THANK YOU to our episode sponsor, The Get Brown! @thegetbrownsketchcomedytea9990
In this sixth episode of the South Asian mythology inspired TTRPG actual play DesiQuest, starring our DM (Jasmine Bhullar), Sitara (Anjali Bhimani), Laddoo Auntie (Rekha Shankar), Murkha (Omar Najam), and Ash (Sandeep Parikh), we follow our adventurers as they travel with their new colleague Nuri (Erika Ishii) via spider to the town of Silgar at the base of Rak Tibba.
Danger escalates as SOMEONE gets recognized by fans (hint: it’s NOT Vollywood star Sitara), Laddoo Auntie meets an automaton version of herself, and congratulations, a baby is attacked. Can our adventurers save said baby unscathed?! Who will turn into a tiny and emotionally toxic snake?! Watch now to find out~

The Tea Kettle - DesiQuest After Show Podcast - Episode 5 with Erika Ishii & Noxweiler Berf SNEAK PEAK

When the kettle whistles and the tea is ready, it's time for the DesiQuest after-show—and what a show it is! Omar Najam and I, Sandeep Parikh, are all cozied up inside the teapot, steaming with excitement. After every episode of DesiQuest is launched, we'll release another episode of the Tea Kettle with me and Omar and a very special guest, or guest from either behind or in front of the camera.
As we cracked open the doors after Episode 5, it was nothing short of a party where Erika Ishii and Noxweiler Berf, the creative forces behind our show's beloved Nuri and its exquisitely crafted miniatures, joined us at the mic. Their stories of meticulous brushstrokes and imaginative design had us riveted, offering a rare peek into the artistry that fuels DesiQuest. Between hearty laughs, we teased the relaunch of the ABCD podcast, a melting pot of culture and comedy that promises to tickle your funny bone and tug at your heartstrings.
Then, we wandered down the cobblestone paths of nostalgia to the halls of Fonco (Studios), a place stitched with the threads of our past. It was here, among the echoes of weddings and the clinking of glasses from celebrations past, that we found our way back to the warm embrace of familiarity. For those who've ever yearned to revisit the haunts of their memories, this chapter is a heartfelt homage. And for the insatiably curious, our Patreon is brimming with more anecdotes and secrets and the rest of this conversation continues, just a click and a pledge away.

Episode Description:
When the kettle whistles and the tea is ready, it's time for the DesiQuest after-show—and what a show it is! Omar Najam and I, Sandeep Parikh, are all cozied up inside the teapot, steaming with excitement. After every episode of DesiQuest is launched, we'll release another episode of the Tea Kettle with me and Omar and a very special guest, or guest from either behind or in front of the camera.
We're thrilled to share a candid chat about the unexpected crossroads of our schedules and the whimsical thought of a fundraiser to ensure our whole team can join in the fun. This episode isn't just about our shenanigans; we're joined by two exceptional talents: VoodooVal, the wizard of digital art, and Rekha Shankar, a wordsmith whose narratives captivate. Rekha teases us with tales from her latest project, 'Smarty Pants', while Val's artistic genius not only amplifies our show's aesthetic but also paints our Desi heritage in strokes of vibrant color.
Our conversation meanders through a series of appreciative toasts to the creative muses that are Val and Rekha, whose contributions are as indispensable as they are inspirational. I share a sneak peek into ABCD, the podcast that dissects American-born Desi experiences with the same vigor we tackle a plate of mom's samosas—spiced, satisfying, and leaving you hungry for more. As Omar and I recap the nail-biting, edge-of-your-seat combat from our latest episode, we acknowledge it's the support from our Patreon family that enables these moments to come alive. So, whether you're here for the dark fantasy, the cultural camaraderie, or the pure joy of our collective journey, this episode is a heartfelt 'thank you' wrapped in an invitation to continue this wild ride with us.
