Lately, we've witnessed a wave of significant deaths, or things barely clinging to life: TikTok, filmmaker David Lynch, anti-gay crusader Anita Bryant, bodybuilder Chris O’Donnell, PrEP, Marriage Equality, democracy, the U.S. dollar, the Golden Globes, The Village People and yes, even Snoop Dogg’s career.
But, as Florence + The Machine wisely reminds us, it’s always darkest before the dawn. Change often comes with chaos, upheaval, and a little bit of existential dread. So, take a deep breath, focus on the solutions, and remember: together we can overcome anything, especially when everything feels like it’s falling apart.
Today, we celebrate 20 years of podcasting as we launch of our 21st season with a special guest: Chicago comedian Dan Cass, known for his razor-sharp takes on relationships.
