Is America the Real Villain or the Real Hero? From Saddam to Maduro — Same Story, New Era?

Welcome back to another power-packed, no-filter episode of the Kaka Balli Punjabi Podcast, where we don’t chase trends — we create conversations that trends are built on. In this episode, I sit down with Ajaydeep Singh Dhaliwal for a deep, honest, and thought-provoking discussion covering life, health, relationships, geopolitics, podcasting, and the modern Punjabi NRI mindset.

This episode is especially for NRIs, young professionals, married couples, solo migrants, creators, and anyone trying to understand where the world is heading after 2025. From mental health and money traps to America’s global power and nuclear politics, this conversation touches everything that people are thinking but not saying out loud.
