About this listen
[Contains explicit content] This is Sounds Like America, a wild sound collage of America starring the people who've seen it all and tell it like it really is: comedians. In this episode, Milwaukee-born comic Jackie Kashian introduces us to that huge swath of territory that lies in between the country's most expensive real estate markets. Ah, the Midwest - land of cornfields, common sense, and questionable diets.
The comedy in this episode was recorded at live venues all around the country. It features Derek Sheen, Andi Smith, Matt Braunger, Rob Brackenridge, Johnny Pemberton, Mike Brody, Cash Levy, Geoff Tate, Mike Lukas, Megan Gailey, Mary Mack, and Tom Segura.
Also featured is an interview with Dan Savage, as well as several noble people we bothered on the street and in the office.

Story
A daughter of Korean immigrants, Hyeseung Song spends her earliest years in the cane fields of Texas where her loyalties are divided between a restless father in search of Big Money, and a beautiful yet domineering mother whose resentments about her own life compromises her relationship with her daughter. With her parents at constant odds, Song learns more words in Korean for hatred than for love. When the family’s fake Gucci business lands them in bankruptcy, Song moves to a new elementary school. On her first day, a girl asks the teacher: “Can she speak English?”

Story
Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist was a wildly successful, innovative, and hilarious show on Comedy Central that ran for six seasons. In it, Jonathan Katz performed as the therapist to a host of big-name comics coming to terms with their neuroses. The amazing cast also included Laura Silverman and Jon Benjamin as regulars, and the show popularized the Squigglevision animation style. In January of 2008, a live version of Dr. Katz was staged with the original lineup and featured BJ Novak, Eugene Mirman, and Andy Kindler as the guest-star patients. This is the result.
