreover that is what does cause the obsession.

Props to Kautuk for making an effort and changing the angle from the 442 episode

Hey Varun and people. Please do one on 'Coincidences'.. There are many historical stories and I guess pesonal stories would be abundant too

Hey, great podcast. Just a little correction at 27:35, algebra did not really originate in India. It was the work of Hidab Al-Jabr wal muqubalah, an Arab guy. This is the only thing I remember from except Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell XD
