Question: What happens when you gather seasoned comedy writers, actors, and other entertainment veterans Wendy Hammers, Jeff Lesser, Rena Strober, Arlene Malinowski, Charles Freericks,Linda Shaffer and Carlos Kotkin?  Answer: You can this episode of Tasty Words, MY CAT IS SMARTER THAN YOURS. Stories about beloved furry friends. Hosted by Wendy Hammers,  an evening of genuine cat-tales. You will be - pardon the terrible pun - whiskered away.

In this week's episode, both of our storytellers experience the most humbling of human experiences: being embarrassed. Part 1: Emma Yarbrough feels in control of her future after undergoing an egg retrieval operation until a burning sensation sends her for a loop. Part 2: When the doctor finds blood in Carlos Kotkin's urine, he ends up having to undergo some deeply humiliating procedures. Emma Yarbrough is a storyteller, actor, playwright, arts administrator and silly billy from beautiful (and tiny) Eufaula, Alabama. Fans of Story Collider in Atlanta may recognize her as one of our producers and hosts. During the day, she's the assistant director of Emory Arts at Emory University. At night, she's a handmaiden to her cats Christopher Robin and Christopher Lloyd. Carlos Kotkin is an author, screenwriter and humorist. His dating memoir "Please God Let It Be Herpes: A Heartfelt Quest For Love And Companionship" was published in 2012 and he has also written a number of animated features, including Rio 2, Open Season: Scared Silly, The Star and the soon-to-be released Giants of La Mancha. His stories have been featured in The New York Times' Modern Love, Reader's Digest and Sunset Magazine, even though the Sunset Magazine was whittled down from five pages to one paragraph. (They still paid him.) His stories have also been aired on The Moth, Risk and KRCW's Unfictional podcasts. He was valedictorian of his high school, then promptly dropped out of the University of Southern California, so he never thought he'd be in a show about science, but here we are. He's not a fan of writing about himself in the third person. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Carlos Kotkin knows how to spin a good yarn. He's won countless open-mic storytelling competitions for The Moth -- a series of events (and a popular podcast) in which contestants tell stories without notes in cafes and clubs. He got so good at it, in fact, that eventually he was hired to host the shows. When Carlos isn't telling stories, he's writing them. He's the author of Please God Let It Be Herpes, which chronicles his horrible but hilarious dating experiences. And he's also a busy screenwriter whose credits includes the animated movies Rio 2 and The Star. On this episode of Write About Now, he talks about how his accidental career as a studio executive, how he got into storytelling, and why he won't ever take no for an answer.
