My new NYC friend, Carmel Barsh, makes her Lit Hein (and podcast) debut. Carmel joins Lily as a newly single, straight-curious NYC comedian ready to share her thoughts on sexuality, geography and religion.

In this episode, Carmel and I discuss her coming out story and how she told her friends and family she is gay (it's not sad, don't worry). We also talk about men (trigger warning) and what her type would be now that she's straight curious. We also talk about the agony of being Jewish in the Brooklyn comedy scene and how we're not special.
