Writer and comedian Broti Gupta joins us this week for an odyssey into chronic pain - what?! Now, obviously you know Broti from her online comedy and writing in McSweeney's and The New Yorker or perhaps you know her from her work with comedy partner Dylan Gelula or maybe you know her as a writer for Speechless or The Simpsons? Well, no matter how well you know her, on today's episode you're gonna get to KNOW her! We talk about getting diagnosed with a chronic disease in her early 20s and how that set the tenor for life, getting her first writing job, meeting her husband in the writers room and like a billion other things! Broti's absolutely delightful, and there are LAFFS APLENTY! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions!
