Web decided to tell his story on Youtube as a way to promote his unpublished memoir (working title Fabulous at 45 Degrees - a reference to his scoliosis.) As a way of connecting with and supporting others going through their own challenges and difficulties fitting in, Web shares his take on being gay, born with one lung, scoliosis, working as a background actor in Hollywood, his first kiss, how he came out to his parents, life and what he’s still learning.
I brought Web on the show because of his unabashed way of just being Web. He is a delightful, happy person who lives a large life being authentically himself. That life is not without it’s challenges and we certainly explore those. I am thrilled that his partner in the The Web Heyliger Show and an established Youtuber in his own right, Temo, was able to join us.
Some of the snippets from our conversation include:
Boys playing with Barbies and wearing high heels
Self-acceptance
Being homeschooled
Living authentically
Too gay to sell real estate?
Web’s fascination with mega-star Jennifer Lopez, and the J-Lo dolls that travel the globe with him
The reality of the casting couch
Traveling with the Smile Train (smiletrain.org)

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
