Pod#112 - Neelaksh Mathur - Standup Comedy in India, Pakistan, home & more!

Neelaksh Mathur is a stand-up comedian from Bangalore who is one of the bravest and most hard working comics I've seen. In this episode we talk about how he started comedy in Ahmadabad, Gujarat, about bombing in front of 600 people in an auditorium, about how he balances his hectic comedy schedule with studying for his degree, about his thought process while doing an hour of stand up and about his keen interest in politics. Have a fun listen!
