Having grown up in SoCal, our studio engineer Paul Antonio joins the conversation as we reflect on the legacy and shocking recent death of Kobe Bryant, as well as his daughter GiGi and the 7 other people who tragically perished in a helicopter accident on Sunday morning. We discuss Kobe’s massive influence, the palpable grief in LA, redemption, growth, questionable tweets, and more. Who should probably avoid LA and stay in NYC for awhile?

Ep 93: A Hymen Away with Zahra Noorbakhsh

Facial Recognition Comedy is a group of stand-up comedians who identify as women of Indian, South Asian, or Arab descent. It was founded to dispel the myth that “there can only be one,” as well as to emphasize that “we are not the same person.” In our podcast, FRC founders Fizaa Dosani, Pallavi Gunalan, and Zahra Ali sit down with a new guest each week to probe their unique perspectives, as well as discuss our own history, culture, and challenges as women of color.
