Aparna Nancherla (Live @ SXSW)

Aparna Nancherla is a self-described “silly-billy” with her dry sense of humour mixed with hints of the existential, absurd and whimsy.

She’s the author of Unreliable Narrator: Me, Myself and Impostor Syndrome, and the voice behind Hollyhock on Bojack Horseman. Aparna has also appeared in A Simple Favor and Bob’s Burgers and written for Late Night with Seth Meyers and Mythic Quest. Rolling Stone named her one of “The 50 Funniest People Right Now,” and she’s even starred in a Super Bowl ad with Michael Bublé!

We discuss navigating the tension between vulnerability and self-deprecation, the risk of commodifying trauma, using comedy to control the narrative around your perceived flaws, does success cure imposter syndrome and is Aparna Nancherla happy…

Join the Insiders Club at patreon.com/comcompod where you can WATCH the full episode and get access to 20 minutes of exclusive extras including staring in Comedy Central's Corporate, the worst comedy advice she's ever received (it's shocking!), voice acting and navigating creative tension in a work environment.
