Summary

The comedian/writer/podcaster had never talked much about losing his virginity at 15 to a 32 year-old tutor. Tonight that changed and so did his view of the event and aftermath. He also opens up about being a preacher's kid (who wasn't even allowed to see Footloose), being a father and the role "forbidden" music played in helping him cope as young man.
