I Am Speaking is a podcast focused on the lives of “othered” Americans. The goal of this podcast is to hear, share, and amplify the voices of Americans--both citizens and noncitizens-who have felt like outsiders in their homes. Hosted by first-generation Indian-American sisters, I Am Speaking highlights the unique experiences of people who feel or have been marginalized by the current US cultural hegemony in their communities.

If you’ve ever been curious about the inner workings of the Baxi Sisters, welcome to at least their brother’s side of the story.
Chirayu Baxi is Shailushi and Kosha’s youngest sibling and only brother. Growing up in small-town central IL, one of the only Indian or Brown families around, with 3 independent, opinionated strong older sisters…that will definitely influence and help mold a young man as he grows.
Chirayu joins us to discuss his experience of gender roles, how he explored what gender norms mean through high school and college, and how toxic masculinity truly impacts everyone. As a physician, he sees it daily.
Shailushi and Kosha loved this conversation. As much as you know someone, you don’t really know them. There’s always something new to learn. Enjoy this episode with the Baxi Brother who brings up the caboose of our family (and only sometimes is the butt of our jokes!)
