Summary

Dear Humans,

Karan Soni once played My assistant on Miracle Workers. Now instead of pretending with Steve Buscemi, he’s talking to the real thing.

We talked about his new film, A Nice Indian Boy, and what it means to navigate family, culture, and identity in a country that feels like it's falling apart.

We also touched on tariffs, current events, and how anyone is supposed to stay joyful when everything around them is burning.

It’s funny. It’s thoughtful. It might be the calmest thing I’ve published all week.

Take a breath. Press play.
