Absolute favorite podcast
I’ve been listening to this podcast off and on for the last few years and always love coming back to it. I’ve laughed, cried, downloaded & shared particularly impactful episodes to share with loved ones. It really does an amazing job of presenting the intricacies of being human and harboring weight, often for a lifetime. Jonathan is an incredibly affable narrator with the best comedic timing I’ve ever witnessed. I’m starting to get down to just a handful of unplayed episodes and am panicking a bit that the next season appears to be a bit tentative. This podcast is truly healing to the spirit and I hope it comes back soon. Massive thank you to Jonathan and his team for providing these stories.
