In this episode, Saishaa and actress Shelly Bhalla (Jane the Virgin, American Crime Story, General Hospital) discuss their experiences growing up South Asian, what it's like being a South Asian actress in the American film + entertainment industry,  and Shelly tells her incredible story of becoming an actress. Of course, they also discuss the critically-acclaimed Golden Globe winner rom-com series, Jane the Virgin, and answer a very important question: are you on Team Michael or Team Rafael? *There are some spoilers in this episode. However, I believe all should listen to this episode, regardless of whether you have watched Jane the Virgin or not!* :)
