He usually talks calmly, if you see his content not related to stand-up wheather it's some talk show or his quizzes with Unacademy founder etc. But when he's on stage, that's when you see Biswa 'Mast admi' :)
It was always great when Biswa appeared in various Podcasts. He always has that deep insight to subjects that interests him... Can't be happier to know he has his own podcast now ❤️ 🔥 ❤️
Biswa is a Minimalist in nature. Being popular doesn't change him. Fame doesn't get to him. If you notice you will see he listen carefully to others rather than just talking by himself. He is a natural guy. That's why people love him.
I want to say something about the dark ages. It is considered dark from the perspective of Europe only. There was ignorance in Europe only, but not in the Middle East. The Middle East was ruled by Muslim Rulers and their science and technology were peaking. These are called dark ages because of religious reasons as well. Europeans after the fall of Constantinople learned a lot of scientific concepts from the Arabs and then developed on them. And fun fact: the times we call renaissance is also only for Europe because at this time Arabs were in their so-called dark ages. I am consciously not saying anything about the other parts of the world because that will be very long. My point is that a lot of history we learn, especially world history, is Europe centric and I think that we should try to learn about more perspectives too. I think it becomes more important for us as we are not in Europe and are not Europeans. I didn't want to make the last point because the version of history we should know should be not about the ethnicity of people, but unfortunately, it is and I feel sorry for this. I was not trying to be condescending but if you felt that tone, then I must apologise for that. I hope you guys will take it in a positive vein and will deepen your curiosities instead of being disheartened. PS: Loved the initiative!
But Many Arabs travelled to india at that time as well & took our inventions and presented as their own . Like Most of Arabs think 0 and Decimal System was invented by them.
Fun fact about questioning of god due to disease: Aldous Huxley’s, the author of Brave New World, grandfather Thomas Henry Huxley worked with Darwin on theory of evolution and coined the term agnostic/agnosticism.
Heyy, that theory is no longer functional though. The modern theory is an integration of Hugo de Vries’ mutation theory and Darwin’ s concept of natural selection. Also, I was really happy to read your comment :)
Biswa and Podcasts =high level Knowledge and facts coming your way... Kumar Varun is also very very smart... Such podcasts are so fun and informative at the same time
Take a moment to appreciate Varun as well. This comments section reminds me of Biswa saying "keep writing how cute Kanan looks because I have no heart" in one of the Pretentious Movie Reviews episodes😅❤
@@shashankjoshi2656 how does this prove we invented aeroplanes? ek bande ne vaccine banaya to iska matlab uske countrymen ne wheel bhi invent kia hoga!
@@jayantapanda2116 Sanskrut and French (descendent of Latin) both come from PIE. Sanskrut is however not the mother of the European branch of the IE languages.
Fun Fact: I just googled spanish flu and there is a new york times story about a 101 year old guy who was born during spanish flu and he has recovered from corona virus
Yeah I read about him in the beginning, there was also a lady, 101 years old who has suffered form a lot of deseases in old age, cancer included if I remember correctly and she was alive and her life was endangered in WW II as well...so she survived a lot
The way Biswa says "Yeah" in conversation is like he is listening to you with all the attention and understanding your emotions , like he is looking into your soul ...😌 I know this sounds crazy 😄 But Biswas's yeah is more assuring than anyone's tons of words.
This podcast just made me appreciate the quality of education that icse provides, like in standard 3 we were taught how Edward Jenner discovered the vaccine, the story surrounding it, the concept of incubation period and just how vaccines work in such a simple yet amazingly interesting way. Btw great content guys! Loved this episode and waiting for more :)
Isce is much underappreciated, it grilled us like anyththing but made us much more knowledgeable, ofcourse I'm talking about their of who actually learned and not mugged cause isce did make mugging up a need for some people with the sheer size of the study load
Dude I'm studied in several schools, both cbse and icse board, and they were both equally shit and amazing in number. . I personally prefer cbse because it gave me more freedom to explore my various other hobbies and interests and study something other than textbooks on my own. People underestimate icse's knowledge as well as cbse's potential lol. But I think it also depends on the school where you're studying.
Now, most of the vaccines don't include the original strains of virus or parasite for which they are being developed. That's an inherently old technique. The modern way of developing vaccines is to include the messenger RNA into the vaccine so that the body immediately recognizes it to create anti-bodies. Only for certain cases, the traditional technique of injecting some virus/parasitic material is employed. Nice podcast BTW. :)
It's obviously not widely used. But, some vaccines are live because they are more efficient that way, like polio, mumps, rotavirus. These are called live attenuated because they have the potential to produce an 'infection' but not a disease.
the polio vaccine guy they are talking about is albert sabin and he was from my university, university of cincinnati. I feel pity for him dude he deserved nobel prize
I loved this podcast so much! Me and husband were discussing the Latin origin of Corona, the past present future bacterial immunity thing and the Spanish Flu ka namkaran thing and listening to all of that here made my day!! I used to hate history but i love it so much now.. Please continue this podcast, man!
In all the theories and sci fi and movies and pop culture about time travel, somehow I never came across this "role" that diseases and immunity would play! Seems so painfully obvious now. Loved this guys!
Now that's what we call an amazing podcast. No bragging, no jargons, no self self-appraisals, just two cool dudes talking about cool stuff. Keep up the show man.
Would love to see more of these!!!! Few considerations- 1. Better sound.-Currently the voice is very low. 2.Facing front on- It feels bit off ,does not need to be in center but atleast horizontal. 3.Topic- Please consider Industrial Revolution for one of your podcast. Oh, one more. please add the name of the book, its not in the description.
Kudos to you guys!! Comedians talking about history and immunology... That's amazing! History has really done huge injustice to all those great, selfless people you mentioned (and let's not forget Alexander Fleming, who discovered the first antibiotic - Penicillin) inspite of their humongous favours on humanity (by not even patenting their discoveries)! Physicists have always been in limelight but sadly these microbiologists have never received that pleasure, which is a shame for us benefitting generations. You guys discussed about Jenner, Salk and Sabin, Jon Snow (Father of Epidemiology) whom the general public, except Medicos/Veterinarians/Pharmacists/Microbiologists, might not know about, and I really want to thank you both for that! Please keep doing this wonderful thing!
This is amazing! Don't stop making new episodes. As an ever curious person who loves hanging out with friends and chilling I feel like this podcast is the best of both worlds. Lots of love Biswa and Kumar
Loved the podcast, please keep posting! Small correction though at ~ 26:45 , The Plague of Justinian was responsible for causing almost half of the deaths in Europe, not the world.
As a doctor I must say Biswa has good insight and high IQ. Kya padhta hai be. I think you people should have studied history and policy making than going for engineering. When will we as a country start aptitude based career choices. Respect for both. They could have easily put some joke n shit but these things mattered and will happen again in a slightly different manner.
If only the sound was a lil high.. You guys are not that audible... Also regarding antibiotics , yes it's true , y'll are suppose to finish the complete course of it to prevent resistance.
Hey guys! This was an amazing listen! As a fellow trivia and Indian history fan, I had some ideas which I would love to see you guys talk about. 1. Indian political history: from the formation of INC till today. 2. Sports, particularly sports we were good in in earlier time: football from 1950-1960, badminton in the 80s and 90s, Amritraj Brothers in the 70s 3. Indian cinema Expanding out to the world 1. Unknown empires which were majestic in their primes: Olmec, Moche 2. History of football, from the first world cup in 1930
I love how Biswa acts surprised when Varun tells him how the Spanish Flu Got it's name. This is a well known story, especially in the UPSC aspirants circle.
It's a BISWAISM....I always want to listen you brother relentlessly. I am a big adherent of history. This podcast is so enriching. Thanks for making us rich.
Well there should have been a light on how south east asia has been tackleing the situations like pandaemics through centuries.. Even about "age of mahajanpads" there are little to no information about the scientific literature or practices done in indian subcontinent. And also these history of dark ages were only dark for Europeans Coz chinese and other middle eastern empires had their golden age as they were scientifically advanced Before the "Renaissance age of Europe". Also pandaemic of 1918 killed more people in indian subcontinent then the entire Europe...
**Just a correction: The Dark Ages that Varun was talking about which started in the 6th century were the literal Dark Ages and not the metaphorical one that he explained as ignorance and lack of science. So, it was literal because, in the 6th century around 536 AD, a volcano erupted in the Iceland, due to which most of the earth especially the Europe was covered in the volcanic dust which did not let the sunlight to penetrate the atmosphere. So, it resulted in a perpetual darkness up to 18 months. Due to which crops died and a worldwide famine took place which led to malnutrition, poor immune system and eventually The Justininan Plague.
Biswa referring to "Guns, germs and steel" and Kumar Varun speaking about "John Snow's research on cholera". This is one of the best Indian podcast. Great initiative...
Really enjoyed this guys, you both had a good balance of facts and humour. Hopefully you'll ease into your own style in time. Well done and thank you for an informative and different approach to a 'topical topic', have a great socially distanced weekend, look forward to the next podcast 😷
Great podcast! Keep it up. One trivia about impact that TB has had on Indian History - Peshwa Madhavrao the first, who was grandson of Peshwa Bajirao and came to power in 1760 after Marathas lost the battle of Panipat died of Tuberculosis at the age of 27 in 1772. He was rebuilding the Maratha confederacy (Mughals were nominal rulers by that time, Peshwas ruled from Pune to Delhi-Bengal.) He had to scale back the unification efforts due to ill health. His death is considered a bigger blow to Maratha state than the defeat of Panipat. The efforts to cure him of the decease make a great story in themselves. After his death the intrigue of succession derailed the entire Maratha power thus paving way for EIC's conquest of India.
A podcast on pandemics and epidemics will probably be the first and last episode for a while.....the irony. Btw loved this one Biswa. Hope you get to do these after the lockdown.
This is the most chillax and fun podcast i've seen in a while!!! I LAUGHED and got so much INFORMATION about history at the same time!!! how did i not see this in march!!! hats off guys!! love the vibe of this poscast!!! keep going
Always was looking for a YT Channel looking at history through an Indian prism. The available likes of Unacademy/ Study IQ were boring/ dull & all foreign channels neglected India. So really grateful for this ( Namaste Emoji)
Bro, Dark ages was actually google Golden age of Islam. It's called Dark ages because, it was the Dark Ages for Westerners. Alot of Modern Science is based on the Golden age of Islam. Algebra Algorithms all came from Al Khwarizmi.
OK, so biswa finally remembered that he has his own youtube channel.
This joke finally needs to die.

He usually talks calmly, if you see his content not related to stand-up wheather it's some talk show or his quizzes with Unacademy founder etc.
But when he's on stage, that's when you see Biswa 'Mast admi' :)
Watch his podcast with Kenny and SNG etc.
He is very calm and intelligent to speak on any topic with a little amount of fun.

The French word for cow is "vache".. eventually becoming vaccination.

Now, most of the vaccines don't include the original strains of virus or parasite for which they are being developed. That's an inherently old technique. The modern way of developing vaccines is to include the messenger RNA into the vaccine so that the body immediately recognizes it to create anti-bodies.

We still have live vaccines. As well as killed and conjugate Vaccines.
@@snigdhasehgal2682 Is it still a widely acceptable practice, or slowly being overridden? Or is it something to do with the equipment?
It's obviously not widely used. But, some vaccines are live because they are more efficient that way, like polio, mumps, rotavirus. These are called live attenuated because they have the potential to produce an 'infection' but not a disease.
2 of the most inteligent persons of Indian comic scene in one podcast ❤❤❤❤❤
It’s amazing how Biswa does not follow the trend of and does everything based on his interests.

True.. its not their genre.. biswa is sometimes just speechless.. finding words
The way Biswa laughs and smiles when Varun talks about death concerns me. 6:22

Always was looking for a YT Channel looking at history through an Indian prism. The available likes of Unacademy/ Study IQ were boring/ dull & all foreign channels neglected India. So really grateful for this ( Namaste Emoji)
We want to here that "banter"
Biswa thanks for asking him to expand on definitions of dark ages, etc. helps people get a context.
Tell me this: HOW DID YOU TRAVEL DURING THE CURFEW? THIS STUDIO Is NOT in your building , is it?
The way Biswa says " my uneducated opinion" ... I wish every figure was humble enough to accept it
Bro, Dark ages was actually google Golden age of Islam.
It's called Dark ages because, it was the Dark Ages for Westerners.
Alot of Modern Science is based on the Golden age of Islam. Algebra Algorithms all came from Al Khwarizmi.
So what now islamic World have worst dark ages do something about it amd come and claim those stuffs
