Today, the guys are joined in studio by Casey's good friend, Abhi Yadava. He shares his experience growing up in an Indian family in America. To start Casey talks with Abhi about their childhood including how Abhi felt being the only Indian kid in his school before Josh asks about Abhi's family dynamic. The conversation then shifts to why having a diverse friend group is important before delving into some of Abhi's experiences in India. This sparks a conversation about the cost of living and mental health issues in India as well as the state of their healthcare system. 

Staying on theme, Casey asks what the average guy stresses about in India before getting into what the dating life is like including Indian dating apps. Continuing on the guys talk about familial pressures to date within your own ethnicity as well as the current state of dating in the U.S. Switching gears, the guys bring up some statistics on life in India including economic, dating, and healthcare statistics before asking Abhi if Indian matchmaking is still popular. To conclude, the guys discuss why dating has become so superficial in the U.S. and why Indians are the highest earning immigrant group.
