Sasha and Nebulous are back on the couch—and this time they are joined by South-Carolina-based, Canadian-born Tamil comedian Shivani Nadarajah! (@igetitfrommyamma) Shivani spills the tea on transitioning from the hyper-competitive U.S. comedy scene to Singapore's surprisingly welcoming stand-up community, surviving “redneck rivieras”, and why American fireworks warehouses are, apparently, the ultimate places to broker world peace.

Catch Shivani’s headliner at Siao Char Bors Comedy on 10 September! Tickets at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/siao-char-bors-comedy-ft-shivani-nadarajah-tickets-1998167935083

Highlights:

• Southern Comfort & Culture Shocks: Shivani breaks down what it was like growing up as a brown person in rural Alabama and South Carolina, and why moving to Singapore feels like living on a permanent resort.
• Comedy Hierarchies: A deep dive into the wildly different unspoken rules of comedy scenes across continents, and why Singapore's comedy scene beats the "kill-or-be-killed" U.S. circuit.
• The Dry Bar Success: How pivoting to clean corporate comedy during COVID led Shivani to film a 28-minute special in Utah.
• Accents & Ancestors: Dealing with the hilarious confusion of having a deep Southern U.S. drawl paired with Indian heritage while traveling through TSA and international airports.
• Archie Comics & Life Goals: Nebulous goes down an unhinged historical rabbit hole about how the classic love triangle with Betty and Veronica shaped her entire worldview and sexuality.

Sasha and Nebulous dive headfirst into the shady world of digital deception! Nebulous uncovers her (not-so)inner "vulnerable senior" after almost falling for a series of increasingly sophisticated scams—from Carousell iPad mishaps, to a bank scammer who sounded so thoroughly done with her job that it felt legit, to how her oversized comedian ego almost led her to financial ruin with a lesbian catfish. On the other hand, Sasha’s completely immune to phone scams (mostly because she refuses to pick up the phone for anyone) Plus: Why Nebulous remains the prime candidate for future phone scammers while Sasha's husband manages to get scammed on a weekly basis.

Sasha is officially hungover (after having a whole drink and a half post-gig), while Nebulous is questioning her entire approach to comedy. The duo dives deep into the chaotic world of performing live—from the unique challenges of doing stand-up at the Hard Rock Cafe to the brutal, beautiful art of retiring a solid hour of material. Plus: why crowd work is an addiction, what it's like performing to 100 parked electric cars, and why everyone who doesn't love Sasha is technically unlovable.

Highlights:

The Post-Baby Hangover: Sasha recounts her triumphant return to late-night gigging at the Hard Rock Cafe, only to discover that her body now processes a single drink like 17 shots.

The Viking Funeral for Jokes: Sasha details her recent decision to do zero crowd work during a major headline set, meticulously crafting a solid, narrative-driven hour and giving her old material a proper send-off.

Material vs. Organic: Nebulous and Sasha break down the comedy spectrum—comparing script-heavy memorization to high-wire, ad-hoc crowd work, and figuring out when to pivot when a room needs something entirely different.

The 30% Success Rate: Sasha confesses her love-hate relationship with a brilliant baby-burping bit that either completely kills or bombs depending on the room's demographic.

Drive-In Dilemmas: Nebulous looks ahead to a sold-out Singapore drive-in comedy gig where the audience sits in cars, sparking a hilarious debate on whether comedians naturally assume the worst when they can't see faces or hear laughter.

Sasha and Nebulous are back, and this time, they’ve been hijacked by their own conversation! What started as an update on life, comedy, and parenthood took an unexpected turn into the digital realm. The duo dives deep into their complex relationships with AI—specifically Google Gemini—and discovers that their robotic tendencies (or lack thereof) might be more linked to technology than they ever realized.

Highlights:

• The "Robot" Evolution: Nebulous reflects on her journey toward being less of a "robot" and more emotionally centered, leading to a hilarious debate about whether she was ever truly robotic to begin with.
• AI with a Conscience: Sasha shares a raw and vulnerable story about a dark time postpartum and an unexpected moment where AI refused to help her write a goodbye letter to her husband, ultimately showing more sense than she had in the moment.
• The Man Whisperer: Nebulous and Sasha discuss using AI as a tool to navigate relationship disagreements, gain perspective on their partners, and even get a bit of "tough love" when they need to be brought back down to earth.
• The AI Therapy Session: From "hyping up" Nebulous while she does laundry to acting as a buffer for Sasha's marriage, the two confess how much they rely on their digital confidants—and why they’re making sure to be polite to the robots before the inevitable takeover.

Nebulous is officially open(relationship)-ing a can of (polyamorous) worms! Sasha suddenly finds herself as "Head Godmother" in a propagative lesbian root vegetable network, while Nebulous breaks down the "teamwork" of modern queer dating. Are you a "staple him to the wall" kind of partner, or are you One With the Abundance?

Highlights:

• The "Godmother" Loophole: Sasha discovers that saying "yes" to being a godmother came with an unexpected surprise—and now she’s navigating a family tree that is growing exponentially.
• Open Relationships 101: Nebulous gets vulnerable about her own open relationship journey—from how it started, to the "team bonding" of it all, and why she genuinely doesn't get jealous.
• The "Staple Him to the Wall" Scale: Sasha explains her aggressive approach to quality time, while Nebulous defends the "lesbian propagator" lifestyle.
• The "Pink Dot" Pitch: Nebulous tries to convince Sasha that Pink Dot is worth the sweat, provided you bring a neck fan, a cooler bag, and snacks that don't melt.

Sasha is officially back from her maternity hiatus—though she’s brought a few surprises with her! After months of baby-induced silence, she and Nebulous reunite to navigate the bizarre realities of new motherhood.

Highlights:

The Bell’s Palsy Scare: Sasha gets vulnerable about the terrifying moment six days post-birth when her face went paralyzed, and how she navigated motherhood and recovery while "losing her face."

The "Jaundice Lobby": Why formula feeding to flush out jaundice ended up being the secret weapon that actually allowed Sasha to enjoy breastfeeding.

Breastfeeding vs. Implants: The hilarious and honest truth about what happens to… ahem… "enhanced" assets after pregnancy (spoiler: it involves a lot of "plastic baggies" and defying gravity).

Return to the Stage: Sasha explains why her first post-partumbaby set was a total disaster—and why you should never, ever ask a room full of strangers "Who here has kids?"

Pride Month & Pink Dot: Nebulous gets us ready for Pride Month, from her featured role in the Wild Rice play Girls Girls Girls to the sweaty, hilarious logistical nightmare that is Singapore’s "Pink Dot" in a tiny park.

The "AI Baby" Reveal: Why you won’t see JJ’s face on the podcast (yet!), and why Sasha and Nebulous are convinced he’s destined to become an AI influencer.

Sasha and Nebulous are back (despite Sasha no longer being a "single" mum, and Nebulous being the true "fraud" 😜) to dive into the surreal, chaotic, and inspiring world of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival! Nebulous recounts her nine-day run of SLOMOSEXUAL and the wild lessons learned about international comedy, queer culture, and the unexpected perils of basement venues.

Highlights:
The Fringe Hustle: Adapting SLOMOSEXUAL for a white, international audience and giving context to everything from Singapore's history to her identity as a Chinese lesbian.

The Bucket Speech: Nebulous’s hilarious internal debate (the enlightened artist vs. the Chinese Aunty) on whether to ask for money after a free show.

Pushing Boundaries: A speechless (and pregnant) Sasha reacts to Nebulous’s shocking account of a very explicit art routine that could only happen at the Fringe.

Food Feuds: Nebulous falls in love with the Scottish delicacy Tunnock's Tea Cakes, while she and Sasha get into a passionate debate about the correct state of a "chippy chip" (soggy vs. crispy!).

Wasp Drama: A sticky situation on opening night when a wasp attacks an audience member mid-set, requiring a cool-headed "lesbian energy bartender" to save the day.

Yes, a LOT has happened since the last episode. Sasha's preggers and married - not to Nebulous, though (for now).

Highlights:
- Should Sasha have a December baby or a January baby? Debate starts now! - Being 40 and pregnant: decidedly different than the last time round
- OBJECTIVE differences between the UK and Singapore healthcare systems.
- Sasha's daughter's must-have accessory: "mom-canceling" headphones."
