The podcast host talks about the cultural energy and different styles of humor in different parts of the world, particularly in New York where the personality is an attack and can be overwhelming for some people.
The host discusses the differences in communication styles across the US, from the blunt and direct style in New York City to the more passive-aggressive style found in the Midwest.
