| 0:00.0 | Welcome to questions from the closet. I'm Charlie Bird, and I'm Ben Shalatti. Each episode, we |
| 0:08.7 | discuss a question that we commonly get asked as LGBTQ plus LRD Saints. We're not trying to answer |
| 0:13.4 | this question or come to a consensus, but simply sharing our perspectives. Today's question is, |
| 0:18.5 | is it ever too late to come out? Charlie and I are not terribly diverse, and we share many opinions |
| 0:23.1 | of life experiences. For example, we can both name and identify all 50 states in the US. |
| 0:28.4 | However, there are some pretty big differences. For example, Ben has been to Michigan, and I have |
| 0:33.1 | not. Right. Super crazy. Big difference. Charlie, why have you never been to Michigan? |
| 0:39.3 | I don't really have ties to Michigan, and it's, I don't know, I just never went to Michigan. |
| 0:44.6 | But my mom just married, about a year ago, got remarried, and he's from Michigan. |

| 1:05.8 | and then there's a roundabout. Oh, is it like a Texas turnaround? I don't quite know what that is. |
| 1:10.8 | Have you been in Texas? Sort of. I've been to El Paso a number of times. |
| 1:14.4 | Does that count? Not according to some people. Anyway, what's your favorite state to recognize? |
| 1:20.5 | To recognize on the map? Missouri. It's my home state. With the little thing ding-dong |
| 1:26.1 | It's called the boot heel. Oh, yeah? Yeah. Oh, it's lovely. What's yours? |
| 1:30.7 | My favorite zone out. It is a very lovely look and say, I don't know what I thought about it. |
| 1:35.2 | I think Texas has a nice shape. I feel like Kentucky's kind of fun too. |
| 1:39.5 | Oklahoma with, anyway. Yeah, we shouldn't stop. Okay, and FD. |
| 1:43.7 | We would like to provide a variety of voices and perspectives. So today we're joined by Megan Decker. |
