I'm so happy to have my favorite comedian Anjelah Johnson Reyes back on the podcast talking about her new book Who Do You Think I Am? (that releases TOMORROW!), her new reality show, and what she's been learning lately. We both got teary at a point in the convo so let's just say it's a good one. :) (And FYI we jump into some pretty deep conversation about femininity and sexuality, so let's put a PG13 label on this one? May be best to listen without #miniBFFs in earshot.). . . . .Have a question about prayer?
