The host of NPR’s comedy quiz show “Ask Me Another” is a funny lady who has experienced her share of trauma. The two—humor and pain—are indelibly linked in comedy, and her own brutally honest approach is no exception. But where Eisenberg could easily have infused her comedy with bitterness, she has refused to let anger get the better of her. And her work, as a result, is full of keen observation and empathy.   Brooklyn news and views you can use: bkmag.com Email: hello@bkmag.com Follow along on Facebook: Brooklyn Magazine Twitter: @brooklynmag Instagram: @brooklynmagazine Follow Brian Braiker on Twitter: @slarkpope

Julian Velard is a singer, songwriter and pianist from New York City.

In the past, you may have heard him on the Howard Stern show or on NPR’s Ask Me Another. Julian also currently records the podcast Real Gentlemen of Queens with Brian “B-Ski” Collazo, whose name you might remember from an earlier episode of Detoxicity.In our conversation, Julian wrestles with the idea of defining success on one’s own terms. He also talks about his anti-authoritarian childhood, generational trauma and being a product of your upbringing, not smoothing out his rough edges to be more palatable for the masses, becoming a husband and father himself, and much much more.

Ophira Eisenberg is a comedian and storyteller, and she hosts the ever popular NPR word game show, Ask Me Another. We spoke about how difficult it is to not get too caught up in the future, and how it’s all the worse when you have no choice but to adapt to a tumultuous present. We also talked about storytelling, comedy, and being vulnerable on stage without worrying too much about what people will think. Wee all worry about judgement, but I think grappling with that fear is the best way to find your voice.

Jesse Baker is an award-winning journalist and producer who most recently led a large team of creative makers as Audible’s vice president of original content. At Audible, she produced and developed a number of the company’s most successful original series, including West Cork and three seasons of Esther Perel’s Where Should We Begin? As a huge fan of the iconic couples therapist Esther Perel, I was curious to learn what it’s like to create such an intimate podcast. I tried to kept my fangirling to a minimum! We recorded this episode 8 weeks into quarantine, right when they were gearing up to launch season 4 of Where Should We Begin? and finishing a special “Lockdown” series of the show. Jesse began her career in public radio in her early 20s. She was a producer on major NPR news magazines including All Things Considered and Weekend Edition. In many ways, NPR raised her. She later created the popular NPR weekly trivia program Ask Me Another. Jesse also produced The Culture Gabfest while at Slate and worked for ESPN producing The Sporting Life with Jeremy Schaap. With deep roots in the radio, audio, and now podcast world, we nerd out about the godfather of the art form; Ira Glass. She admits he’d hate being called that. She reveals how Ira helped launch Where Should We Begin? thanks to his deep roots in the world of psychology. His mother, Shirley Glass, was considered one of the world's leading experts on infidelity. The New York Times once called her "the godmother of infidelity research."  This week, Jesse shines a light on meeting Esther for the first time, how the podcast market has evolved since 2014’s smash SERIAL, and how being laid off from Audible led to tremendous growth.
