Ask Men Anything

Comedian and actor Usama Siddiquee brings his charisma (and dimples) to the studio to talk to Emma about growing up Muslim in Texas, unlearning homophobia, and why men need to get over their insecurity about women being funny. Usama answers a listener's Why Do Men? email about men's handshakes, and teaches Emma how to dap like a dude. Emma puts Usama in the AMA hot seat with questions about ghosting, interracial dating, and his most embarrassing memory. Then, Usama helps Emma solve a personal dilemma about her questionable vitamins, and gives a listener an apology after her date failed to disclose his weird sleeping arrangements. Finally, they wrap with a lightning round about sex cleanup etiquitte, toothbrushes, and the incomparable safety of a woman's bosom.
