Zach and Michael Zakar call themselves the "Middle Eastern Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen,"  which gives you a taste of how funny they are. Writers, models, and actors, the Zakar Twins most recent book, "How to Be Fucking Happy," is out now. I love this line from their book description, "Happiness takes practice, so grab a pen because you're writing this story too."

As you'll tell by watching this interview, I have a ton of fun with these Iraqi brothers. Based in Detroit, their first book, "Pray the Gay Away" dug into their experiences growing up in a conservative family and coming to terms with their sexuality (and finding out they were both gay after hooking up with the same guy!).

The Zakar twins are like fun friends you want to discuss your own mental health journey with as they share theirs. We'll be hearing more from them.
