In this episode of Hot Mess, hosts comedian Alec Mapa and Dr. Matthew Dempsey get deep with Emmy Award winning comedy writer Bruce Vilanch – the brilliant voice behind the Oscars and iconic stars like Bette Midler and Whoopi Goldberg. They discuss a range of issues from being gay in Hollywood, the Vietnam war draft, and the Covid19 pandemic and how radical acceptance has become a necessary tool in their lives. While radical acceptance teaches us tolerance skills designed to keep trauma from turning into suffering, they playfully talk about gay cruises, why one of them recently pooped their pants (download this podcast to find out which one) and the ways they cope with painful issues. For lots of laughs and tips on accepting what you can’t change – tune into this HOT MESS today.
