Folks, Deli Boys gotta be our fav US comedy right now - we've had Asif Ali on the show. We've had Saagar Shaikh on the show. And today, we are psyched to have Lucky Auntie herself, that's right, Poorna Jagannathan, join us for the hour! Now, Poorna's had an incredible acting career - you've seen her in The Night Of, Big Little Lies, Never Have I Ever, Ramy, Better Call Saul and tons of other things - but on today's episode, you'll get to hear from the woman behind the characters. Poorna tells us about meeting her husband in the heady days of early aughts New York, running up the company expense account, sowing her oats in Giuliani's cleaned-up city, transitioning from an ad exec to an actor, her childhood as the daughter of a diplomat, and why maybe it's not as glamorous as it sounds and SO MUCH MORE!
