Episode notes

Hold your loved ones close because it’s a wonderful trivia life on a new episode of Go Fact Yourself!

Rabia Chaudry is a really accomplished journalist, author and attorney. But she may be best known for her advocacy for incarcerated individuals to receive better assistance in the justice system – topics covered on her popular podcast “Undisclosed” and book, Adnan’s Story: The Search for Truth and Justice after Serial. She’ll tell us what it’s been like to help out so many people… and some of the other less serious projects that she’s also been a part of. Rabia’s upcoming book is entitled Fatty Fatty Boom Boom.

Adam Richman is a TV host whose work has famously centeredl around food. He’ll tell us about how he got his start on the show “Man v. Food.” where he tackled monstrous meals and described the experience for the audience. That opened the door for him to host the shows “Modern Marvels” and “Adam Eats the 80s” where he helps tell the human stories behind meals.

Our guests will answer questions about family corporate dramas and family Christmas classics.
