Sorry What? is an advice podcast from a bad listener. Comedian Jared Goldstein and his esteemed guests think outside of themselves for once to tell you how to live life. 

Jared Goldstein: Jared Goldstein is incredibly funny and talented and gifted but also smart and young and soaking wet. There are a lot worse websites out there so please enjoy this one. Jared was most recently a 2022 Just for Laughs New Face and one of Vulture’s Comedians You Should and Will Know. He can currently be seen on Roku’s NIKKI FRE$H, starring opposite Nicole Richie, as well as appearing in season 2 of DOLLFACE on Hulu and the final season of THE UNICORN on CBS.

Jared’s standup premiered in this past group of Comedy Central’s FEATURING, and in 2019 he was chosen as one of New York Comedy Festival Comics to Watch as well as Time Out’s Comedians to Watch. Jared participated in the 2020 CBS Diversity Showcase. Previously, he has appeared on ABC’s Modern Family, COUNTERPART with JK Simmons for Starz, RIZZOLI & ISLES, and the feature film IT’S KIND OF A FUNNY STORY starring Zach Galifianakis. Originally from Long Island (sad), he’s also appeared on SNL in a sketch written by Tina Fey featuring Jimmy Fallon as well as the Off-Broadway production of Spring Awakening and the Broadway production of A Christmas Carol at Madison Square Garden.

This week, stand-up comedian/actress Zainab Johnson discusses flying economy, coffee mugs, and not going to weddings.

Zainab Johnson: Zainab Johnson is a stand-up comedian, actress, and writer. She is quickly being propelled as one of the most unique and engaging performers on stage and screen. 

Zainab’s comedy is based on her unique point-of-view, which was shaped growing up in Harlem as one of thirteen siblings in a black Muslim family.  After getting a degree in Math and Education and taking a job as a teacher, she quickly learned that she had a different calling…
Zainab is currently a series regular on the new Amazon Original hit series titled “Upload” from Greg Daniels, she is one of the hosts for Netflix’s show “100 Humans”, and starred as Dr. Hanniel in the brilliantly written web series Avant-Guardians. She made her first late night stand up appearance on NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers  and had breakout appearances on HBO’s All Def Comedy,  NBC’s Last Comic Standing, and has performed at the JFL Comedy Festival in Montreal first as a “New Face of Comedy”, then as “Variety’s Top 10 Comics to Watch”, and most recently on the longest running JFL show “Just For The Culture”. She is a paid regular at The Comedy Store, The Improv, and Laugh Factory  in Los Angeles as well as the Comedy Cellar in New York City.  

Zainab is truly a treat to watch live and there is no performer like her so make sure you check her out when she’s in a city near you!
