Pallavi Gunalan Talks Journey Into Comedy, Perception vs. Reality, and Civic Engagement

Katherine catches up with stand-up comedian, writer, and producer Pallavi Gunalan to talk about her leap of faith towards comedy. Originally studying to become a biomedical engineer, Pallavi got her first exposure into comedy through improv and quickly became obsessed with all of it. They talk about the parasocial relationship between a performer and its fan, typical beauty standards, and marrying comedy and politics with her show, City Counsel.
