Alex is joined by guest cohost Jeff Brumfield (@senseijefe26) to help interview comedian and neuroscience PhD student Diya Basrai (@diyabasrai). Together they learn how Diya narrowly avoided becoming a film major, share stories of bombing on stage in front of colleagues, discuss cringe scientists on TikTok, and learn Diya’s strategy for not being addicted to your phone. Diya reveals his morning routine and Alex can’t decide if she finds it disturbing or inspiring.
