Joy and Grief Touch the Same Part of the Heart (Part 2): Popular Film and Grief with Angela Tabora and Erin Lim
"So they experienced this death. And then they all have to band together – ‘we're still going to make everything happen.’ That's kind of how I felt after my dad passed away; I'm just going to do everything that I need to do."
— Angela Tabora
This episode is part of a Breathing Wind miniseries titled Grief and Humor, co-hosted by Dara Kosberg and Sarah Davis. The Grief and Humor miniseries explores how humor allows people to get closer to their grief, explore it and better understand it, by creating a gateway into the hard feelings.
This is a two-part episode. In this episode, Part 2, Dara and Sarah talk with Erin Lim and Angela Tabora, co hosts of Bitch Talk Podcast about grief and humor we saw in Little Miss Sunshine and other films. If you haven’t listened yet, go back to Part 1, where we talk about our parents’ humor, grief and humor, and humorous movies that remind them of their loved ones who passed away.
