I Needed to Feel at Home in my Home (Ep. 56 - Matilda)
My guest this week is John, whose religious upbringing made coming out a painful experience. After a few attempted runaways, he was finally old enough to move out of the house for real -- but being on his own turned out to be harder than he thought, and for a while he felt like he'd failed as an adult. But his eyes were opened by a chance re-discovery of a movie he loved as a kid, and a lesson he'd forgotten as he grew up: that adults tend to be wrong.
