Mindy Kaling | Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard

Описание: Mindy Kaling (Running Point, The Mindy Project, Never Have I Ever) is an Emmy-nominated writer, actor, and producer. Mindy joins the Armchair Expert to discuss how she is the only the second person Dax has ever worn a suit for, relate over the sexiness and status marker of a good yard, and ask whether one can be Indian on the west side of LA. Mindy and Dax talk about her parents coming from two different parts of India and their meet cute in Africa, how every show she makes has a slow motion shot of a shirtless man’s torso, and why accidentally breaking her costar’s nose during a play taught her the true meaning of ‘the show must go on.’ Mindy explains how Reese Witherspoon convinced her not to wait to have kids, developing the assumption that she wouldn’t be truly great in anything unless she wrote it herself, and how her relationship with her mother has actually continued since her passing.

About the Show:
Hi, I’m Dax Shepard, and I love talking to people. I am endlessly fascinated by the messiness of being human, and I find people who are vulnerable and honest about their struggles and shortcomings to be incredibly sexy. I invite you to join me as I explore other people’s stories. We will celebrate, above all, the challenges and setbacks that ultimately lead to growth and betterment. What qualifies me for such an endeavor? More than a decade of sobriety, a degree in Anthropology and four years of improv training. I will attempt to discover human “truths” without any laboratory work, clinical trials or data collection. I will be, in the great tradition of 16th-century scientists, an Armchair Expert.
