The show
Most interviews are about the guest. This one is about what the guest knows.
If someone has spent thirty years inside real estate, oncology, policing or venture capital, there is a body of knowledge in their head that never reaches the rest of us. It stays in the industry, in the jargon, behind the desk. The job of this show is to get it out.
Every episode is built as a teaching hour. The questions assume the viewer knows nothing and wants to know everything. No jargon left unexplained, no CV walkthroughs, no promotion. If a guest uses a term the audience wouldn't know, we stop and unpack it.
Shot in a single studio block in Bengaluru, edited properly, and published on YouTube. Longer segment cuts go up separately, so if you only care about one part of an hour, you can watch just that.
The Untold Ten
Every guest, no exceptions, gets the same ten questions at the end of the episode.
- The best advice you've ever received
- The worst advice you've ever received
- One piece of advice nobody should ever follow
- Your biggest fear in life
- Your most controversial opinion, the one you rarely say out loud
- A risk you didn't take that still bothers you
- Something everyone in your field believes that you think is wrong
- What you'd do differently if money weren't a factor
- Who you envy, and why
- A question you wish people asked you but never do — then you answer it
Who's asking the questions
I'm Abhishek M, twenty, based in Bengaluru. On most of the subjects covered here I start out knowing very little, which turns out to be the useful part.
Why a stock market guy interviews doctors and builders
Markets are just companies, and companies are just people doing a job well or badly. Every hour I spend with a builder, a clinician or a founder teaches me something about how an industry actually makes money — which is the part balance sheets never show you. That's the real reason this show exists.
Away from the camera I'm NISM-certified and work on Indian equity markets. If you want to talk about that side of things, write to me directly.
Nothing on this site is investment advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any security. Markets carry risk, including loss of capital.
