In this Episode, I step into the vibrant chaos of the 1980s—where MTV reshaped culture, friendships deepened, and family tensions simmered beneath the surface. Amid music, laughter, and rebellion, I reflect on growing up gay in Brooklyn, facing violence and finding strength through loyal friends and fierce maternal love. The episode shifts as the AIDS crisis emerges, marking a turning point in my world. With heartfelt tributes to LGBTQ+ heroes like Larry Kramer, Cleve Jones, and Harvey Milk, this episode honors the courage, grief, and activism that defined a generation—and shaped Murphy’s truth.
