Description

Join Anna and Ida V. Eskamani, thirty-something twins and two of the hardest-working fighters in Florida as they navigate the madness of life and politics. This is a show about growing up as proud daughters of working-class Iranian immigrants, enduring dating apps and calling out greedy corporations, finding joy in dark times and poking fun at ourselves – and at a few bullies, too. Welcome to the Eskamadness! Find resources referenced in the show at: linktr.ee/twinningforflorida
