About this listen
In this sneak peek into Season 3, the hosts along with Ashmal and Bilawal take a brief, nostalgic look at the cultural decay of Pakistan through a half-comedic, half-tragic lens: why has Pakistan’s music and film industry flatlined? What killed artistic innovation? And why does every pop star end up in Laundry Detergent commercials, selling out to Bollywood, or starring in a Ramzan game show?
The crew discuss Imran Khan’s rise and fall as a symptom of deeper cultural rot (3:15), the country’s vanishing relevance in a multipolar world (5:20). and Coke Studio’s recycling addiction (9:15), as well as what happens when a people lose the will to imagine something new — the spiritual death of art in the absence of ideological or revolutionary energy (12:25).
This isn’t just a diaspora rant—it’s a sleepy-eyed autopsy of Pakistani soft power, from its music to its politics.
