One performance. One confession. One family facing the unimaginable.

This week on Out of Respect for…, BeBe Zahara Benet sits down with CoCo Montrese, comedian Sampson McCormick, and producer Diego Wyatt for a powerful, honest conversation about LGBTQ+ representation in media: where we started, what’s changed, and what’s still not adding up. From groundbreaking moments that cracked the door open, to today’s visibility boom that sometimes feels more performative than progressive, the group gets into it. Who’s getting the spotlight? Who’s being left behind? And why does “representation” still come with so many asterisks?
