Death is an inevitable part of life, and yet it can be difficult and uncomfortable to talk about the process of grief amongst one's peers. In this podcast comedian and bereaved sibling Jordon Ferber helps shine some light into the darkest parts of our own existence and encourage a more open discussion about the effects of grief, and offers coping mechanisms to those suffering through open and honest conversations with other comedians and performers who have unique perspectives on the process of grief.

In this episode, I sat down with comedian Kirk Smith to talk about the difficulties of being a single father, trying to raise an autistic son after the death of his wife 5 years ago. We talk about the importance of being vulnerable onstage when discussing difficult topics, and the value of really connecting with an audience when doing so.
