The one and only Ego Nwodim helps Kyle answer “what are we even doing?” in an infectiously silly chat about how she plotted her career trajectory from USC biology major to successful actor, writer & comedian, the unforgettable magic of Miss Eggy & Ego’s canon of masterful SNL characters, her creative process & improv superpowers, and the importance of presence & fun. Kyle and Ego unpack that time she set her lawn ablaze and what it’s like hosting her Thanks Dad podcast while balancing all her upcoming projects before flexing their improv & FaceTime skills in a guessing game called “Flustered FaceTime Farewells”.
