My therapist once told me that we often give our family more leeway when they hurt us because they're our family and we're supposed to love them, but instead, we should really be holding them to a higher standard of respect because we're supposed to love each other. That really stuck with me for a long time

[@thescoobymike]

Damn… this got me thinkin

[@kaitlynatown]

“God size wall” very profound

[@janettemartin4604]

How PROFOUND and extremely well spoken! He is BRILLIANT! This was very powerful!

[@darthlazlo]

Best quote I have heard is, “it is growing up a minority in a household that is not from the same minority group”.

[@GoodFilms28]

Respect this man Jerrod Carmichael. Brilliant mind too.

[@Shantellywashington]

This was sooooo personal wow. I didn't think he would be this real with the situation down to the family text messages. I'm sorry society is very weird to people who are different. I think with time your mom would come around. it's just a shock to everyone. You're still the same person who has made amazing tv content. The day the world realizes some people are just gay the better. I hope everyone comes together ❤️

[@Gabe94dotcom]

True

[@andrewsharrock846]

I’m late but are we still doing “phrasing” or nah?

[@bjkj5487]

wow, I love how open Jerrod is being

[@1hourago843]

Wow! We love family, but they are also the ones to cut us the deepest sometimes. I hope his mom wakes up to realize that she has a wonderful son!

[@robertbentley3589]

Great to hear adults talking.

[@joygonsalves8840]

Wow. This was a very tender interview. Thanks for sharing.

[@RaiRaiBrown]

This is one of the best interviews I've heard from Howard Stern. I applaud Jerrod for his honesty, and his openness about his journey. There's so many valid points in this discussion.

[@ryanl775]

Bro def could portray young Dolph in a biopic😊

[@paymedouble]

Excellent interview

[@ralexand56]

That's some deep shit

[@dmjdmj]

Imagine trying to reevaluate something that so adamantly refuses you as a person. Speaks volumes of the hypocrisy and toxicity of religion. Breaks my heart.

[@futuresequence.]

It should be child abuse to involve children in religion.

"A BIG GAY MAN" had me rolling

[@christinareyes2963]

I pray he tells his mom everything he just told us and that she sees the bigger picture and let’s it go.

[@M3rchantofD34th]

I mean, he told his mom at the exact same time he told us.

[@queenmeedy67]

I hope his mom keeps on not accepting this mess & he let's it go & realizes he was just temporarily brainwashed by Hollyweird. Hopefully his mom will be able to pray it away

I'm gen x in the DEEP south from a VERY religious family and I have the better relationships with all the family members I grew under the older ones so I saw how they were raised and I was my own self the complete rebel and the younger ones ask will you still love me if I'm this or that and I tell them, my job is to love you not judge you, that's the message my Bible tells me.

[@nickbarcheck1019]

Good for him.

Religion gets people through the tough times...that religion caused in the first place🤦

[@redwatch.]

Good one.

[@Rbrace2]

Western civilization can thank a certain religion

[@vikkicarr3255]

It’s not about religion with his mom. It’s about obeying the Bible and her not compromising her faith for her son lifestyle. I’m sure she loves him nevertheless.

[@t.styles2k202]

Perfectly said

[@robertkirchner7981]

How is "obeying the Bible" not about religion?

[@calvee1100]

Let the religion go. There's no evidence it's real anyway.

[@user82938]

Except that would make God mad. I wouldn't risk it.
