Mona Madgavkar
Mona Madgavkar once won second place in a chili cookoff. She was robbed.
She got her start in radio at the Transom Story Workshop and Gimlet Media, where she worked on the shows Heavyweight and Reply All. She grew up in suburban Houston and studied at the University of Texas at Austin, where she had a short-lived late night radio show on KVRX. She lives in Brooklyn with her partner and their magnificent black cat, Billi.
