Young & Bereaved Podcast

We're in the sweet spot between the two year anniversaries of our mommy deaths (Maddie in May, Quinn in June). So we thought... time to break out the microphone and record smtn. 

I had to pay 100$ to renew our hosting subscription to post this episode, so I have a strong feeling we're going to keep recording for the next 365 days. Smell ya next week!

We used two microphones to record this episode!! did someone say.... sponsors?!?!

There's nothing like taking time out of your busy life to slog through the emotional trenches of sorting your mom's Ann Taylor Loft v-neck collection.

This episode is (kinda) about sorting through your dead person's belongings.

The solution is to start looking within the retirement age bracket for eligible bachelors. Otherwise, learn how to cosplay Regular Girl With Living Mom™.

Ok, hurry!!! Go leave us a review on Apple Podcasts stating if you prefer the 2005 Keira Knightley Pride & Prejudice adaptation, or the BBC six-part Pride and Prejudice adaptation. This is obviously both extremely important and extremely relevant. 

 

We're back and it's a good one! We start with A+ excuses, then roll into dunking on our brothers and complaining that once your mom dies... even when life is good.... it also still sucks?

Yes, this one was a little late, but... DID YOU LISTEN TO IT?!

 

Two totally cohesive topics in this one: doggy grief and reading reviews of movies where someone (usually the mom) dies... just like peanut butter and jelly, baby. Oh...  and we finally share the woodshop update yall have been waiting for. 

 

This episode is inspired by the hilarious podcast Beach Too Sandy, Water Too Wet. It's our #1 recommendation for the week:

A pitch for Buzzfeed:
You know your mom is dead when.... 

- your kitchen has transformed from a cozy, inviting space to a sad room without bread or clean forks

- you've ghosted three therapists 

- you skip ahead in every book you read (oh wait i've always done that)

We're back discussing how the deaths of our moms last year no longer excuse our shitty day-to-day behavior. Bummerrrrrrrr.

Temperatures have plummeted and winter is quickly approaching... so we start this episode in the most logical way: 2 minutes of running a loud space heater in the background, and then a quick pivot into UGG boot chatter.

 

We also discuss movies/books that are low-key and high-key grief canon: Fleabag, Harry Potter, Kick-Ass. There. Those are the recommendations.

Welcome to season 2!!!

A new season!? Isn't that's what podcasters do when they unceremoniously disappear for months and then randomly return?! Or... just us?!

 

Thank you for your patience. We're glad to be back.  (*pause for sincerity*)

Thank you for all the support! 

I was going to title this episode "dating advice," but that would be too misleading. We don't get into dating advice TOO too much... but let the record state: we certainly get into it. Mostly this ep is thoughts from the trenches of year two. Oh... and peacock updates.

 

Could you please leave us a review on itunes? or actually I think they call it "apple podcasts" now... anyways, can you leave us a review there? I'd appreciate it. bonus points if it mentions the hunger games.
