ozibuco well i am fairly average and watched these shows when i was cornered ..no sport of interest left unseen , no new news , and open to witness deviations that would confirm my opinions and head off for an early night ..but instead was left in awe of courage at least , and stuff not harmful to others .. feeling i have much to understand but happier for the experience , thanks
randomguy-81388 The title of the show says it all. Though some hard topics are covered such as suicide, every one of the participants openly shares and answers questions you may not have thought about but find yourself wanting the answer to.Our society could do with a little more understanding of those around us which have been dealt a different hand. This show pushes a lot of barriers and really does hit hard at times.
koen-56 No matter the particular subject of each episode, I find myself responding in a similar way to this show and its brave stars. Each episode a particular 'minority' is allowed, and courageous enough, to reveal sometimes very personal aspects of their lives to the audience. I always learn something I didn't know, often feel a tear for how people are treated by others and always get a laugh. The world could do with more of the understanding that this show engenders.
