[@charlieandryan]

The random tangents we went on have us rolling!!! 😂 So glad we could come on and share wayyyy too much!!! 😂

[@EllieJerwers]

You guys were awesome 👏 😂😃

[@19tams67]

I didn't know about you guys until this, now I'm headed over to become a new sub. And binge watch LoL ❤😂thanks for the laughs ❤

[@ninerjen1]

I enjoyed hearing you tell of your “coming out” stories and how you felt growing up. It is heartbreaking to hear what you went through but it might be good for others to hear. thanks.

[@amypittenger1641]

I was very glad you made an appearance. Would love to see more of you. And I know you are busy with your own things but it was a pleasure having you both here today

[@babrojobunch]

You guys were awesome!! I subscribed to ya’ll

[@briebrownn]

I'm so glad there will be a part 2! They are by far the best guests you've had and best episode yet! Love them so much 🩵

[@clover5313]

Excellent discussion ladies and gents!!! Charlie and Ryan were a joy to hear their perspectives!!!

[@JLee12589]

I could listen to Charlie talk all day! His wisdom, insights, and even his voice!

[@onnes608]

I am a gay guy who gave it all to be str8 till I was 28. I forced myself to walk, talk and act like a str8 guy and all of that while I was thinking of myself through everyone else's eyes. I was so depressed, anxious and I was in such a dark place. All my energy went into becoming someone else. In that darkness, I was living for the whole life the God himself sent me the most beautiful impuls of what is going to be a life changing experience. I realised that there is a plant medicine called ayahuaska and I felt such a strong call to go and heal myself. I am forever grateful that it found me before it was too late. I am 38 now and still recovering to be honest. I still have aspects that I am working on cause they were so strongly suppressed for such a long time...I felt so deeply both their stories and it was such a relief to be honest cause there is so many of us who go trough this.

[@PresleysMom]

@onnes608 Thank you for sharing your life's experiences and journey.

[@melrescuebar7496]

I’m not usually one to comment, but after seeing this episode I feel I must. I have enjoyed all of your podcasts, but this one was so fun & special. I can’t wait for part 2! Ryan & Charlie are awesome!! My next move is to subscribe to their KZbin channel and buy Charlie’s books because I need to know more. Way to go Fairly Odd Sisters! You’re producing incredible, informative, fun content. Pure gold!! 🎉❤

[@caliblue2]

Sarah and Ryan are both very beautiful people inside and out 💜 this should be viral for it’s content- I learned a lot! So cool to hear what it’s like to experience the aha moment and the joy of being free to be. Charlie brought the main character energy indeed 😘❤️

[@olivia2394]

been waitinggggg for this episode since the pod started. love this dynamic 😂😂 so sweet to see sarah and ryan’s relationship evolve.

[@debbiedavis265]

This is one of the best podcasts I’ve ever listened to too!. I’m fascinated with the Mormon religion and love to hear about it including all its glory and not so good glory. Hearing how your family didn’t discriminate your brother is so inspiring to know and it’s really blown my mind. Looking forward to next weeks episode. Well done Sarah and lo as this channel is amazing!. Love and best wishes from Debbie in Bristol uk xx

[@Louisescarr1972]

Brilliant podcast girls absolutely love it. And lo and Charlie have the same sense of humour. Ryan and Sarah have a brilliant honest open sibling relationship now and it's so nice to see their old wounds have heeled.

[@candaceflores1528]

Best podcast...i love Ryan and Charlie...i have a friend who grew up in Utah and is a Morman. His family and chrch shunned him. He became and addict. He has been sober for many years now and is a clinical psychologist like Ryan. His name is Paul and i love him to death...thankyou guys for your honesty...❤🎉❤

[@pomme800]

great episode!❤

[@laviniaambrosi9363]

Sarah saying "Help me get through this Lo" was sooooo sweet

[@lisawhite4736]

Sarah I love how your brother has married someone who is very outgoing and bubbly like Lo and Derek are. And Ryan is just so quiet and patient😂😂😂

[@PresleysMom]

This is one the best podcasts!! I appreciate hearing Ryan and Charlie's individual journeys and was so impressed by all that Charlie shared being a clinical psychologist. You both touched on many things that were light bulb moments. Im looking forward to Part II. P.S. Please make an effort to let Charlie speak more. 😊

[@missieszentes9858]

The rude comments n the unfollow comments made here is absolutely appalling... i pray you all find God's grace n love in ur lives n pray your picture perfect life never has an ink splotch in it... i commend the strength and determination that both Charlie n ryan and everyone who has overcome obstacles and grown in gods grace and love. Let haters hate. Keep loving and living healthy happy lives!!!!

[@vildayoga]

I love how Sarah asked them to say things about each other that they would never say and it turns in to a full on Sarah-roast! Bam! Right back at her!😂😂😂

[@lilyyybethhh]

Why am I crying about Amanda too?! 🥲🫶🏼 rip 🕊️👼🏻

[@reneewilson1753]

Just have to say to Sarah, you are never crying alone. I am so emotional with certain subjects and I am usually crying before you. It is healthy and you need to embrace it as much as possible. Just my two cent...love you guys!❤🎉

[@zoeygroat1560]

[@wendycostigan5497]

Best podcast ever!

[@HeatherCameron-s9o]

Absolutely loved this episode I laughed and cried. Loved hearing how open minded you both are and your family especially within the lds church. Happy pride Ryan and Charlie! 🌈 please come back for a part 2!!!

[@adrianaaa565]

Sarah, if you want to cry, cry. It is part of your personality. Stop trying to hold yourself back; crying is catharsis, it is relief, it is pureness. You don't need to feel ashamed of that. Empower your tears, girl! ♡ ... Btw, it is a little bit anticlimactic when you try to change the subject to stop crying. Hahaha.

[@s.k.midrano9784]

Religion has damaged so many.... But a personal relationship withGod the Holy Father thru Christ Yeshua... Is totally different...

[@SandyL0uise]

Living in sin has damaged millions more people.

[@sandyrohn1812]

So funny, really enjoyed them

[@CindyLuWho26]

Fabulous video! Wow!

[@danaboo88]

Yessss!!!! Positive. Loving. Genuine. Real. Gorgeous. All of you!!! Kisses all around🫶🏼💕✨🦋😘

[@Ich00senottogivein]

Nice to see the men being happy!

[@brianaamos8279]

Charlie and Ryan, my heart goes out to the both of you and I want to let you know that you are not alone. My brother was going through the same motions when he came out. And I want to thank you for sharing your life with us. My brother lives in Florida and I rarely get to see him and I miss him deeply. Please keep my brother in your prayers. His been struggling for a while now. I want to thank Lo and Sarah for having their loving family and friends on the podcasts.❤❤❤

[@BohoFreedom]

LOVE them!

[@tiarralee6910]

You guys are the shiz! 🥇❤️

[@MsCrazymomof3]

Love this episode. Charlie & Ryan and Lo & Sarah are a great combo. I laughed and cried. Such great questions and answers. ❤❤❤❤

[@ihaveseensuchthings]

The little plastic babies were originally created for Mardi Gras. Custom dictates that every party should have a king cake and every king cake has a tiny plastic baby hidden inside. The baby symbolizes the baby Jesus because of the connection to “King’s Day.” Whoever finds the baby while eating the cake becomes the “king” or “queen” of the evening’s festivities. 🥳

[@courtneyshelton6111]

Part 2 about the wedding!

[@hstar2946]

First of all…Ryan is absolutely gorgeous! Secondly…How could anyone disown their babies because of being gay I will never understand… I unconditionally love my kids and could never even think about that. You guys have been through some tough times. Living so long and being so worried about how everyone you love may react to your “secret” must have been so difficult! Love listening today. Great job lots of love

[@donnalwashburn]

The toenails are cracking me up!!

[@lizzydixxy411]

can I just say how happy I am to see this positivity?!? I was worried when I found out they were Mormons that they were judgmental conservatives. So refreshing to see people choose love over doctrine created by men 100 years ago.

[@tanyabrown3572]

I knew the guys would be awesome

[@jaclynstarkey9494]

I can’t look at Taylor Swift without seeing him now..😂😂😂

[@sofiejunk]

I love you guys SO MUCH MORE NOW, knowing that you are ally’s!!! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💗

[@marshawolfe2948]

Sarah You're Brother Is So Handsome He Could Literally Be In One Of The Super Heroe Movies ❤❤❤❤

[@CatCmdr]

Awesome! Congratulations on doing this podcast! God is Love. I believe we are here to learn to Love as He Loved us. 😊💙💜💙

[@breannchristine26]

Not Sarah making me cry!!
