Cat Alvarado: Sex and Sensibility

We’re not saying emotions aren’t real, or valid, but might they also just be … digestive issues? That’s one of Cat Alvarado’s theories. Cat is not a dietician. She’s a comedian, a self-styled Latina misfit, and a former teen bride (which she says may have happened on a sugar high). We talk about getting kicked out of church, reconciling sexuality with spirituality, and the acceptable number of people one can admit to sleeping with.
Cat Alvarado has over 2 million views on YouTube’s Reel Rejects, was featured on Buzzfeed’s Tasty Channel, as well as the PBS show First Nations Comedy Experience. She hosts the comedy podcast Villains of History @villainsofhistory and has performed at some of the top comedy festivals in North America. Her debut album Off-White is available on Spotify.
