#32: Ari Shaffir - Disappearing from America

Turner Sparks (@TurnerBSparks) and Michael Ira Kaplan (@KapInAmerica) have Ari Shaffir (@AriShaffir) on the pod this week to talk about his decision in late 2016 to leave the US and take a one-man journey through South-East Asia. Ari turned off his phone, cut the cord on email, stopped recording his popular podcast (Ari Shaffir's Skeptic Tank), put his successful television/ stand-up comedy career on hold and bought a one way ticket to Myanmar. He tells us why he did it, how it's changed him and why he wanted to tell the story on Lost In America. Enjoy!
