This is Mormon Stories. I'm John Delin. Today we have a special treat for you. I will be interviewing

0:06.4

Bent Washburn who is an LDS comedian who's very funny, but I have two disclaimers. One is that

0:14.7

Bent uses sometimes profane language and sometimes semi-sexual explicit material. It's definitely not

0:22.3

r-rated in my opinion. It's nothing worse than a PG-13 movie and everything that he does has an

0:28.2

important point or some wisdom behind it, but I just wanted to give you all this disclaimer

0:33.4

that you should know about. There is some sexually explicit discussion and there is some profanity,

0:41.2

although that's not the majority at all. The second thing I just want to tell you is that we did a

0:46.0

full video of Bent Washburn and you can find that up on YouTube or in this podcast feed. So if you

0:52.7

want to actually see Bent perform his material or see this interview, you can check it out at

0:58.9

youtube.com slash Mormon Stories or go up to Mormon Stories.org. But for those of you who are

1:04.4

interested, I think this is a hilarious and insightful performance by Bent. So I hope you enjoy it.

1:10.4

Glad to be here. It's my pleasure. It may come as a surprise to you, but there might be one or two

1:42.6

people in my listening audience who have actually not heard of you before. So let me brag about

1:47.9

you for just a second. Okay. Oh, sweet. I love this. Yes. Cool. All right. As I look on your website,

1:55.0

which is GetBent.com or Bent.com. I guess we should start out by clarifying how you spell your name.

2:01.3

Tell us how you spell your name. B-E-N-G-T. Sweetish. And the G is. It's silent. It's silent. So I get my

2:10.3

street name silent G, you know. You have a lot of credit street credit. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

2:18.4

And so get Bent.com with the G B-E-N-G-T. Yeah. It says that you've appeared on television. Yeah.

2:24.8

On the late show. The late late show with Craig Ferguson. That's pretty swanky. Yeah.
