Marlon’s immediate “You’re too young” when Josh said he lost his parents really hit. He was willing to joke but also became real so quickly.

"Deep pain makes for great artists." "I hope that you felt seen, and thank you for seeing me." I thought I was only going to laugh on this episode. Marlon Wayans is so insightful.

I so appreciate Marlon sharing how his child’s transition helped him heal. I experienced the same blessing with my son’s transition after some mighty tribulations in my life.

I love how he set him up to talk about Mula mush just so he could bring it out and impress him. That’s professional interviewing at its peak
