Anjelah Johnson-Reyes joins me for a blunt conversation on comedy, mental health, juggling religion with sexuality, and everyone hating each other over politics. Anjelah opens up about her time as an NFL cheerleader for the Oakland Raiders, performing at Super Bowl XXXVII, playing the iconic Bon Qui Qui on MADtv, and the crazy ups and downs of her 20-year comedy career. Anjelah reveals how she went from never wanting kids to battling infertility to her unexpected pregnancy. Anjelah jokes about how her background as a Christian Mexican and Native American plays into her comedy, why finding gratitude is important, and we dive into her own podcast, Funjelah!
