[Contains explicit content] Some people call it the city that never sleeps, some call it the Big Apple, but our host Michelle Buteau calls it home. This episode of Sounds Like America features a comedic sound collage that will make you fall in love-hate with New York City for the very first time, or all over again. You'll hear stand-up jokes, interviews with NYC comedians like Godfrey and Chris Gethard, local music, and the thoughts of normal people we bothered on the street. The result is a frenetic trip through the five boroughs that you can take without leaving the comfort of your smart phone.

Here are some of the Big Apple-tastic funny people featured on this episode: Aparna Nancherla, Nato Green, Jarrod Harris, Chris Fairbanks, Natasha Muse, Nore Davis, Jon Fisch, Casey Balsham, Elna Baker, Sam Smith, Andy Haynes, and Guy Branum.

You also heard interviews with comedians Chris Gethard and Godfrey. Original music in this episode was by Cyzon Griffin and Henry Young, Orlando "ZEPS" Molina, and Melanie Charles.
