December is nearly over, and 2025 is just around the corner, so we’re bringing you a very special episode where Himal’s editor Roman Gautam and podcast hosts Nayantara Narayanan and Shwetha Srikanthan reflect on what has been an incredible year here at Himal Southasian

In 2024, we launched a new website, a revamped Himal’s Patron programme, brought you more ambitious stories and great Southasian journalism, improved and expanded our newsletters, and launched two new podcasts.

We’ve also doubled our output of podcasts: from publishing an episode every two weeks, we’re now releasing a new episode every single week. Now you get even more of the State of Southasia, where Southasia’s top minds unpack essential news and events, and the Southasia Review of Books, the place for all things literary in the region.

So here’s a roundup of what we’ve been able to pull off this year and what’s in store for Himal in 2025.

This episode is now available on Spotify, Youtube and Apple Podcasts
