Summary

My guest on the show this week is the incredibly talented writer and performer, Eric D. Snider. In the episode, we discuss finding his love of comedy at a young age, his time at BYU studying journalism, starting the Garrens Comedy Troupe on campus, serving a mission, grappling with being gay as a member of the church, becoming a movie reviewer, living in Portland, leaving the church for a time, his path back, and his new life back in Utah working for the church. Eric is one of the kindest, funniest and most talented people I know. His wit and candor are at once touching and entertaining.
