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.Stepping into the spotlight, our cherished guests Rekha Shankar and Michael Shaubach join us, adding their unique sparkle to the ensemble of DesiQuest.  There's a special kind of magic that happens when Rekha, who animates the vibrant Laddoo Auntie, meshes her family heritage with her character's flair, showing us that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Meanwhile, Michael Shaubch, the maestro behind the scenes, orchestrates the ebb and flow of our on-screen drama, sharing pearls of wisdom about his directing journey and the tributes he weaves into his work. Together, we unwrap the layers of our characters and creative process, reveling in the narratives we've lovingly crafted for our audience.Buckle up for a culinary rollercoaster as we enter the kitchen with Laddoo Auntie, the queen of candor and culinary delights, whose throne is challenged during a high-stakes kitty party. It's a tale of gastronomic one-upmanship that I, Sandeep Parikh, as both executive producer and actor, recount with the same passion that fuels our beloved Auntie's quest for cooking supremacy. The emotional whirlwind of competing ladles and clashing spices is a story we tell with fervor, and for those craving the full banquet of behind-the-scenes morsels, we extend an invitation to join our Patreon family.  Join us for a heartfelt tribute to storytelling, where the flavors of DesiQuest are as rich and varied as the characters themselves.Support the showWebsite: https://www.desiquest.com/Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/DesiQuestWanna play D&D with the cast?
