2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: If you missed it, our executive producer Brad came out

3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,360
Speaker 1: this week on the show as bisexual. Yeah I was.

4
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:11,400
Speaker 1: I'm actually really proud of you, Brad, because watching you

5
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:13,239
Speaker 1: just tell your story and you're like a rough and

6
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 1: tough dude, right, and not a lot affects you and

7
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 1: you just brush things off. So like watching you tell

8
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:19,880
Speaker 1: your story and like seeing that emotion, it's like wow,

9
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,079
Speaker 1: thinking about everybody in the past who's had to do

10
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: it and like go through that, who's had similar emotions

11
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 1: like that, it's just like damn, Like because you are

12
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 1: a little bit older than yeah, you know, and coming

13
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 1: out as buy and like it would just be a

14
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:33,919
Speaker 1: very hard thing. So it just like kind of hit

15
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 1: me actually watching you express that. It was actually one

16
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 1: hundred times more difficult than I thought it was. And

17
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,880
Speaker 1: it makes me feel for everybody before and everybody after,

18
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 1: and this whole month is just that much more important

19
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, It's just a calendar month, right,

20
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 1: It's like who cares? But I think a lot of

21
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: people are gaining the courage to do this stuff this month,

22
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: And I'm really excited about that for them, but it

23
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 1: isn't easy, even when you think you're rock solid. Yes,

24
00:00:55,400 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 1: I was. I'm sorry, it's not the time trying to

25
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 1: hide him from the microphone. I literally tried to hide

26
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: my mouth from the microphone. You said, rock I'm just like, no,

27
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 1: it's not all the time. I'm sorry. I find everything funny.

28
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 1: It's inappropriate, not bad, no disrespect though. One of the

29
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 1: more weird things that I've discovered is now I went

30
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 1: to like this store and there was a guy cashier,

31
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 1: and I was like, he doesn't think I want to

32
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 1: like hang out with him? Does he? Like you were saying, weird, Like,

33
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: now that it's out there, I was like, do I

34
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 1: have to worry about people thinking that I now want

35
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: to everybody? Yeah, that would be an interesting situation because

36
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: you know, I've never been by, so I don't know

37
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: how it feels, obviously, But that would be weird though,

38
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 1: because yeah, you would think about especially after you first

39
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: come out and people know this about you. Now you're

40
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 1: going to be self conscious about it, right because you

41
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: know it's a thing. Now You're like, everybody that you

42
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: talked to is like, now they know that I'm by,

43
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: does everybody I talk to you now, I think I'm

44
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 1: hitting on them because I don't want all of them

45
00:01:55,880 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 1: any advice from Christian and Bennett on anything as far

46
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: as coming up, because both of you guys, and it's Christian,

47
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: are not by They're definitely not bad. I'm as gay

48
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 1: as a two dollar bill. And if you know anything

49
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,839
Speaker 1: about two dollar bills, Wow, you're looking like I don't

50
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: get it. I don't get it. I don't either. I

51
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: don't get it two dollar bills again, because it's like,

52
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: I just remember hearing that when I was a kid,

53
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 1: and I was like, maybe, like God, he is gay

54
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 1: as a two dollar bill, And I was like me,

55
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 1: I know you're like I would say, I think this

56
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: is like a very exciting point for anybody who's coming out,

57
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 1: whether it's your sexuality or anything about yourself, come into

58
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,839
Speaker 1: terms with who you are. It's exciting, it's difficult, it's

59
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 1: exciting because now you have the freedom to be exactly

60
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 1: who you want to be, and you have like the

61
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 1: freedom to explore that. And you know, anybody in this

62
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 1: moment in time that has anything to say to you,

63
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,119
Speaker 1: bred or anyone else that's coming out, it should even

64
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 1: matter because it's about you being proud of who you

65
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 1: are and who you're going to be. I think that's

66
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 1: a really great don't be happy about yourself, be mindful

67
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: about not taking on the negative energy from other people,

68
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: right and being happy in your own skin and being

69
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 1: comfortable with who you are, no matter what you are

70
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 1: and your preferences on anything, who you like, who you

71
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 1: don't like, whatever. Being comfortable in your own skin is

72
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: really really freeing. If you actually are just the way

73
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,080
Speaker 1: you want to be all the time and you're proud

74
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: of who you are, it is an amazing feeling. Nobody

75
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: should ever shame anybody for being just themselves and who

76
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: you love, whatever how you are. If you are proud

77
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: of yourself for being who you are, just be proud

78
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,640
Speaker 1: of yourself, no matter who you love. And congratulations to

79
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: our producer. Can I give a bit of advice really

80
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: quick to the memories that you have from that coming

81
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: out day are never going to go away. And that's

82
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 1: what sucks because I got pulled out of the closet

83
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: and it was a horrible, horrible thing. I am excited

84
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: and happy for you that you got to kind of

85
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: do it on your own terms, but it does break

86
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: my heart that you didn't receive necessarily the response you want,

87
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: which is ridiculous. However, it doesn't last forever. The memories

88
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 1: will be there, but you get stronger and tell you

89
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: that you do and that sad memory can become actually

90
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 1: a happy memory for you personally. To be like, that

91
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: didn't break me the night I came out really really rough,

92
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: horrible conversations with my parents, who have never been anything

93
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: but loving and supporting, and they just wanted to find

94
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: out how they could do that in that moment that

95
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: was years ago. I'm to this day, I've done nothing

96
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: but get closer with my parents. So just be optimistic

97
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,479
Speaker 1: that you know, those who maybe weren't showing you the

98
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,720
Speaker 1: love that you needed it when you needed it, they'll

99
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: come around. Christian's dad actually like calls them every night

100
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,720
Speaker 1: to say good night. I'm literally thirty years old and
