How Gay Hasidic Comedian Turned Trauma Into Punchlines (ft. Leah Forster)

Following up her initial interview, we go LIVE with famous Hasidic comedian, Leah Forster. After being outed and ostracized from her Ultra Orthodox family and community, Leah, who always felt silenced and repressed, details how comedy clubs and restaurants were forced to ban her from performing, how she took to social media and went viral, and ultimately, how she turned pain into comedy.
