Description

This week, Kate sits down with Aparna Shewakramani, the breakout star of Netflix's hit show Indian Matchmaking, to discuss all things reality tv, matchmaking, first dates, strategic editing, double standards, and of course, Bolivian Salt Flats. She provides really insightful context in terms of the origin of the show, the actual dialogue that happened on the dates (pre-editing), and her experience (so far) emerging as a polarizing character. Does she really hate beaches and comedy? Find out all that and more on this week's episode!https://www.cnn.com/style/article/indian-matchmaking-netflix-intl-hnk-beauty/index.htmlhttps://www.vulture.com/article/everything-aparna-hates-indian-matchmaking.htmlhttps://www.vulture.com/2020/07/indian-matchmaking-dating-reality-tv-colorism.htmlhttps://www.cnn.com/2020/07/29/entertainment/smriti-mundhra-indian-matchmaking/index.htmlSupport our sponsor:New customers will get 10% off their first order on glossier.com/podcast/bethereinfive

Be There in Five is a pop culture and millennial zeitgeist-focused podcast by Kate Kennedy (entrepreneur, author, pop culture commentator). Long-form and solo hosted, Be There in Five explores different facets of popular culture in a comedic, thoughtful, and analytical way, covering entertainment, social media, bloggers/influencers, and celebrities, in addition to focusing on the humor found in reexamining the 90s/00s as an adult (from AIM to Zenon). As one listener described it, “come for the relatable humor and lighthearted topics, stay for the surprising levels of depth and thoughtfulness injected into them.”
