Dying Laughing with Jessimae

Dying Laughing with Jessimae

Welcome to Dying Laughing, where we laugh in the face of loss and death because if you’re not laughing, you’re crying in a Marshall's fitting room while listening to Fleetwood Mac on repeat. You’re going to experience all kinds of loss in your life: a loved one, your job, your relationship, your pet (which is way worse than your relationship) and even your favorite necklace that your dad gave you (which your toxic ex definitely stole). You’ll even lose yourself from time to time. While all of this sounds brutal, it can also be beautiful. I call it ‘brutiful.’ Join me and some of my favorite human beings as we talk about the mess, the magic, and the meaning in our grief. Everything deserves a proper burial, even our dignity. I’ll be your grief guru through it all. Welcome to Dying Laughing with Jessimae. 💀🖤 Editing and promos by: Debbie Dellorso.🐿️ New show. New name. Same Jessimae.
