The Art of Making What Doesn't Exist… Exist with Pooja Tripathi
In this episode of Brown Enough, comedian Pooja Tripathi joins usfor a deep (and hilarious) dive into creativity, art, humor, coffee culture, and all things New York. Her BK Coffee Shop videos have racked up millions of views and a feature in The New York Times. Pooja has mastered the fine line between satire and reality—especially with her viral collaborations that “don’t exist but sort of do.” We unpack the magic of making something from nothing, the absurdity of the internet, and why everyone should probably go buy one of collabs. Tune in for laughs, insights, and a little creative mischief.
