Ramy Youssef's new animated comedy series,
#1 Happy Family USA, is about an Egyptian American Muslim family living in New Jersey, after 9/11, trying to blend in and doing everything they can to avoid being seen as a threat. Youssef spoke with Terry Gross about the series and his own experience during that time.
Also, Danny McBride talks with Tonya Mosley about his HBO series
The Righteous Gemstones, about a wildly dysfunctional family of televangelists
fighting for power, influence, and their father's approval.
