I remember what it was like to be closeted and it was terrible. When you're gay, your parents are sometimes your enemy, unfortunately. My grandmother being great was really important because my relationship was never at risk with her. And so that was great. But it's like, oh, God, why was it so fraught? I don't even understand. It was such a waste in my time and emotion.
For our final episode of 2022, Kara and Nayeema unabashedly dish out advice and answer questions you sent in (and some you didn’t). They tackle dating woes, difficult family dynamics, salary negotiations, choosing between career and travel and even give … fashion tips? In addition to listener questions, we hear from past guests and friends, including Kathy Griffin, John King, Rick Wilson, Mike Birbiglia and Walt Mossberg.
Stay tuned till the end to hear Kara’s ultimate escape plan — which involves an island and a donut shop.
