Awful and Awesome Ep 250: Severance, Trust No One, The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent

While talking about the documentary Trust No One: The Hunt for the Crypto King:

Abhinandan: You’re far away from the mic. Then people will not be able to hear you clearly. Then they’ll blame me for sabotage.

Rajyasree: You made it [the mic] so short only.

Abhinandan: You don’t have arms? You can’t pull this towards yourself?

Rajyasree: I have very short arms. You know this very well.

Abhinandan brings the mic closer.

Rajyasree: Don’t, Nikku, you’ll hit me in the face!

Abhinandan: Uff, can we just get another host, ya?

Rajyasree: It’s very unnerving to have the mic so close.

Abhinandan: Each Awful and Awesome episode takes eight months of my life.

Abhinandan and Rajysaree burst out laughing.

This and a whole lot of other stuff awful and awesome as Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen review the film The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent; documentary Trust No One: The Hunt for the Crypto King; web series Severance, and the Uber Rentals ad featuring Anil Kapoor.
