Happy Valentine’s Day - Love, Culture & Chaos in India | That’s Just How We Talk

Welcome to Episode 17 of That’s Just How We Talk! It’s our Valentine’s Day Special - but as usual, we start with “warm-ups” and then spiral into chaos! We play a 1-Minute Rent game on people who say “let’s catch up” and the entire concept of Valentine’s Day, then go deep into the weird history of Valentine’s - from Roman rituals to secret marriages to “Vinegar Valentines”. We also talk about India’s Valentine’s Day culture, moral policing, PDA awkwardness, why cities need “safe spaces” for couples, and why affection is so hard to express in Indian families. Plus: the weirdest Valentine’s gifts given by people and institutions on the internet. And yes - I give Ismeet her own valentine’s day gift - the awesome @boAt-lifestyle Chrome Iris - a watch that’s both pretty AND smart - ordered in minutes through Instamart #ad #ThatsJustHowWeTalk #ValentinesDaySpecial #ValentinesDayIndia #IndianCouplePodcast #CouplePodcast #RelationshipPodcast #ComedyPodcast #HinglishPodcast #ValentinesDayHistory #VinegarValentine #PDAInIndia #IndianCulture #LoveAndRelationships #MumbaiLife #PodcastClips #FunnyPodcast #IndianComedy #CoupleBanters #ValentinesGifts #WeirdGifts Spotify Link: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0t1xaOo5teCJ2shkzgRyIz?si=dBWp5plTQtyHN4WhZHdcoQ Follow us everywhere: Gursimran: https://instagram.com/gursimrankhamba Ismeet: https://instagram.com/ismeetkohli Show Page: https://instagram.com/thatsjusthowwetalk Khamba's Show Tickets: https://linktr.ee/gursimrankhamba The Stars who made the show happen!
