About

Kathagram is a Malayalam-English literary podcast hosted by Neethu M Eldose — a former journalist, traveler, and storyteller.


Season 3 On now. Solo treks across the Himalayas. Rishikesh, Kugti, Triund, Munsiyari. Stories of shepherds, strangers, snowstorms at 16,600 feet, and the kind of kindness you only meet far from home. New episodes weekly.


Past seasons:

Season 2 — Five essays on the emotions that shape us: depression, ego, solitude, cultural empathy, and love. Featuring guest voices from Baiju Chandran, Rihan Rashid, Annie Vallikappen, Meedhu Miriyam, Dr. Santhosh Kumar, and more.


Season 1 — A journey through Kerala's folk tales. Yakshis, slaves turned deities, betrayed lovers, forgotten ancestors. The stories your grandmother told you, told again.

Each season is a different territory, but the through-line is the host's literary register — bilingual code-switched Malayalam and English, written rather than conversational, in the tradition of essayistic Indian-language storytelling.

Listen, follow, and share your thoughts. Stories are life.
