Hoodo Hersi

The algorithm is almost always piping dumb shit into our feeds, but EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE we get some fun clips that lead us to discover someone new to us. So we must thank the algorithm for introducing us to the wonderful Hoodo Hersi! Hoodo is a New York-based stand-up and writer (she writes on Ramy's Amazon cartoon #1 Happy Family USA) and host of the YouTube show That's So Haram!. And on today's show, we go deep into her therapeutic journey, which started when she worked for Canada's Most Racist School. We talk about how she dealt with that - including an absolutely insane teaching assistant - as well as with family issues, and Hoodo gives us her tips for online dating with the goal of finding a partner. AND SO MUCH MORE! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions! If you'd like to ask your own advice questions, call 323-524-7839 and leave a VM or just DM us on IG or Twitter!

We're in culture critic and Vulture writer Sean Malin's new book The Podcast Pantheon: 101 Podcasts That Changed How We Listen!
