Alone Being a Jewish Kid in a Christian Choir with Ely Kreimendahl

This week we are joined by Ely Kreimendahl! Ely is a standup comedian, writer, and podcast host. She is also a psychotherapist, specializing in working with LGBTQIA individuals, artists, and trauma/PTSD. Make sure to check out her podcast Shame Spiral and stand up show Gay Shame! In this episode we discuss growing up as one of the only Jewish families in her Chicago community, trauma jokes, Bat Mitzvah themes, writing letters, being a theater kid, going to film school, and so much more. You don’t want to miss our discussion about how Ely wasn’t allowed to go to certain colleges that were “too queer.” Give this episode a listen!
