John Fugelsang is probably the only person on Earth who has grown up the son of a Franciscan brother and Catholic nun, gotten caught with medical marijuana and hosted "America's Funniest Home Videos" (but we'll have to check with Bob Saget to be sure).
He's collected his experiences in the stage memoir "John Fugelsang: All the Wrong Reasons," which went up off-Broadway earlier this year and comes to Miami Beach for the 3rd annual South Beach Comedy Festival.
Why has his life been so eclectic? "It's the outsider status," he says. "I grew up too liberal for the Christians and too Christian for the hipsters." He adds, "I did this show to bring back the Bible from the creeps to bring back the flag from the hypocrites."
