Hey y'all.

Hi everybody.

Welcome to Coming Out with Lauren and Nicole.

This is a weekly podcast and what we do is we have queer folks on from all walks of life.

They tell us the tales of how they came out to friends, family, and the world at large.

Because who doesn't love a coming out story?

Today we are here with another podcaster, who I'm sure you're all familiar with.

We are sitting next to stand-up Carolyn Bourgett. Did I say it correctly?

Yeah. Yes. Especially if you make it sound like snooty.

It's such a classy name. I was terrified I'd flub it, but good on me. Carolyn Virgieet, she is a stand-up comedian, but you guys probably know her as the co-host of Diking Out. Yes. Thank you so much for being here. Thank you for having me. Yeah, and you're in town doing stand-up gigs or what? Yeah, I'm here and not like doing stand-up and then I'm doing shows in Oakland, San Francisco, Portland, and a festival in Albuquerque. Oh, nice. That's awesome. That's so exciting. Well, you're very, you're very vibrant for it. You guys will see in the pictures. She is all pinked out the best way.

Pink hair, pink lipstick, pink shoes.

Pink shoes that my wife picked out.

They're awesome.

They're really good.

How long has your hair been pink?

So my pink hair is what I call my divorce hair.

Oh, that's great.

I love that.

Yeah, so it's divorce hair, and then it kind of just became my thing.

So I've had it for three years now.

Oh, terrific.

Yeah.
