Heben Nigatu is a writer for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and the co-host of Buzzfeed podcast Another Round.
The Onion A.V. Club describes Nigatu and co-host Tracy Clayton as "funny and insightful hosts, bringing their infectious personalities to conversations that range from squirrels to self-care to microaggressions in the workplace." The Guardian calls them "the smartest, funniest women in the room and everyone wants to sit at their table" and likewise writing for The Guardian, critic Sasha Frere-Jones called Clayton and Nigatu "leading American cultural critics." In its first year, Another Round was rated by iTunes, Slate, Vulture, and The Atlantic as a "Best of 2015" podcast.
In 2016, Nigatu was named to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list. In April 2016, after three and a half years working for Buzzfeed, she announced she was moving to The Late Show, but would continue hosting Another Round.
