A Moment of Silence for Secret Relationships

Welcome back to another episode of Moment of Silence. You already know why you clicked, so let’s not pretend. We’re diving headfirst into this week’s main character energy topic: taboo relationships. From porn and taboos being way too closely related, to the icks all thanks to the internet trends. Splitsvilla obsession, and how that chaos spilled straight into Lollapalooza. We’re further unpacking age gaps, financial gaps, and the very real fitness gap (we just invented), Inter-caste, queer, lavender relationships — if it makes society uncomfortable, it made it to this episode.

And let’s be honest — is content creation secretly one of the most classist industries out there? We also switch gears into solving your problems — where the real villains are usually your uncle, your cousin, and sometimes, your own mother. We also introduce the 7-7-7 rule to keep romance alive and our very real takes on celebs still living in the closet. Oh, and we have a hard list of people you should never date — even if they’re the last option on Earth. Not done yet.

We also talked about Budget 2026 (yes, against our will), gave a round of applause to the smartest women in Meerut & more. If you’re still here, help us hit 100k and become part of the chaos.
