Aparna Nancherla is a writer, stand-up comedian, and actor. Her new book is Unreliable Narrator: Me, Myself and Impostor Syndrome. You can hear Aparna as the voice of Moon on Fox's The Great North, or have heard her as the voice of Hollyhock on Bojack Horseman. She's also appeared on The Drop, Lopez vs. Lopez, and Corporate. She's written for Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell and Late Night with Seth Meyers, as well as Mythic Quest on Apple+.


In this episode we talk about:

  • How impostor syndrome relates to anxiety and depression
  • Procrastination and how she sometimes feels it sets her up to do good work, even though she hates it
  • The difference between standup and therapy in her life
  • How she feels about the word "no"
  • The sometime-burden of representing South Asians in entertainment
  • What it feels like to finally put this book out into the world
