    Our leaders say one thing in podcasts/interviews like this, and then do completely opposite once in power
  • @minhal1998
    I was telling my wife yesterday if Shahzad does not ask Bilawal about Jam Sadiq and the murder of Nazim Jokhio I am going to be so disappointed. However, yet again, you've shown you're the man Shahzad!
  • @maxCarnag3
    Salam, good back and forth. Bilawal is quite good at handling tough questions. Credit to Shehzad for not shying away from difficult questions. Congratulations on the milestone for TPE Shehzad. Keep up the good work. JazakAllah kher.
  • As an Indian, I shall not comment on the guest's answers. However, hats off to Shehzad. Fiery, unyielding, unapologetic and bold questions. Respect your journalistic integrity.
  • @ChayePhilosophy
    Seeing you grow these past few years has been incredible! What a milestone, man!
  • @biyarehman6560
    Shahzad knows exactly how to question them about sensitive issues without letting them slip away with their unsatisfactory answers. Shahzad runs the best podcast channel in Pakistan till date. ❤️
  • @aniyahr
    Our people call him "Pappu of Pakistan" alluding that he's a dynast similar to our bird-brain Rahul Gandhi. But I've to admit, this guy is anything but! Once you get over the funny accent, this guy is articulate and quite grounded. Might even be some kind of a glimmer hope for the beleaguered country... he just have to be less hawkish about the neighbour and do something no one else has done, make a sincere and honest effort to be friends with my country. Good interview Shahzad!
  • @miranastana5035
    Mr. Bhutto being irritated by those hard questions shows you didn't shy away from confronting him upfront. This is real journalism. Hats off to you, Shahzad bhai❤
  • @imjaveediqbal
    nice to see politician in podcast answering real questions
  • @AS-sf7hr
    Bilawal is extremely intelligent and has the personality of a statesman. He is going to be the turning point in our political journey, hope and pray he is guided well from within his own self and is supported by Allah. Very good interview Shehzad, we like your style of interviewing 👍🌟
  • @ubaidkhan4489
    Hats off! Probably the best conversation ever in recent times with a mainstream politician. Shahzad being Shahzad, Bilawal conquering the podcast with his blunt yet respectful replies. This should be normalised, no hate no judgements. Political differences should always be set aside. Well done Bilawal. Pakistan Zindabad❤
  • @yaseenbhutto9545
    instead of insulting and abusing others, this man speaks on the core issues of country. well done Bilwal. though i have so many disagreements to PPP policies but you sounds a wave of hope.
  • @khipksy1888
    20 seconds in.. had the biggest laugh.. "the only party against feudalism is Peoples Party" Lmao😂😂😅😅😂😂
  • @hammadirshad5596
    Yar bilawal ko soun k maza ajata hai ❤️ No blame game no shouting no foul language, just Pakistan ko jorne ki batein karrha hai. Such a sane voice
  • @Pyare145
    Not a PPP fan but bilawal seems like a leader that can take pakistan forward. Great work by TPE team🎉
  • @irfanfaiza7079
    I just love his dheema demeanor- it’s soothing to the nerves that a politician is NOT shouting and using awful language
  • @80saintsinner

  • @aadizahoor1
    What a conversation, triple likes. It was like the Waseem Akram v/s Sachin Tendulkar.. Bilawal vision literally inspiring. vote 100% for Bilawal after listening to this
  • @enn6341
    Respect for BBZ! Talking about collective efforts, politics of reconciliation, using calculated language and no foul words, talking about climate crisis and economic crisis. It was a fresh change! Well done Shehzad for this high profile yet grilling podcast.
