In our final episode of Season 1, we have a wide-ranging and fascinating discussion about growing up Indian-American with Anuj. He tells us about missing out on girlfriends due to beliefs around being born at the wrong time of day, why he hates being asked where he is from, and expresses his appreciation for the Indian representation in the hit Netflix show "Never Have I Ever."
