About this listen

The Side Quest by Laughing Lakhe is a podcast about everything that lives in between.

Between work and life.
Between ambition and burnout.
Between “I’ve got this” and “what am I even doing?”

We work full time in tech and build Laughing Lakhe on the side, which means most days are a mix of Zoom calls, big ideas, mild chaos and a lot of thinking out loud.

This isn’t a podcast about having answers.
It’s about having conversations.

The kind that start casually and end somewhere unexpected.
The thoughts that sneak in after work.
The questions you don’t Google because you’re not even sure how to phrase them yet.

No advice.
No pretending.
Just honest conversations as we figure things out, one side quest at a time.

Because the main storyline is overrated anyway.

  • Co-owing and running a creative business as a couple
    Jan 28 2026

    What happens when your partner is also your business partner?

    In this episode of The Side Quest by Laughing Lakhe, we talk honestly about what it is really like to co-own and run a creative business as a couple.

    From dividing roles and making decisions, to navigating disagreements, money chats, and the very real challenge of switching work mode off at home. We share what has worked, what has absolutely not, and the lessons we are still learning along the way.

    This is not a glossy “power couple” story. It is a behind-the-scenes look at trust, communication, creative tension, and building something meaningful together without losing your relationship or your sanity.

    If you are building with your partner, thinking about it, or simply curious how couples survive mixing love and spreadsheets, this one is for you.
