About this episode

Devin Fusaro discusses the chaotic and hilarious journey of creating the web series 'Problematic' with hosts Pranav and Usama.

A chaotic, hilarious deep dive into the making of Problematic , the award-winning web series created by Pranav, Aditi, and this week's guest, Devin Fusaro. From chlamydia-mythology cold opens to behind-the-scenes drama, on-set chaos, fights, arrests, protest stories, donut sex scenes, audio-feed disasters, and Usama accidentally roasting crew members in their headphones, this episode is a full ride. Devin – actress, producer, organizer, and the third brain behind Problematic – breaks down how the show came to life, the wildest moments on set, why the series took over the festival circuit, and what makes modern media, activism, and millennial ambition so absurdly ripe for comedy. Whether you're into comedy craft, indie filmmaking, South Asian culture, New York chaos, or just want to hear how someone got dragged out of a trash can on camera and still made it to a film festival, this one delivers.
