For my last interview of the year, I stand-up with my guest, Nimesh Patel, and talk all things comedy. Nimesh is the first Indian-American to write for SNL, where he was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Writing for his work.

We talk about growing up brown in New Jersey, how he actually did try the whole doctor route, what it was like seeing Chris Rock laugh at his jokes, and why Hasan Minhaj was sleeping on his dirty couch.

Nimesh talks about his passion for comedy and writing, how SNL was the Harvard for a comedic education, how he got away with working in finance while pursuing his real passion, and who he thinks are the funniest people in his life.

He is currently a staff writer for the 2nd season of 'A Little Late with Lilly Singh' and has launched a new adult animation series called Zooidiots. This one made me laugh. The series and the interview.
