SEASON ONE FINALE! In this ep, Lynn and Christie chat with Mikel Albagdadi about his upbringing in Louisiana to Iraqi & Jordanian-Syrian parents; his veterinarian dad who wouldn't let them get pets; crawdad boils & Southern culture; and his transition from finance to comedy, writing, and acting.
This episode gets silly. Hey, remember that time Disney tried to trademark "Día De Los Muertos"?
Stay tuned for more guests & laughs in SEASON TWO!
