What better ways to start to the winter months than to nestle up with a podcast or two? Perhaps you could feel inspired by some of the amazing women hosting shows. There will be plenty of indoor hours in the day to try them out!
Hormonal
Hormonal is a brand new, weekly podcast, hosted by author Rhea Ramjohn and produced by
female health app, Clue. The first season aims to solve the mystery of hormones, shedding light on the different ways in which they impact our lives.
Encyclopedia Womannica
Encyclopedia Womannica is a relatively new offering that certainly packs a punch. Host Liz Kaplan was inspired to do this while musing on her school history lessons, which she remembered as not really containing women. It aims to resolve that issue by teaching listeners about important women who have made an impact on the world — but have not necessarily been recognised for it.
The Broad Experience
This podcast runs in 20-minute episodes which tackle some of the toughest issues facing working women today. Just tune in to Ashley Milne-Tyte, reporter and teacher. Topics include being a professional woman without kids, the difficulty of delegating colleagues, and even sexual harassment.
Afford Anything
Afford Anything is a podcast that offers up an interesting concept: you can afford anything, but not everything. It’s run by Paula Pant as an extension to her book. Escape, and the career she’s built on advising other people on how to make the most of their time, energy and money.

CHAITANYA Tamhane’s The Disciple (produced by Netflix) could just as well have been titled “discipline”. This is the quality that the hero named Sharad (Aditya Modak) has to organize his life around, and we witness both his patience and frustrations as he comes to t
erms with the possibility that he might never find a proper position in the world he loves. Is he good enough, as a singer or as a student? It is a question unanswered in the film.
It is a story about the relationship between art and artists. It shows us the confusion Sharad, an Indian classical music fan, is faced with after years of pursuit of music dream. Even though he is anxious about his poverty and ordinariness, he continues to study day after day. He shows great respect for his teacher, a distinguished old musician, treating his teacher like his father. However, when he finds out his teacher is not as respectable as he thought, he begins to question whether it is worth his efforts or not.
Slow-paced as this Marathi film may seem, it becomes a hypnotic experience as you become invested in the central character and his journey. The narrative moves around in time, giving us glimpses of Sharad’s poor childhood and the present day, where he tries to draw help from audio recordings of talks by the late teacher named Maai (voiced by Sumitra Bhave). Tamhane’s long takes and almost-unchanging shots—characteristic of his earlier feature Court—work wonderfully for this subject matter. In the musical performances,
the camera sometimes moves only very slightly forward, as if mindful of disturbing the performers’ space.
The Disciple is also driven by its attention to detail and its many little vignettes—the mildly regretted look on Sharad’s face when his teacher tells him, mid-performance and in front of a seated audience, “No, you aren’t listening”, or the slow upgrade to hostility when the mother of one of his students asks that her boy should be allowed to take time off to perform with a “rock” band.
4. Why can the film also be titled “discipline”?
A. The film questions the significance of discipline.
B. The film talks about the role that discipline plays in music.
tablet press punch and dieC. The hero is a self-disciplined person and has experienced a lot.
D. The hero doubts whether discipline can lead to his dream.
5. What does the underlined word “hypnotic” mean in the third paragraph?
A. Dull. B. Fascinating. C. Tough. D. Heart-breaking.
6. What has Sharad NOT experienced in the story?
A. The deep love for classical music.
B. The depression of not realizing his dream.
C. The poverty in his childhood.
D. The praise from his teacher.
7. In which section of a newspaper can the text appear?
A. Education. B. Entertainment. C. Science. D. Lifestyle.
