Celebrity Panelists

This episode will feature actress Yara Shahidi, actor Jeremy Sisto, actress and comedian Michelle Buteau, and comedian Russell Peters.

Yara Shahidi recently discussed her generation’s thoughts about identities in an interview with Net-A-Porter. Yara says “so where do we, Gen Z, go from here? I have no clue… But I eagerly await the efforts of our compound voices and I look forward to the home we build. A home where we lose the rhetoric of coming together in spite of our differences, but we intentionally unite because of them.”
