SURPRISE! We’re releasing next week’s episode early! Don’t deny that you’re extremely thrilled :) Joining us this week is comedian, Alingon Mitra (@alingonmitra)! Based in NYC, Alingon has written for The Daily Show and has appeared on Last Comic Standing, Conan, Colbert…just to name a few. Hopefully Alingon didn’t mistake our excitement for obnoxiousness but we could’ve truly talked to him for hours. Tune in to hear Alingon’s witty yet perceptive thoughts on Comedy as a genre, craft, and career as well as the evolving representation of Desis in media. Alingon and a few other comedians are doing a show on India's Independence Day called American Born Desi Comics (ABDCs) on August 15th at Caroline’s on Broadway (@carolinesonbway) in New York. Check out their trailer on YouTube: https://youtu.be/xEdC9GMfTtE and find more information about their event on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/americanborndesicomics/.
