Two inquisitive friends set out to explore their random interests further. Merl, the non-fiction reader is curious about a plethora of things including analytics and sports, while Niro, the fiction lover, loves to spend her time reading up on random facts, philosophy and indulging in movies. We hope our discussions on our interests enlighten our audience as well, in the quest to gather more knowledge and seek truth.

We are overwhelmed with a whole load of information thrown our way day in, day out. Some malicious lies, and some selective truths carefully crafted to appeal to certain factions.
