Comedian and author Zach Zimmerman joins Jameela this week to discuss his experience growing up in a conservative evangelical family, finding his own voice and sexuality, learning to still love his family despite drastic value differences, choosing antidepressants, the lie of "the perfect pound" making you more attractive, and more.
