In his first 45 minute special, Azeem uses quirky, observational humour and semi-sharpened wit to give his views on topics encompassing sports, Bollywood, religion, politics, and travel, in addition to personal anecdotes that have taught him that life is a lot more tolerable if you take everything with a pinch of salt.
