Clark interviews British-American Olympic athlete, actor, and dog dad Gus Kenworthy. Clark asks Gus about his friendship with friend of the pod, Adam Rippon. Gus discusses what it was like growing up in a small but liberal town in Colorado. Gus shares how afraid he was to come out growing up, and how that affected his daily life. Clark asks Gus about his decision to publicly come out, which made him the first openly gay action sports athlete. Gus and Clark bond over both having the HRC Visibility Award. Gus breaks down his relationship to awards and how that’s changed over the years. Clark asks Gus about his ongoing journey with depression. Gus reveals he’s been writing and singing during quarantine. And finally, Clark and Gus discuss his soul balm—Cann, a cannabis-infused social tonic.
