I LIKE THAT IT HAS ALL THE TOPICS OF REAL WORLD AND THIS AMAZING PANEL OF 4 HAS ALWAYS BEEN MY FAVOURITE FROM THE DAY 1.

MY FAVOURITE PODCAST.

I have been listening to TISS even before it was called TISS and was called SNG Big Question before they split up. I dont know if it's the best podcast or not, cause its unlike any podcast even exists. They break every rule of running a podcast, they dont have script, they dont have any preparation, they are sometimes not regular, they forget to their intros and ask listeners to subscribe and share, and heck even after doing 100+ episodes, no sponsors yet. They still manage to do it and make me laugh so much. They are like my friends whom I dont know personally yet they are so close to me. Honestly I was never a fan of their individual work but when they come together they create this magic which is so unique and wonderful. I have been listening to them since 2018 and I think since then a part of my personality has changed and heavily influenced by them. I find it hard to recommend it to people cause its like a good wine, which requires listeners to get used-to in order to like it. Because on the face of it, it seems like a usual podcast run by another bunch of standup comics in India but its more than that. I think this is the most honest and raw witty podcast you will ever find anywhere.

Comedy podcast which is hard to recommend 😅
