Amir Yassai is a queer Muslim unicorn who won’t shy away from any conversation. I live on Bravo TV and Real Housewives are my Xanax. I’ll talk dismantling racism, homophobia & transphobia while still making you laugh. Comedy is at the center of everything I do. Chatting with Amir will be like chatting with an old friend with a lot more sass. If you love to talk Bravo & drag queens while laughing and also like to talk mental health, then this is the podcast for you. Newsflash I’m A LOT.  FOLLOW AMIR: Instagram: @amiryassofficial
