We catch up with Christian who auditioned to become a hand model & Shonali who returned from her honeymoon in Peru. Their new segment GET IT OFF YOUR CHEST is now open to audience members. Please share your rants with us on stage at the next show. We will rap right along with you. Highlights of Ep. 43 include Christian's first time receiving a mani-pedi and Shonali's new fluency in Spanish. WDEK's first guest is journalist, NY Times reporter and author of the Taliban Shuffle, Kim Barker. Kim shares her need to write a dark comedy about war after being the bureau chief for the Chicago Tribune in South Asia. The movie version of her book, became Whiskey Tango Foxtrot starring Tina Fey. Kim grew up wanting to be a superhero but settled for being a journalist. Find out about bruised peaches, her 18 points twitter rant and her love of writing New York stories, "a wonderful big awesome corrupt place." WDEK's long time sound engineer Stephen Kurpis is leaving but not without giving us his famous secret marinara sauce recipe. One secret - do not use Extra Virgin Olive Oil (see below). Thank you Stephen. Comedian, actress and SNL cast member Sasheer Zamata talks duvets with Christian and Shonali. They are hard work. Our conversation with Sasheer covers SNL, celebrity, Larry Wilmore's use of the N-word and what it's like to be confused with other funny black women. Also, watch out for Sasheer's mom who may very well become one of the newest cast members of SNL. Our musical guest is Holly Miranda, also a former Tennessean who was given speech therapy to lose her accent when she moved to Detroit. Holly who has been playing music since she was 16, very poignantly explains she "had a life" when she took five years off between her latest album and her previous one. We talk Joshua Tree, Ayahuasca, and song writing. Between Christian, Shonali & Holly they have written at least 3 fan letters - find out to whom by listening to this special episode of We Don't Even Know. What a treat to hear Holly Miranda perform three beautiful songs for us. We melt. Please follow us on Tumblr, Twitter and Facebook. We will meet again on Episode 43!
