Fixing Schedule

“When I was working for radio and television, I was living like a bat. It got so bad, at times, I was sleeping at 7 in the morning”.

“It is easy to change the sleep cycle. All you have to do is force yourself to sleep early, by getting yourself tired. Now I get up at 7 in the morning”.

“People think it’s cool, and I enjoyed living in the second half of the day. I enjoyed being alone, and there is no one to talk to at 4 am, so it was great. But it was getting terrible, so, I started fixing it. My health has improved after doing so”. 

 

Death

“Recently, I have started thinking about death. I still feel I am living in my younger year. I don’t know if it’s a mid-life crisis or random thoughts, but I recently realized that I am done with half my life. I am 40 now. You don’t think of death till you reach this age, and seeing your kids grow up adds to this as you are reminded of your mortality”.

 

Fatherhood

“You see yourself in your child as they grow up. I never thought this would affect me. We all have grown up making up, and suddenly you have a kid and realize you are sensitive”. 

“People say your life changes the day your kid is born. For me, it was a week later. I was holding her one day, I just had a thought of what if she doesn’t want to be friends with me? And at that very moment, she grabbed hold of me and at that moment I fell in love”.

 

People Expect You To Be Funny

“People expect you to be funny all the time. It is annoying. I like to do nothing when I am not recording. I am anti-social”.

 

Future Of Podcasting

“There were podcasts like Plan B and AIB podcasts. There would be a few podcasts that might have been unaware of, so KaanMasti wasn’t the first Indian podcast”.

“When we started with podcasting, we were doing MP3. We had a lot of downloads. I used to take screenshots to flex it. But having a website and uploading MP3 was too much work”. 

“YouTube is better for the distribution of content. The more real the contact, the more people will be hooked. With podcasts, I feel there is only an upwards journey”. 

 

Television and Radio V/S YouTube

“Radio and TV were controlled, which is not a good thing. Digital is less control again, not a great thing. There are people finding flaws in everyone”.

 

Dark Side Of The Porn Industry

“There are a few documentaries on how porn is made, and people are being exploited. It is a murky business. A lot of it is unreal. People’s expectations changes after watch porn”.

 

Does Number Effects You?

“I am affected, not obsessively, but I ‌keep a check. YouTube is the platform where you get paid for content. With Instagram, monetization has not started yet, and people are putting out their content there for free. If you don’t post often, on Instagram your numbers go down”. 

“You are subconsciously aware of the number. You will feel anxious if you are not creating content. I make content whenever I feel like it”.

 

Weird Dream

“When I was a kid, I saw a dark silhouette coming out from the curtains in my bedroom. I felt being grabbed by my neck and my neck being squeezed. I tried waking up my mom, but she told me to go back to sleep. I think I said a prayer, and it left. It could have been a dream”.

“Since I have started fixing my sleep schedule, I am having weird dreams. I wake up exhausted. I had dreams of being on a trek, meeting the Prime minister of Pakistan, and spending an entire night searching for my car. Once I dreamt of having a conversation with Joey from F.R.I.E.N.D.S. about making content for old people. I remember all the details of my dream”.

 

Marriage

“I feel I got married because I found the person with whom I can see myself till the end. She is amazing, she got my back, and she is my best friend. I feel opposites attract each other. She was a director and producer on MTV, and that is where we met. We dated for a year before marriage”. 

“The first month is nice. By the second and third months, you will know where they leave their towel and how they live their life. In this sense, you will realize where your space ends and begins. You have to get used to this”.
