CHECK LINKS BELOW FOR FLOOD CHARITY SUPPORT

Wasn't sure if there would be a podcast this week considering how the news from Pakistan is calamitous with the floods and despair.

Had a conversation with MystaPaki, noted content creator famous for his coverage of Pakistan and its people on a ground level, that helped change my mind. It isn't a great conversation, not many positives noted if any at all. But if the least we can do is call out problems where we see them, might as well.

Things discussed in this episode:

00:00 Intro & flood relief appeal
03:12 Karachi - drowning in rain, kindness of strangers and forced “resilience”
11:49 Being a doctor in Pakistan - underpaid, overworked, gaslit
19:47 How do people feel about their future across Pakistan? Balochistan vs other provinces
30:12 “Where Did All The Women Go?” - why he made that Reel
39:28 His unusual, at times uncomfortable recent visit to Bosnia
48:19 The existential threat these floods pose, and how Karachi will again be at the center
56:11 People leaving Pakistan, our bubbles within bubbles, poor people with 10 kids
1:03:30 Would he ever consider leaving? What’s keeping him in Pakistan?
1:10:50 Abrupt outro
