It's the most corrupt country I've ever been to. The only thing they care about is some bullshit superstitions. They will not fucking budge on superstition and religion. They will stick to that like it's fucking insanity.

Boyle takes us on a rollercoaster ride through his travels in India, blending humor with raw observations about the country's healthcare system, corruption, and deeply rooted superstitions.
He doesn't shy away from sharing his more hair-raising moments either, like his encounter with a lion without any form of protection. It's a mix of funny and frightening that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Boyle's storytelling is vivid and engaging, painting a picture of India's vibrant yet chaotic atmosphere during the pandemic.
