About Stern Chats

Stern Chats is an MBA student-run podcast. Our Mission is to explore untold stories of students, alumni, administrators and faculty at NYU Stern. While NYU Stern is filled with impressive resumes, some of the best stories cannot be found on paper. Each episode features members of the Stern community and their personal stories and reflections. We hope that everyone—even beyond the walls of Stern—will listen, appreciate, and learn about the people that make the NYU Stern community what it is. Follow us on Instagram and LinkedIn for more!

   Follies: Off Script

   In this episode of Stern Chats, hosts Claire Chuff and Omar Garcia are joined by Co-President Namankita Rana and Chief of Staff Thomas Dols to get into what it really takes to bring Follies to life. From auditions and rehearsals to everything happening behind the scenes, they talk about the time, energy, and collaboration that go into the show—and why so many people, creatives or not, choose to be part of it. It’s a look at how the Stern community comes together—and a fun way to close out the school year.
