Off Script is a podcast for the conversations we're often too quick to skip past.

Hosted by Naina Madan and Elizabeth Kuiper, each episode slows down to sit with the questions that matter — about identity, society, work, mental health, and the world we're all navigating together. With curiosity, care, and a genuine openness to different perspectives, Naina and Elizabeth create space for guests to speak honestly — beyond the headlines, the polished answers, and the expected narratives.

Because the most important conversations rarely happen on script.

  • From Albania to the Brussels Parliament.

    From Albania to the Brussels Parliament.
    Oct 1 2026

    Picture an eight-year-old girl landing in Brussels from Albania, not speaking the language, with no seat at any table in sight. Now picture that same girl walking into the Brussels Parliament as an elected official.

    In this episode of Off Script, hosts Naina Madan and Elizabeth Kuiper sit down with Kristela Bytyçi, Brussels Regional Deputy elected in June 2024. From a childhood shaped by migration to nearly a decade inside the European Commission, her path to public life is anything but ordinary.

    The conversation covers identity and belonging, what pushed her from the outside of politics to the inside, the backlash women in politics still face, AI and who it leaves behind, and how you stay genuinely good in a system that can wear you down.

    Honest, warm, and free of the usual political spin.

    From Google, to a global exit, to building Belgium's next founders.

    We asked him where AI takes us next, and challenged him on topics he equally pushed back on.

    Coming soon to Off Script.
