Cassidy sits down with comedian Diya Basrai (@diyabasrai on Instagram, @diyacomedy on X) to discuss his writing process and discovers the value of writing on a typewriter, the exercise of being spontaneous (even if it means saying the wrong thing), and the glory of bombing—and how to do it productively! Today's episode was edited by John O'Neill, theme music for the podcast was provided by Michael Salles Holtzman, and recording was done with the help of Deanna Ortiz at the beautiful Lincoln Lodge Theater in Chicago, Illinois.
