Listen Later

It’s a silky-smooth brand new episode of Go Fact Yourself

Tom Papa is a comedian known for his podcast, radio show, and TV specials. These days, he may be even better known for his other passion: baking bread. He’ll tell us how that started and how his family indulged his new hobby. 

Rosalind Chao is an actor who’s appeared in everything from “Star Trek: The Next Generation", The Joy Luck Club, and Netflix’s “The 3 Body Problem.” Before all that, she was on the most-watched episode of television ever – a little thing called the series finale of “M*A*S*H.””

Areas of Expertise:

Rosalind: Disneyland in the late 1980s, the TV show “The White Lotus” Season 3, and snacks from Trader Joe’s.

Tom: The band The Grateful Dead, Godzilla and the Jersey Shore.

What’s the Difference: Fabric Softener

What’s the difference between silk and satin?

What’s the difference between to cuddle and to snuggle?

Guest Experts:

Patravadi Mejudhon: Actor, playwright, and director, whose first Western role was in Season 3 of “The White Lotus.”

Tom Constanten: Composer, musician, and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer as a member of The Grateful Dead.

Hosts: 

J. Keith van Straaten

Helen Hong
