Dee Talkss
A bilingual podcast from India that alternates between long-form interviews with Kannada creators and solo-narrated Indian true crime stories.
A hybrid Kannada-English podcast that switches between two distinct formats. Many episodes are deep-dive interviews with regional influencers and digital creators, focusing on their professional and personal lives. Interspersed with these are solo-narrated episodes where the host recounts infamous Indian true crime stories and other biographical accounts in Kannada.
“The show's unique blend of contemporary influencer interviews and dark, historical true-crime storytelling sets it apart from typical single-format podcasts. The bilingual nature of the interviews (Kannada/English) makes it accessible while retaining a strong regional identity.”
Who hosts this show
Hosted by Deesha Umesh, a doctor-turned-content creator from Bengaluru, Dee Talkss is a dual-format podcast. One side of the show features casual, long-form interviews in a mix of Kannada and English with regional influencers, exploring their careers and personal journeys. The other format is a Kannada-language true crime series where Umesh narrates the stories of infamous Indian cases. The podcast was started in 2023 to fill a gap in regional Kannada learning and knowledge-based content.

What you'll be asked on this show
Deesha Umesh begins interviews with a warm, personal, and often highly complimentary introduction. A common opening move, especially with guests who have faced public scrutiny, is to ask them what the audience most misunderstands about them. She builds a casual, friendly rapport by using a mix of Kannada and English and sharing her own experiences. Umesh directly but gently probes past controversies, framing the questions as an opportunity for the guest to share their perspective. Her conversations cover origins, creative process, and personal struggles, often concluding with lighter, game-like segments such as rapid-fire questions or the 'Influencer Courtroom'.
The show has two modes: conversational interviews and scripted solo narration. Interviews are casual, friendly, and bilingual (Kannada/English), with the host building a warm rapport. The true crime episodes are more formal, scripted, and delivered entirely in Kannada, focusing on narrative storytelling.
