What's Missing with Ariel Elias

Ariel Elias (Just for Laughs New Faces) is a fantastic standup comic, my friend, and my co-host on our upcoming SURVIVOR PODCAST together. Here, she talks about the comfort she gets from outer space, enjoying seizures while she's in them, a simple and beautiful memory of her late dog, and not one but two "coma" moments, one from childhood and one from adulthood. It's a cozy and charming portrait of Ariel and of our still-budding friendship!
