Gay Ex-Mormon Comedian Ryan Erwin (#274)
Manage episode 427849017 series 2476380
I’m kicking off a new series exploring the intersection of comedy, religion, and spirituality!
My first guest is Ryan Erwin, a gay ex-Mormon missionary turned clean comic. We talk about his idyllic Mormon childhood in Utah, his departure from Mormonism and exploration of other faiths, his introduction to comedy, and how he has ultimately found spiritual fulfillment in nature and everyday activities.
I appreciated Ryan’s humor, warmth, and grounded perspective, hearing how he finds meaning outside traditional religious structures, as well as how his comedy can be a vehicle for exploring profound, sometimes uncomfortable truths about faith and identity.
Highlights:
08:37 “Religious Residue”
22:12 The Power of Storytelling
33:18 Leaving Mormonism and Pursuing Comedy
45:03 Finding Spirituality in Nature and the Present Moment
57:06 Living in the Here and Now: Embracing New Experiences
Dry Bar Comedy Specials: Dry Bar Comedy - Ryan Erwin
