Hosted by Negin Farsad, everyone's favorite Iranian American Muslim Comedian Podcast Host with Black Hair and Red Glasses, Fake the Nation is a comedy show that isn't afraid to talk about news, culture, and humanity’s weirdness. Every week Negin is joined by her funniest, smartest, and most politically astute friends. People like Samantha Bee, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Paula Poundstone, Margaret Cho, Larry Wilmore and others. They’ll make you laugh, think, and deliver a gut punch to the country we all love, America. It's like a really fun dinner party where nothing is off limits but you don’t have to pretend to like salad.
No topics are off limits on this week's episode! The Trump campaign, the kerfuffle at NBC, the yapping trend on TikTok, the decline in vanilla chocolate chip ice cream, and we'll ask if having children ruins women's careers - we're covering it all. To help break all of this down, we're joined by journalist, Jessica Bennett, and comedian, Pete Dominick!
