Recently, Sushant’s channel has been my everyday motivation for thesis writing. Listening to the stories, ideas, and passion of these seminal individuals gives me a distinct energy, power, and purpose to make my routine life special. I thank Sushant everyday for creating a comfort space for these voices to surface for ordinary people like us. Mainstream is not mainstream any more- this is what I feel after listening to your podcasts. You are making an impact and I believe that’s what fulfils, being a human.

तपाँईले वहाँलाई बोलाउनु भयो। कार्यक्रममा वहाँको एक्सपेरिएन्स, राम्रा राम्रा ज्ञानमूलक कुरा इत्यादि सुनाउनु भयो, एकदम ठिक छ।

अर्को एकजना व्यापार विशेषज्ञ पनि बोलाउनु भयो। वहाँसगको कार्यक्रममा पनि धेरै कुरा जान्न पाइयो।

दुई विज्ञहरूको विचारमा समानता थिएन, ठिक छ, तर जब वहाँले डा सुर्यराज आचार्यको व्यङ्ग्य गर्नुभयो, तपाँई पनि खित्का छाडेर सँगसँगै हाँसीदिनु भयो।

त्यसपछि डा युवराज सङ्ग्रौला र प्राध्यापक मोहन खनाल तपाँईको कार्यक्रममा जानु उचित थिएन जस्तो लाग्यो।

[samitgurung]

Dr. Surya Raj sir has been tremendously studying about everything related to development of nation since long period of time. His tweets are also so related to political as well as development of our nation. I reckon, he is the first person who had proposed about the current tunnel transportation. I wish you all the very best for your political career sir. And of course the podcast is also doing awesome work.. keep it up sushant daju. Lots of love.

[rapidresponse]

podcast sunda sushant ko body herera ne insipiration milxa, guest ko knowledge and inspiration tw xadai x✌️

[nabinadhikari]

Thank you sushant for bringing surya sir and i loved your intellect as well as concern of critical thinking. With these kind of podcast and converstion i think we are moving towards great future. Me as a civil engineering student, I learned value of critical thinking during covid times and i am hopeful i will be able to do someting for society and my civil engineering profession in comming days.

[udiptsinghchhetry]

Thank you Surya Sir for all information and also thank you Sushant Bro bringing him to the show. It's very concerned that we are way behind in infrastructure development. It's sad. Leaders without visions leading in politics and they are worried about their votes only.

[Masre]

Sushant is so intellectual person . I’m always admire him really great podcast presenter with brilliant mind

Sushant ji ko understanding and bahas garna sakne chyamata tarif yogya xa, i didnt know who he was prior to this podcast but now i count him in a very high regard. Keep it up dai.

[saroja]

Amazing interview, asking right questions and letting the expert explain.

A small feedback would be, making multiple part would have been better considering attention span of viewers: Metro in one video, Airport in 2nd video, foreign aid in 4th, and so on.

[padmeshshakya]

Very informative, great personality! Best wishes brother.

[paulpaudel]

Amazing episode! This is my first time listening and you've really handled it well, with minimal interruptions for the expert, succinct questions relevant to people *our* age and an open-minded learning attitude. Plus, as a development hobbyist, I have a lot of respect for Dr Acharya's holistic developmental ideas.

Good luck with the growth Sushant! 👍🏼 May the force be with you!🙏
