   Live Mistakes

   We decided to have the theme of our first ever episode recorded with the participation of a live audience be - mistakes! It was no accident; it guaranteed no matter what went wrong we would be perfectly on theme. Gratefully it all went exactly right, in a fumbling, not totally planned a little bit jagged and loose kind of way. Take a listen and see what you think.

   For Crying Out Loud

   In this episode Sascha and I tell stories of our experiences of public grief. We notice how different it feels to hold grief other's than it feels to spill our own and wonder about what conditions make grief feel safe enough or wild enough to come out into the open.
