Today’s episode features the remarkable Negin Farsad!, a brilliant writer and comedian known for her hilarious wit and astute commentary.
You might recognize Negin as the host of the popular podcast "Fake the Nation," where she engages in lively discussions about culture, politics, and everything. With an impressive lineup of guests, including luminaries like Samantha Bee and Margaret Cho, Negin fearlessly tackles complex topics with humor and intelligence.
In this episode, we dive deep into the art of conversation and the power of humor to address societal issues. We explore Negin's unique perspective on diversity in entertainment, her journey in comedy, and the age-old question: Should her kid pursue a comedy career?
