Summary

Comedian Madi Hart walks us through growing up as the "rebellious queer kid" in a very religious and conservative family. She discusses the conflicts she faced, particularly around her queer identity, and the intersection of misogyny and homophobia that surrounded her. Madi's experiences highlight the complexity of maintaining relationships with differing views and the importance of empathy, understanding, and self-acceptance. But best of all - Madi shares the story of hilariously ending up on prime time Fox News and her plans to bring homosexuality to her family's shrine on Ronald Reagan.
