This week's guest is the very funny, very inspiring Diana Hong! (@wellhongd). 


We talked about her long path from a career as an aspiring professional golfer to struggles with mental health and eventually finding her career in standup comedy. This was a long one and we went on a deep dive. (CW: discussions of suicide, ~26:00-28:00)


The comic of the week is Aida Rodriquez! We watched her episode of "Tiffany Haddish Presents: They Ready" on Netflix. 


Continue to donate to Black Lives Matter and bail funds in your city. Justice is out the window and it's a weird time to talk about comedy but remember that comedy is always political.
