Angela (They/Them) is a fresh faced education and comedy podcaster based in Iowa City, Iowa. Their comedy and education style is unpretentious, half researched, and drenched in opinion. When Angela is not recording, editing, or working up the nerve to get on stage, they can be found changing the lives of children and taking chili cheese dogs to the face.

Maya's candor invites people into her life and thought process through riveting story telling. A naturally charming performer, she engages audiences with skillful ease.
