About this listen
Once considered harmless fun, many old (and even new) comedies rely on stereotypes, body-shaming, sexism, and jokes that simply don’t hold up today. In this episode, Gowtham, Saravanan, Alavudeen, and Udhayakumar dissect the world of regressive comedy—why it existed, why it worked back then, and why it feels outdated now.
Are filmmakers refusing to evolve? Are audiences still encouraging problematic humor? And can comedy be both funny and responsible?
