Episode 030: Sasheer Zamata & Samm Levine

==Description==
“The Simpsons,” Quentin Tarantino and comedy come together on Go Fact Yourself!
Sasheer Zamata is best known for her roles on “Saturday Night Live” and as the host of the variety showcase Sasheer Zamata Party Time. She’ll tell us about why a very… confusing invasion of her privacy has her so protective of her personal possessions.
Sasheer will go up against actor Samm Levine, who you may know from the Quentin Tarentino film Inglorious Basterds. He’s also in the beloved, but short-lived, TV series “Freaks and Geeks.” He’s heard from a lot of fans who say they wish that show hadn’t ended so abruptly. But good news: he’ll share his solution to keeping “Freaks and Geeks” going for just a little longer.

===What's the Difference?===
Space
==== Meteor vs Meteorite ====
Meteors: When meteoroids enter Earth’s atmosphere (or that of another planet, like Mars) at high speed and burn up, the fireballs or “shooting stars” are called meteors.
Meteorites: When a meteoroid survives a trip through the atmosphere and hits the ground, it’s called a meteorite.
====Nook vs Cranny ====
*from listener Kira Gowan of Los Angeles, CA. (who happens to be the advertising specialist at Maximum Fun) 
A nook is a small place that is hidden or partially sheltered but purposefully built into a larger place like a breakfast nook or a telephone nook. A cranny is a crack or crevasse that usually isn't built on purpose, like in a rock or wall.
