New York vs Los Angeles | Aparna Nancherla | Stand Up Comedy

Comedian Aparna Nancherla on the conspiracy about how much water you’re actually supposed to drink per day, the biggest differences between NYC and LA, and why meditation apps are BS in her hilarious Don’t Tell Comedy set!

Comedy is at its best when there’s a surprise – that’s why Don’t Tell Comedy puts on events where the performers and location are kept secret until the day of the show. With over 150 cities already in on the joke, you never know where we’ll set up shop, or who might pop in. Want to be let in on the secret?

Just don’t tell anyone!! 🤫
