Mortified Pride Edition 2026

As we celebrate Pride in Baltimore, this edition of Mortified features childhood and adolescent archives exploring sexual and gender identity, coming out, and other LGBTQ+ stories.

Mortified Baltimore, produced by Alex Hewett and Adam Ruben, stars everyday adults sharing their most embarrassingly real teenage diary entities, poems, love letters, lyrics, and locker notes…in front of total strangers.

Hailed as a “cultural phenomenon” by Newsweek, this is a comic excavation of the strange and extraordinary things we created as teens.
