In these quarantined times, aren't we all just looking for a BIFL of our own? Not sure what a BIFL is? Well I got just the podcast (and web series) for you! On the bridge this week we have Anisha Adusumilli, an actor out of LA who over the years has had appearances on NBC's "Outsourced," Fox's "New Girl," and CBS' "How I Met Your Mother" and "NCIS: Los Angeles," among many others. Anisha talks to Jas about growing up in Ohio expressing herself through dancing and singing, to eventually discovering acting at UCLA (and finally becoming a California girl), to balancing the pursuit of Theater and Business Economics. She is the lead of a new web series called "BIFL," who's entire first season can be binged now on RevryTV! It's a LGBTQIA+ comedy/drama that deals with those identities, expectations, different shades of intimacy, and what it really means to love someone.
