Hasan Minhaj
Patriot Act Netflix

A blend of standup and TED talk, this series seems to annoy all the right people,
including the US military, Hindu nationalists in India and Duterte supporters in the
Philippines. Minhaj’s earnest optimism might be American, but his reach is truly
global.
Best bit: “There are over 10,000 apps for mental health. That fact alone gives me
anxiety.” EEJ

Ilana Glazer
The Planet Is Burning Amazon Prime

Ignore that earnest title, the broad from Broad City isn’t about to bend your ear on
climate change. Instead, it’s the same twerk-tastic, sexually confident energy we’ve
come to love in her TV alter ego, with added Hebrew school anecdotes.
Best bit: “The Amazon is on fire and my special is on Amazon …and it
is fiiiiire.” EEJ
