Ramy joins the Armchair Expert to discuss what his favorite comedies are, the current state of religion, and why he feels American Exceptionalism needs to end. Ramy and Dax talk about being born into a certain culture or faith, their experiences with drugs and alcohol, and how to handle the attention of being recognizable. Ramy explains what he means by people "living in the unseen," his obsession with candy, and how everyone's definition of happiness is unique.

<p>Hi, I’m Dax Shepard, and I love talking to people. I am endlessly fascinated by the messiness of being human, and I find people who are vulnerable and honest about their struggles and shortcomings to be incredibly sexy. I invite you to join me as I explore other people’s stories. We will celebrate, above all, the challenges and setbacks that ultimately lead to growth and betterment. What qualifies me for such an endeavor? More than a decade of sobriety, a degree in Anthropology and four years of improv training. I will attempt to discover human “truths” without any laboratory work, clinical trials or data collection. I will be, in the great tradition of 16th-century scientists, an Armchair Expert.</p><p>Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.
