Hasan MinhajEvery podcast appearance, updated as new ones drop

To recognize your own talent takes time and self-awareness. But to find the courage to pursue it? That often requires a spark of inspiration from someone else. For Hasan Minhaj, that spark came from an unexpected trio—a teacher, a roommate, and Napster. A former correspondent on The Daily Show , Hasan’s natural gift of gab allowed him to build a wide-ranging career which spans standup, acting, Netflix shows, and, most recently, his podcast, Hasan Minhaj Doesn’t Know. I had the pleasure of sitting down with Hasan to discuss his journey—why gifted people crave external validation, why kids are braver than adults, and where comedians truly rank in the artistic hierarchy. This… is A Bit of Optimism. For more on Hasan and his work check out: hasanminhaj.com

This week, comedian and social commentator Hasan Minhaj joins us for a moving conversation about how his faith has been foundational in shaping his sense of optimism. We explore how Hasan's ever-deepening belief system influences his approach to life as a father, brother, caregiver, and partner to his brilliant wife—each role guiding his broader personal journey. Hasan shares how he moves with purpose, actively seeks growth moments, and explains why he believes it's important to "keep receipts". As we continue adding new ideas—or seeds—to our optimism garden, Hasan reminds us that the answers we seek may already be within us. We’d love to hear your thoughts, questions, or ideas.

Today, the guys discuss Hasan Minhaj’s new comedy special “Off With His Head” (despite Asif’s hesitation) (2:18). The guys start off by recapping Hasan’s background and the controversy that swirled around him in 2023, associated with a New Yorker article which resulted in Minhaj losing the hosting role of “The Daily Show”. Then they give their thoughts on the good and bad aspects of his new special and his non-apology in the show. Then, Ali asks Asif about his sabbatical where he is learning about deep brain stimulation (DBS) (35:30). Asif talks about what it is and how it is used in a variety of neurologic diseases in adults especially in Parkinson’s disease. He talks about the procedure including the risks. Finally, Ali asks Asif about what it is currently being used for in children. The opinions expressed are those of the hosts, and do not reflect those of any other organizations.

Our first interview with Bradley, has had quite the summer and we cover a lot with him.

Then we transition to a very deep and philosophical conversation with Hasan Minhaj. Topics include: Hasan and JJ's love of their minivans, how he went about producing his new Netflix stand-up special, "The King's Jester", Hasan's interest in what metric of success NBA players value the most, how JJ and Hasan deal with the aggregation machine and the pros and cons of going 'viral', a very sincere conversation about male friendships, why Stephen Curry is the best 'performer' in The NBA, what NBA players and other celebrities owe their fans, Hasan on what actual winning means to him and so much more.
