About this episode
This week on Reclaiming, we’re joined by the hilarious Sarah Silverman, whose career has been built on saying the unsayable—and making us laugh through the discomfort. In this intimate conversation, Sarah opens up about the quiet heartbreak of losing both her parents, the shame and humor of wetting the bed well into her teens, and the evolving landscape of comedy in a culture that’s constantly redefining its boundaries. With her signature blend of sharp intellect and raw honesty, she explores how pain shapes perspective and why vulnerability might just be the truest form of rebellion. It’s a candid, surprising, and deeply human episode with one of comedy’s most enduring provocateurs. And as a bonus, Monica makes another WAP-like discovery.
