Kal Penn takes Vanity Fair’s Lie Detector Test. Is Kal Penn his real name? Was he a strict professor while teaching film class at UPenn? What cologne does he still unashamedly wear? Like his character on NBC’s ‘Sunnyside,’ has he ever used his fame to get out of a speeding ticket?

Watch all episodes of ‘Sunnyside’ on NBC.com, starring and executive produced by Kal Penn!

Why is the audio quality of the interviewer more coherent than Kal Penn’s? Sounds super quiet.

Can you guys edit something in when there is a lie going down, just to make it more clear when there is doubt or someone tells a lie
