Made It Out

A Family Full of Gays w/ Heather Shaw

August 4, 2026·50 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Heather Shaw joins Mal for a nostalgic conversation about growing up in a family where every sibling eventually came out as gay and the unique closeness that can bring. Together, they reminisce about the shows, campaigns, and cultural moments that shaped how they understood themselves, from Glee to NOH8, and what it meant to grow up seeing queerness reflected back at them. This episode is a fun and comedic reflection on how family, representation, and community influence the people we become.Follow our guest at @heathershawiskidding, follow the show @madeitout and follow Mal @malglowenke.
