"There is no sunrise so beautiful that it is worth waking me up to see it." -Mindy Kaling

WAKE UP AND BREATHE OR YOU WILL DIE. It's a snoozing good time this week as Pallavi Gunalan (Lovett or Leave it, Facial Recognition Comedy) purposefully opens her throat to break down her complicated relationship with sleep. From bioengineering at Cal Tech and Carnegie Mellon to the dirty comedy streets, Pallavi has associated herself with all sorts of interesting characters. We discuss the relationship between lack of sleep and depression, the need for personal forgiveness, and why carrying vials of AIDS-filled blood in your purse is a recipe for disaster. Ya think???

Pallavi is a brilliant young comedian who can and will do anything she can to make the world a better place for everyone. Selfless, hilarious, and full of heart. I can't wait to see how far she goes.
