#19 - How Pop Culture Can Help Us Heal with Becky McCoy

In a surprisingly upbeat episode, Mary and her friend Becky McCoy tackle the topic of grief. They talk about grief as it's portrayed in pop culture, and how pop culture can help a person heal from loss or grief. Based on the amount of laughter in this episode, Mary and Becky either have a fantastic perspective on these topics...or they're just big weirdos who love talking about sad things. Tune in and then tell us which you think it is!
