    Please keep on doing what you do. We Pakistanis do not have the courage to accept the fact that we are living in stone age, rather we get defensive. As long as people do not identify the problem, it could not be fixed. Keep on spitting facts. More power to you!

    In terms of content heroes, we should reference Azfar and Mani for sab set hai, the TPC guys, jeans, college, VJ which was done by Adil Ibrahim, Faisal Qureshi, Ahsan Rahim. Even before that our original content creators behind fifty fifty, geetar 93, gullz & guyz, rhythm of unity, supreme ishq, loose talk the entire studio series, which was very smart, intelligent relatable comedy content. So maybe the ability to laugh at ourselves and the state we find ourselves in has been continuing for some time which is why we find it safe to do just that and keep coming back to it, in addition to everything else you guys spoke about.

    What's the problem saying you live in SHARJAH, not in Dubai. Secondly, this whole podcast shows the insecurity between both of the guys (CONFUSED DESI'S) trying to get success in GCC. Get your fact straight and face the reality which is fucking hard Middle East is not an easy place to survive until and unless you have solid plans (SHORT-TERM). This person is not able to accept that he is living in SHARJAH cant have nor get any clarity moving fwd in his life. However, discuss these things in private instead of making it public as (PODCAST) so called... so it wont show how stupid two grown-ups can be. Global citizen? with this mind set and content? Great hats off! Jafferies, zaidis SYED's Hijrat very good.

Moreover, when fluffy say Indians can't rob a bank he's pointing towards south indians. You south people are more loyal and obedient to your bosses and i can say it b/c i use to manage both south and north people.

    Indian is a geographical identity .. People living by the River Indus are called Indians .. If partition had to happen and that was inevitable at that time .. ok .. then why did we give away our identity ? ... instead of Pakistan ... I would have chosen Industan or something like that .. we share common history, so why should we as Pakistanis lose our identity, heritage, and culture.

    You are asking for honesty and positivity from the audience but are you yourself always honest in your own content? As for criticizing people for questioning the rationale behind a move to Dubai and labelling it as leg pulling. Why do you consider it as a irrational and leg pulling? Living in Dubai proper is more expensive than many western countries, so it makes sense for people to wonder how can one just move there without a consistent and reasonable source of income.
