Growing up as Boys and Girls with Richa Chadha | How To Citizen | Chapter 4
In this episode of "Growing Up as Boys & Girls," we're spilling the tea on the biggest party pooper of them all: patriarchy. Richa Chadha dives deep into the 7th Grade CBSE Civics Chapter 4 and has some fun – including doodling a doll that she had as a child and performing a dramatic reading of a comic panel as a Punjabi dad. Yeah, that happened. She talks about how patriarchy affects women's experiences, but how it creates some seriously uncomfortable situations for men too. From toxic masculinity to unrealistic gender expectations, we talk about all the buzzkills that come with living in a patriarchal society. But we're not just here to complain. Drawing from her experiences as a former child, Richa also shares some tips on how to change things up and challenge those pesky societal norms. Because who says we can't have a good time and smash the patriarchy at the same time? So grab a drink, kick back, and join us for "Growing Up as Boys & Girls." It's the podcast episode that's way more fun than your average feminist critique.

How the State Government Works with Priyanka Chaturvedi | How To Citizen | Chapter 3
In this episode of our podcast, we decided to invite Priyanka Chaturvedi, a Member of Parliament in India's Rajya Sabha, to teach us how the state government works. Because let's be honest, most of us have no idea what's happening there!  But fear not, we have made it hilarious with all the important questions, like, "Is TV News the New Entertainment?" and  "What bag is she carrying currently?" We have also discussed important matters, like the curious case of Shiv Senas in the country and how our government actually works, but we have done it all with a side of laughter and a sprinkle of sarcasm. So come join us for an episode that's equal parts informative and hilarious. Who knows, you might even learn a thing or two about state government! Or not. But at least you'll have fun trying.  NCERT 7th Grade Civics Textbook where you can find the chapter for an immersive experience : https://ncertbooks.solutions/ncert-books-class-7/civics/  References: - https://prsindia.org/mptrack/rajya-sabha/priyanka-vickram-chaturvedi - https://youtu.be/8UNzC9rzq6g - https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/battle-over-juhu-beautification-work-continues/articleshow/90967080.cms - https://www.indiatoday.in/magazine/nation/story/19980601-despite-thin-majority-bjp-led-govt-plans-ambitious-business-schedule-for-budget-session-826471-1998-05-31 - https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/eknath-shinde-faction-recognised-as-real-shiv-sena-allotted-bow-and-arrow-symbol/article66521586.ece - https://www.livelaw.in/top-stories/uddhav-thackeray-vs-eknath-shinde-live-updates-from-supreme-court-hearing-in-shiv-sena-case-feb-23-222285 - https://mobile.twitter.com/priyankac19/status/1349612128131375109?lang=en - https://rajyasabha.nic.in/Committees/StandingCommittees?id=1 - https://www.legalserviceindia.com/legal/article-5399-anti-defection-laws-in-india-10th-schedule-of-the-constitution-of-india.html - https://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-others/tarun-gogois-ex-confidante-himanta-biswa-sarma-joins-bjp-in-style/ - https://www.indiatoday.in/elections/story/times-bjp-formed-governments-in-states-without-crossing-majority-mark-2305987-2022-12-06 - https://indianexpress.com/article/express-exclusive/since-2014-4-fold-jump-in-ed-cases-against-politicians-95-per-cent-are-from-opposition-8163060/ Follow Priyanka Chaturvedi here: https://twitter.com/priyankac19?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor Follow Our host Meghnad S here: https://twitter.com/Memeghnad Follow Our co-host Shreyas Manohar here: https://instagram.com/shreyas_manohar?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= Connect with us at: allaboutnow@pratilipi.com  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On Equality With Omar Abdullah | How To Citizen | Chapter 1
What is equality? Is equality just an unattainable ideal? Or is it a hoax to make everyone feel good about themselves? Also, did our hosts waste a lot of time on a Shikara wondering what to call our guest? How to Citizen SEASON 2 has arrived to deal with all your existential angst! This season, we're going BIG. And what can be bigger than flying down to Kashmir & making Omar Abdullah read a 7th grade CBSE civics chapter? The answer is nothing.  In the first episode, our hosts Meghnad S & Shreyas Manohar read civics with coffee nerd and one of the coolest people on Twitter, Omar Abdullah. Wait, did we mention he was the former CM of the erstwhile state of Jammu & Kashmir? Little details. They discuss Chapter 1 titled "On Equality". The discussions meander from Equality in Indian democracy to caste politics to Pegasus to Omar schooling his school teachers.  Enjoy this full of banter episode!
