This time we talk about bros, who run everything from influential social media platforms to newsrooms and spiritual empires and their highly problematic views on gender among many things. We’ve been saying these things for the last SIX (!!!) years, but like always our daaju bhaais refuse to engage with any of the criticism cos that’s how they #thrive.

It’s all about Nepali uncle हरुको कान्ड this month, from बजेट चलखेल behind चुकुल लाको doors to सुनको लौरो “flying” to Jhapa bypassing the customs office at TIA. Buddha was born in Nepal wala पावन भूमीमा यति धेरैं चलखेल, जालझेल? Boju Bajai thinks Nepal Tourism Board should rethink their promos and maybe add “All बिचौलियाहरु and also Buddha was born in Nepal.” Link to The Nepali Man - https://soundcloud.com/bojubajai/the-nepali-man If you like our laugh and guff gaff, please do consider supporting our work on Patreon: www.patreon.com/bojubajai Follow @Bojubajai on social media for more laughs: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bojubajai/​​ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bojubajai​​ Twitter: https://twitter.com/BojuBajai​​ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNYRGvqtpi1aHAucXGcNWRw
