Chonda Pierce has made a career out of turning heartache into laughter, but this time she's telling the parts of the story that were never funny. Nine-time Emmy winner David Sams sits down with the award-winning comedian, TV host, and actress for a candid conversation about the pain behind the punchlines. Chonda opens up about growing up with a bipolar father, losing two sisters and her husband, her stay in a psychiatric hospital, and the estrangement that kept her from her grandsons for over a decade, along with the unexpected reunion that finally happened at a Cracker Barrel. She also shares how Christian counseling, forgiveness, and a hard-won sense of humor helped her heal, and offers hope to anyone walking a similar road. Chonda's book, "Life Is Funny Until It's Not," is available now. This episode first aired in June 2024.
