Rohan Joshi : Comedian
Update: 2021-07-16
Description
Rohan Joshi, aka mojorojo, is one of India's most recognizable faces in the alternative culture space. He is best known for being a stand-up comic who co-founded the popular collective AIB. Having followed his work (and Instagram) for years, I've found him to be thoughtful, well-read and empathetic, and his interests wide-ranging. He made for an ideal guest for this show. I also owe the idea of this show to him - as will be revealed in the episode. And yes, we also discuss
cats.
In
this episode, Rohan and I discuss:
Rohan's experiences as a comedian, teacher and journalism student
Having a "finite well of energy" and maximising it
Starting the day on a great note, with a simple hack
The importance of structure in life
Dealing with the fame that came with the astronomical rise of AIB
Allowing yourself the luxury of letting your mind wander
Realistic goals and enjoying the ride
Several, several recommendations.
