## Resource

My HoneyDew this week is comedian and actor Jay Chandrasekhar! Check out his Podcast Mustache Tales, and his app Vouch. Jay joins me to Highlight the Lowlights of growing up in the Chicago suburbs, having doctor parents, and how he paved his way into Hollywood and comedy. We talk about the history of arranged marriages in Indian culture, and how Jay’s grandma once offered to pay $10,000 in diamonds to keep her son from marrying someone she hadn’t chose. We also dive into Jay’s experience being one of the only Indian families in his neighborhood, and the moment with his father that sparked his desire to write his own scripts and get on screen.
