Sarah Brown
What’s your name and where do you live?
Sarah Brown. Baytown, TX.
When did you start listening to TBTL? How did you find the show?
I don't quite remember the year, but I was living in Chicago at the time. I found out about it from listening to Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me. It was a newish podcast at the time, with Jen and Sean heavily featured. I attended a live show of the podcast in a bar in Chicago, and got to go to karaoke with Jen, Luke, and Sean afterwards. Maybe you super-sleuths can help me figure out the year? My best guess is 2010.
How would your friends describe you?
Capricorn AF.
What was your favorite cereal when you were a kid? Is it still your fav?
Fruit loops! I would still eat bowls of the stuff if I wasn't a middle-aged person concerned with their blood sugar.
What food do you love to eat the most of?
Tacos now and forever as my "might have it for dinner" food.
What’s the best or worst nickname you ever had?
Saeda. Because my name is so terribly generic, when I went away to college I tried to give myself a new name - Saeda. It didn't really stick, and now it makes me cringe.
If you could play one song on TBTL, what would it be?
Haterz, by Keith Frank. This is my favorite Zydeco song, which links me to my Cajun-Creole heritage and upbringing.
What’s a special skill you have that you’re most proud of?
Making friendos and building community wherever I roam, usually through improv, sketch comedy, and theatre.
What’s a special skill that you *wish* you had?
Music! I wish I could play an instrument, especially now that I work for a music nonprofit.
If you were driving down the street and you saw Luke and Andrew on the sidewalk, what would you yell at them as you drove past?
Keeping it classic: "Ahoy hoy!"
