We also talk about his drag performances and celebrity impersonations. Things get candid as Glen talks about life in the LGBTQ and entertainment community as a sober man, his coming out, and what he’s learned from the business. And we get to the important stuff…like where he keeps his Emmys. We talk about it all!
