Ramy Youssef Returns

Ramy Youssef (Mountainhead, Number One Happy Family USA, Ramy) is an award-winning comedian, director, and actor. Ramy returns to the Armchair Expert to discuss how shooting Mountainhead was akin to a play, his subway take that everyone is inherently good and evil is just a virus, and why the US Constitution is dope. Ramy and Dax talk about likening his experience making TV to the national integrity crisis, who can throw a Molotov cocktail, and why the best things in life often emerge in spite of us. Ramy explains his initial understanding that at its core Poor Things is a romcom, how to him LeBron is the personification of discipline, and why he wanted to make a cartoon about a Muslim-American family set on and after September 10, 2001.

Jon Stewart on Wrongful Deportation and How Trump Fails to Deliver | Ramy Youssef

Jon Stewart measures Trump's weight on the authoritarian scale.

They also discuss his favorite parts about making an animated show, the family members who inspire some of the characters, and how the word “Islamaphobia” kind of lets Islamaphobes off the hook.
