Goat man!
Bloody awesome brindley wije
Isnt that how East and Dutch India companies captured land? You guys want to repeat that?
Not even close, but to explain the difference between holiday making tourists running a side business to meet daily needs vs. hardcore capitalists, sponsored by the crown of their land, sailing to new horizons to make trade at whatever cost necessary would be a waste of time.
Try to do this as a Sri Lankan in Ukrain and Russia and youโll learn how pathetic your point of view is. This is as same as justifying colonisation with the argument that it brought 0.01% benefits compared to destruction. These islanders have been brainwashed for generations. ๐ข
I remember the 1st day I met Thanuja at ozo. I was picturing a girl who was wearing a frock with that name. I never knew she was raised in a foreign country. She just sang brilliantly and just got everyoneโs attention. I was auditioned for her band as a guitarist.
Our childhood heroes!! All the best Bathiya and Suresh aiya๐ค

Props to you Suresh for coming up with this format that gives Sri Lankans an intelligent and meaningful discussion within the podcast space. The production values and audio are outstanding and on par with the best we get to listen to from the world over. You are articulate and put a lot of thought into your questioning which is refreshing from a Sri Lankan host given our folksโ proclivity to fish for answers and voice-cut worthy responses. Massive respect and props to you Machan and been a fan since the Hollow Dreams days! More power to you and all the very best!!!
Greetings Arshed, firstly thank you for taking time to watch the pod episode. It is much appreciated machang. Secondly, your feedback is truly motivational and encouraging for us to keep working on fleshing out the best and most engaging pod content we can. We hope you will keep listening and supporting and giving us your feedback. Thank you once again ๐ฅโค๏ธโ๐ฅ๐ค๐ป
Understand before completing his sentences ๐. And he is not as deep as he is attempting to portray.
Two Twisters BnS : Was everywhere, Buses, stalls, shops, homes so basically it was a BNS Era 1999 - 2005 (if I remember correctly) Suresh: Nearly thrown out of the house listening to this guy. My dad had a couple of Pioneer speakers (Sony Hifi system) so I was curious how surround sound might work in my small bedroom. I slipped one speaker under the bed and the other 3 were placed in the corners the sound was turned up high lights were dimmed playing "Andura" in full swing. My grandma was reciting Pirith on the other side. In seconds the door was kicked open and there was Mom, Grandma, and Grandpa. Mom - Monawada bn me ahana ewa? Me - ""Andura"" ammi Mom - Raata ahana sindu dawalta ahanne nathuwa gihin wadak karagannawa. And dad took away the speakers the next day cos I played them continually. Ended up with cracked window panes, no speakers, Rock music ban for 2 months. ๐ Might be an awkward comment but what the hell. Cheers and godspeed to you two.
Brother, you win the internet comment of the day ๐๐ผ. Love it ๐ฅโค๏ธโ๐ฅ๐ค๐ป
