Welcome back to The Mixed Grill: After Dark Edition — a chaotic, curry-fuelled ride with your hosts Nitin Sharma and Bobby Banerjee. Just two recruitment misfits in a car, unpacking life, the industry, and everyone we love (and occasionally politely dislike) across the recruitment world.

In this episode, we cover everything from weight-loss journeys and personal style glow-ups… to why some consultants seem allergic to authenticity… to deep chats about vulnerability, mental health, and why the recruitment industry quietly holds more shared struggles than anyone admits.

You’ll hear:

• How many people are actually on weight-loss meds — and why no one wants to say it out loud.
• The ridiculousness of personal branding, accidental creepiness, and “dog vs cat energy” personalities in recruitment.
• Why some advisors should chill with the day-rate sermons — and who in the industry is genuinely doing great things.
• The people we really admire, want to spend more time with, or misjudged entirely before meeting.
• A surprisingly emotional dive into depression, burnout, safe spaces, and the power of people who remind you who the f*** you are.
• Ending with life advice: everyone’s in the shit; only the depth varies — so talk to someone.

It’s unfiltered, honest, hilarious, occasionally heartfelt, and absolutely everything the Recruitment Curry Club stands for: community, real talk, and helping each other through the madness.
