In today’s episode, Amanda sits down over some triple chocolate milk stout by Flying Monkeys with actor, writer, and wannabe astronaut Nkasi Ogbonnah (The Second City, Untitled Black Sketch Project, 1623) to discuss the best long-lasting lipsticks, what a gift it is to safely hold an audience in uncomfortable moments, and (of course) space! Nkasi is a Second City mainstage alumni and a member of the 2020 Sketch Comedy Project Fund recipient Untitled Black Sketch, Canada’s first all-Black sketch ensemble. She is also a member of the Toronto Fringe Festival’s Woke N’ Broke, which won Best Ensemble from NOW Magazine and a member of 1623, a history-based sketch troupe alongside Kat Lewin. Nkasi (not so) secretly dreams of becoming an astronaut - so if anyone knows someone at the Canadian Space Agency, let’s make Nkasi’s dreams come true and send her to space!!
