(Podcast) Encounter with Shopping Subbarao

Admin — Fri, 26 Aug 2011 10:50:19 +0000

**** Just reposting this popular podcast from a year ago -- in case you’ve missed it earlier *****

I have already posted the script of my fake encounter with the fictional Shopping Subba Rao in an earlier post. Call this work crooked social commentary or comedy -- Kanaka Prasad and I were correct in thinking that Shopping Subbarao is going to strike a nerve. If the opportunity comes, I will explain the motivation behind this skit. But, as I mentioned in a reply to one of the comments, let me emphasize a couple of things here:

Not only Telugu people – a lot of 2nd generation and later Americans (regardless of race and ethnic background) do these things. Don’t you remember Claude Allen -- a senior official in the Bush administration, who had to resign due to shoplifting charges? His antics are also in this play.
As I said, there is some self criticism here. Just read between the lines.

There is nothing wrong in trying to better ourselves with some introspection. If I am hated for speaking the truth – so be it.

As requested by many, I am posting the audio podcast of this skit a bit earlier than usual.
