== Description ==
Do you hear the people sing? It’s another edition of Go Fact Yourself!
Jim O'Heir is best known for his role as Jerry/Larry/Terry/Garry on NBC’s beloved comedy Parks & Recreation. But despite the show’s monstrous fanbase, he says that he still hears people confuse it with another beloved NBC comedy. You can probably guess which one. He’ll tell us all about his career and why he was so shocked when he won his first Emmy award.
Dulcé Sloan is a frequent correspondent on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah. What’s one of her most memorable things about working on the show? It’s gotta be the costumes — she’s dressed up as everything from a Christmas tree to God with an afro. Plus, she’ll tell us about how she feels right at home with Korean culture, from the history to the TV to the food.
Guests answer questions about (and shed some tears for) intergalactic voyages, international plays and the perfect Korean meal spread.

=== What's the Difference? ===
Trust but Verify 
==== Distrust vs Mistrust ====
*from listeners Greg and Mona Yaeger of Chicago, Il. 
You mistrust something when you have no reason to believe the source; like advice from a stranger or if you have a general sense of unease as to the reliability of the information. You distrust when you know from previous experience that the information or its source is unreliable or wrong. 
==== Verify vs Confirm ====
When you verify, you are checking up on something that you are unsure is accurate or not. When you confirm, you are checking up on something you believe to be accurate but are making sure.
