About this listen

 Two people. One soul. And a pair of washing up gloves.

Sometimes insightful, often absurd, Ilyas and Shy journey towards the crux of their existence whilst doing the washing up. On this path to enlightenment (and clean dishes) they inevitably attract the attention of notorious cult figures who seek to thwart their attempts at transcendence. If you are looking for an existential comedy to heal you from the banality of existence and the pains of washing up, this may well be the sonic encounter you are looking for.Ilyas Kassam and Shy Teli Philosophy Social Sciences Spirituality

    Dec 24 2020
    Ilyas and Shy, influenced by Shy's bathroom mirror, explore the concept of having multiple souls. Whilst exploring their differing "ruling souls," the conversation inevitably forks down the divergent paths of Lockdowns, Michael Jackson, Identity and the Poetry of Fernando Pessoa.

    Ilyas and Shy explore Patience; how patient they are, if its innate, and if it's really that important. Whilst becoming increasingly impatient with each other, the conversation inevitably forks down the divergent paths of Babies, Anger, the Jungle and Mental Health.

    S3 E8: Eschewing (ft. The Ghost of Ben Okri)
    Apr 12 2020
    Ilyas and Shy, saddened by the passing of Ben Okri, explore whether or not they actively eschew understanding aspects of their lives in order to maintain their sanity. Whilst trying to define the word eschewing, the conversation inevitably forks down the divergent paths of Natural Selection, Wisdom, Love and Mental Health. **It has since been made clear to us by Ben Okri himself, that he is much very much alive and well**
