SASHEER ZAMATA is an actress, writer, and comedian. She is the fifth black female cast member on Saturday Night Live, and the first since Maya Rudolph's departure in 2006. Sasheer has performed regularly with The Upright Citizens Brigade and has appeared on Inside Amy Schumer and Totally Biased with Kamau W. Bell. She has a web series called Pursuit of Sexiness. Follow her on Twitter: @thesheertruth.

ISAAC FITZGERALD has been a firefighter, worked on a boat, and been given a sword by a king, thereby accomplishing three out of five of his childhood goals. He has written for The Bold Italic, McSweeney's, Mother Jones, and The San Francisco Chronicle. He is the co-founder of Pen & Ink, and editor of BuzzFeed Books.

HOW I LEARNED features writers, storytellers, comics, and other raconteurs holding forth on a rotating theme. It's really the best thing for you right now. The series has been featured in the New York Times, New York Observer, Electric Literature, Splitsider, The L Magazine, The Rumpus, Flavorpill, and elsewhere. It has been named Best NYC Storytelling and Reading Series, and is a multiple-time Critic's Pick in Time Out New York's Books, Comedy, and Own This City sections. How I Learned happens every last Wednesday of the month, and sometimes more than that, which basically means you'll have the best night of your life on those nights, repeatedly.

BLAISE ALLYSEN KEARSLEY is the creator, producer, and host of How I Learned and the creator/producer of Best in Show. She has told stories at The Moth, RISK!, The Rejection Show, Mortified, Cringe, Real Characters, and Literary Death Match, which she did not win. Her writing has been published in Midnight Breakfast, The Weeklings, The Nervous Breakdown, VICE, two anthologies, and several other places that are perhaps not worth mentioning by name. One time, she was awarded a month-long writing residency in Vermont where she got electrocuted and maybe almost killed a horse. Visit her at your own risk.
