Maysoon Zayid is a comedienne, actress, writer, disability advocate, and tap dancer. She is also a Doriva, which you'll find out about during the podcast. We decided to go with the flow with this one, so jump on in and give it a listen.
We discuss:

- Her dad and how he had a way of making each kid think they were his favorite (which they didn't figure out until after he died)
- How Maysoon ended up in comedy
- How she has accomplished everything she said she would - even though she says she hasn't yet
- All the very cool projects Maysoon is currently involved in
- A bunch of other things
- And just exactly why she is a Doriva
