  Sangeeta : MyStoryGenie Bengali...

  The story centers on the maleficence of overt and covert political interference, a plague that ravages the Indian educational institutions systematically. One such college ruffian with noxious political patronage enjoyed considerable clout in subjects concerning the functioning of the students union and day-to-day administrative dispensation. The de-facto political protégée exercised his influence to secure the college admission of a girl named Sangeeta at the middle of an ongoing academic session – an almost impossible feat to achieve, irrespective of merit; such was the extent of the systematic rot. The girl was academically bright and displayed feminine charm – a potent combination to induce desire among members of the opposite sex. Overconfidence and inflated ego prompted this college lout to pop the question to this girl, almost as a return favor for the service rendered in matters related to securing college admission. But much to his dismay, he was rebuffed in a much sarcastic and contemptuous manner. 
  Time flew, and the two met again twenty years later under a very different circumstance, as the past caught up with the present in a whirlpool of human emotion. 
  Tune in to this scathing narrative from the master storyteller and a literary legend of Bengal – Bani Basu in this “My StoryGenie” Bengali audiobooks presentation.

  Steve Dangle’s incredible odyssey, from self-starting Leafs lover to sports-media star
  		 
  How do you turn ranting about hockey into a career? Steve “Dangle” Glynn is a YouTuber, podcaster, and sports personality from Toronto, who managed to turn a 16-second online rant about the Maple Leafs into a career in sports media. From video blogging in his parents’ house at 19 to yelling on televisions across Canada at 28, Dangle has been involved with some of the most important sports companies in the country. 
  		 
  In between tales of Steve’s adventures, both online and off, This Team Is Ruining My Life is also a kind of how-to (or how-not-to) guide: in an ever-evolving media landscape, sometimes you have to get creative to find the job you want. This is Steve Dangle and his accidentally on purpose journey through sports media so far.
