Actor and comedian Aizzah Fatima stops by to talk about the theatrical release of her award-winning film, "Americanish," about the challenges of raising money from the Muslim community to make a film, and about how her early career stint at Google pushed her toward acting. Nadia and Rob also talk about how two judges in Georgia blocked the Fearless fund from extending grants to black, women entrepreneurs and about comments from two progressive CEOs on leadership in the face of anti-woke pushback. Later, Nadia weighs in on return to the office initiatives and Rob loves how Leguizamo "does" America.
