Scholar Gerard Toffins appreciation of Maha Jodi, and review of Newar Bahadur, Bahun Bahadur. ...the comedians give a lot of room to agency, to the personal dimension and to a self-critical vision, which is generally totally absent from scholarly work. The faculty of self-mockery is an often underestimated dimension of social life and is not sufficiently taken into account by sociologists, anthropologists and the like. ...To seize upon pubic evils, to ridicule them and to entertain people in this manner is no doubt a superior form of humour. Satire, let us not forget, is the weapon of the powerless against the powerful.
