The multi-hyphenate comedian, actor, writer, and producer on a banner year and the way his support system changed his life
—and that was just what he accomplished in June. In his special, he opened up about being bipolar, something he’d never discussed onstage before, as well as his relationship with his adoptive parents, and more.
Booster has spoken in the past about his strained relationship with his parents, how his sexuality “became this thing in my life that we didn’t talk about” because of the evangelical lifestyle he was raised in. When his father died in 2021, Booster said he “regretted never being able to introduce him to somebody or figure out where we stood about that part of my life.
In working through his strained relationship with his parents, though, Booster says it “really emphasized how important the people in my life [were] that I had chosen to be around me,” he said. “A lot of queer kids learn earlier in life is that your family sometimes cannot be everything for you,” he says, “so you have to find the people who can pick up the slack.”
