American Born Chatty Desis (A·B·C·D)

About American Born Chatty Desis (A·B·C·D)

"ABCD (American Born Confused Desi)" is being redefined in new livestream/podcast series American Born Chatty Desis hosted by internet personalities Sandeep Parikh (The Guild, The Legend of Neil) and Omar Najam (Dimension 20). The two hosts (and a sometimes exciting guest) in front of a live chat, with a fast and loose format where they check in with their chakras, debate over their American roots v. Desi heritage then close with a ridiculous game! Come for the light hearted commentary, stay for the deep insights into life from the second generation point of view.
