Kinkini – tiny trinkets that tinkle. Cheppu – a treasure chest of keepsakes. Together, Kinkini Cheppu is a podcast that brings Kerala alive through folklore, myths, rituals, traditions, proverbs, cultural quirks, and personal stories—wrapped in nostalgia, humor, in a blend of vernacular Malayalam and English.For many of us, Kerala exists in glimpses - summer vacations, festive gatherings, the occasional craving for pazham pori, puttu-kadala or kerala porotta. But when we try to dig deeper, the stories that hold Kerala together often slip away in rich, literary Malayalam, just out of reach.This podcast is for those who want to reconnect with Kerala, not through textbooks, but through stories that feel like home. Whether you’re a city-bred Malayalee, a non-resident missing home, or just curious about Kerala’s rich cultural tapestry, Kinkini Cheppu is your bridge.Plug in your earphones, grab a cup of chaya, and let’s take a trip home every fortnight - one story at a time. And if a story tugs at your heart, or remind you of anything or anybody, write to me at [email protected] - your story might just find its way into an episode!This season is incubated at Podcasting Bootcamp - Cohort 2 by Your Story Bag.
