Alternate DiaMentions: Recent Episodes
Kishan Kumar
D&N are back. Finally I got some time from them. The episode is ati-random, I just played along and recorded what came my way. You can get glimpses of the changing genres Dia is reading, Nilu's new levels of naughtiness and enough dad-bashing to keep you engaged. This one is, direct-dilse. So, have fun, everyone!
A must listen episode where an 8 year old cracks the exam code. What role does meditation play in cracking exams? What's the correlation between demand and supply? And many many more fun conversations.
In this vacation episode, Dia is joined by Veda and they speak about their latest collaboration The Ammachi. This is also the first Alternate DiaMentions episode with a readymade trailer. Hope you enjoy this new episode with DV
Started as a harmless discussion around school, this episode turned out to be a music education class for Achha by D&N. Ft Beethoven, Paris Paloma, Blackpink, Taylor Swift and many more.
Finally, an episode! It took a world famous popular culture icon to force D out of her podcast hibernation. This episode is as pink as the Barbe World and as fun and random as our normal episodes. And yes, D is on her usual 2X speed while chatting as I huff and puff catching up.
PS: The poor jokes have become poorer; I promise to get worse as we go forward.
A 10 min bedtime random episode where Nilu helps Acha get deeper into the amazing world of K-pop and Blackpink. 100% sleep guaranteed:)
What makes Dia sadder? A sad book or a sad movie? In the year ender episode, Dia decodes World War II through a book she read & a movie she saw recently. Plus 25 random topics like Avatar 2 review, strong views on marketing, new ter resolutions and many more!
Baklawa, Beepland, bedtime bakbak -- another random episode that has dark humor, travel experiences, philosophy, sports trivia, cricket bashing etc. Also has Dia's devilish scheme to make me commit a Disneyland trip on air!

It's Nila's b'day and the 3 of us do an impromptu episode. The most chaotic and indisciplined episode ever! Where Cancerian Diya and Virgo Nila teaches Scorpion dad all things about Zodiac signs. And goes all over the place in the process!
This wonderful story of a sportpwrson whose love for the game helped him discover an even a bigger love!
The most independent episode ever! Where we travelled from Dia's Laws of Motion to what or who are fingerlings to agonies of doing homework to breaking stereotypes.
In a totally unplanned bedtime sleepisode, we talk about dreams and nightmares. It was my dream to do an episode like this and I'm sure this will surely put you all to sleep:)
An episode with insights on geography & gymnastics, mummification & music, Egypt & Mexico, Camela Cabello & SS Sniperwolf.
We're back! The incredibly random episode (filled with bad jokes) where Dia and Nila techducates Achha about how to buy phones, know about dinosaurs & operating systems.
The episode where D turns host. With her programmer, game designer uncle. Where she talks about her under-privileged parents. Where technology meets philosophy of life -- " when I become older, the world will be (my) monitor"

In her bedtime conversation with her dad, Nature Nila does an impromptu Q&A session on birds. With guest appearances by Anil Kumble a d Ajit Agarkar. Be kind to the randomness:)
Season 2 begins on a white canvas, as Dia says. This episode is all about finding magic in everyday things. Disguised as an episode on folktales from Asia.
On Teacher's Day, in the season finale of Alternate DiaMentions, Dia's 6 year-old sister Nila joins us from Kochi in a special episode on our biggest teacher -- Mother Nature.
In this episode, among many things, she talks about her biggest dream of meeting David Attenborough. In the process, she answers a lot of questions -- Do monkeys learn from their mistakes? Why do birds of paradise really dance? How do sea otters eat the prickly sea urchins despite having no hands? Why are pink flamingos pink? And some tips on how to feed plants with water and carbon dioxide and things to remember while scuba diving. And yes, not to forget the bonus for our dear listeners -- a professional demonstration on "how to howl like a wolf".
Yenjoy the ride and we promise to be soon back with Dia and her Season 2 of Alternate DiaMentions.
മലയാളത്തിൻ്റെ ഒരേ ഒരു ചക്രവർത്തി. പ്രശസ്തി ഇഷ്ടപ്പെടാത്ത, കവിയല്ലാത്ത, പാട്ടും കഥയും പരസ്യവും ഡോക്യുമെൻ്ററിയും അനിമേഷണും ഒരേപോലെ വഴങ്ങുന്ന, കാൽപ്പാടുകൾ ബാകിവെയ്ക്കാൻ ആഗ്രഹിക്കാത്ത ഷിബു ചക്രവർത്തി.

ലെനിൻ രാജേന്ദ്രൻ എന്ന അതുല്യ സംവിധായകൻ മലയാള സിനിമയ്ക്ക് വളരെ നല്ല കുറച്ചു പാട്ടുകൾ നൽകിയ ഒരു സംഗീത സ്നേഹി കൂടി ആണ്. ആ പാട്ടുകളുടെ പിന്നാമ്പുറത്തേയ്ക്ക്.
