What even is a virus, anyway? How does it work? Laika and Albie get to the bottom of some sick mysteries with scientist, writer, and comedian Raj Sivaraman.
Raj Sivaraman is a writer, comedian, and unfunded research scientist. He has been featured in the New York Times, Huffington Post, and hosts the monthly show Monotony!, where comedians talk about their weird, trivial obsessions. Raj has performed in comedy festivals around the country and presented his research at just as many science conferences around the world. He has also written for Comedy Central, and was one of the main writers and performers for Boston News Net. His sketch album “In Case of Emergency” is available in several boxes under his bed.
Featuring Tessa Hersh, Liz Gerger, Matthew S Starr & Raj Sivaraman.
