"This Is What Influencers Like Raj Shamani Charge Their Guests..." | Gen Z | Barkha Dutt

Описание: #podcast #socialmedia #influencers


What happens when one of India’s most outspoken young voices sits down with Barkha Dutt?

This explosive interview with Rishabh Shah — Founder of IIMUN & Author of Young, Wired & Not Woke — dives deep into the psyche of Gen Z and Gen Alpha, the influencer economy, political propaganda, identity, and the rising crisis of authenticity.

Rishabh’s new book, Young, Wired & Not Woke: How the Youth of Today are Redefining Success, Love and Self, is funny, fearless, and unfiltered — and this interview is exactly the same.

In this conversation, Rishabh breaks down:

How influencers are being used by politicians to push propaganda;
How paid interviews are disguised as “normal conversations” — with rate cards that’ll shock you;
Why “everyone is an influencer” is the biggest myth of this generation;
Why Gen Z must question religion, politics, labels, and algorithm-driven thinking;
How India’s youth are escaping echo chambers and rewriting what success, love, and identity mean;
Why nothing is Left in the Right and nothing is Right in the Left;
How hustle culture, mental health, and social media addictions are shaping a restless generation, and more.

With trademark sarcasm and brutal honesty, Rishabh challenges the narratives young Indians are fed — by society, by the internet, and by power structures that understand the influencer game better than anyone else.

If you’re young, online, confused, wired, or just trying to make sense of the world — this conversation is for you.

Get ready to rethink the algorithm, the influencer economy, and yourself.
