Indus Voices Podcast - Invidious

Indus Voices Podcast

Indus Voices Podcast is a weekly series exploring Pakistan and South Asia through conversations that flow like the river it's named after. Hosted by Usman Ahmed, the podcast features guest interviews and solo reflections on politics, history, art, identity, resistance, decolonization, and cultural memory.

Taking a progressive and liberal view of Pakistan, India, and the South Asian diasporas, Indus Voices brings together Hindi/Urdu and English voices from across borders, generations, and walks of life. Whether unpacking colonial legacies, reviving erased histories, or imagining new futures, this podcast is a space for rational inquiry, poetic thought, and political clarity.

Join us weekly for new episodes that invites reflection, connection, and dialogue. Comments are always welcome :)
