EP.86 - MONA CHALABI

Adam talks with British stand up comedian, actor and radio host Nish Kumar about football, communal baths, India, comedy, angry political exchanges and towards the end we take a deep dive into some of the music Nish has loved over the years, including Bob Dylan, Prince and the highs and lows of being a Bowie fan. Speaking of Zavid, there’s a very special musical treat at the end of our conversation for Nish and Bowie fans alike, depending that is, on your definition of the words ‘special’, ‘musical’, and ‘treat’.
