Aparna Nancherla on Being a Shy Kid

Aparna Nancherla was a shy kid with serious stage fright, so naturally she became a stand-up comic. Aparna tells Mo Welch all about childhood public speaking classes, bombing between two punk bands, and explains why "who cares" became her favorite advice. Plus: Mo and Aparna draw horses.
