Ramy Youssef - The comedian on his new special More Feelings, connecting with the Palestinian cause, and finding laughter in vulnerability
SANYA MANSOOR
Ramy Youssef

You've taken on more diverse projects recently. What else can we expect?

I'm chasing a few different ideas: some directing, some acting. A lot of my favorite artists started young, but made my favorite work of theirs once they were closer to 40. I'm not quite there, but I'm starting to understand why.

You don't shy away from talking about therapy and intimacy. What was it like leaning into that kind of vulnerability? I never want to do comedy that feels like it's critiquing others without critiquing myself. That's been a rule for me. This special [premiering in March 2024 on HBO] is definitely a more full embodiment of that idea. There's a hope I have that if I could lay out what's going on and how I think about it, that maybe I can be someone that makes harder things a little softer to digest.

Insecurity is the new inequality

DONALD TRUMP'S SECOND PRESIDENTIAL TERM HAS already been accompanied by a cascade of unnerving political and natural events-from the U.S.'s leaving the World Health Organization and the Paris Climate Accords, to the nighttime firings of inspectors general and pardons of the Jan. 6 rioters, to the raids targeting immigrants in a number of cities and the wildfires roaring through swaths of Los Angeles.
