Whether you were the only girl on the football team, the only jock at robotics camp, or you just could never find anyone who appreciated your action figures enough, we’ve all felt like the weird kid at some point in our lives. Join comedians Carly Montag and Emily Walsh as they ask their guests about any time in life they felt like the odd one out. New episodes out every Monday!
This week we are joined by Sheria Mattis! Sheria Mattis is a comedian, writer, and actress. She has written for Reductress, Netflix is a Joke, Leslie Jones, Fran Drescher, and Abby Terkuhle. She is the co-host of the Gay Shame Comedy Show as well as the Semi-Woke Podcast! Make sure to check her out!
In this episode, we discuss growing up in Brooklyn, going to boarding school, being the target of racism, pursuing theater and creative writing, school safety, being a queer black woman, and so much more. You won’t believe the discussion we had about Sheri’s experiences feeling targeted. Give this episode a listen!
