On this week's ep Des chats to Comedian Laurie Kilmartin about loss. Laurie lost her mom at the beginning of the pandemic. Like Des she is not an adult orphan having lost her dad early last decade. She had turned her experiences losing her father into a show and a book so Des and Laurie have that in common. Its a wonderful chat about loss and grief and when the pandemic hurts you personally.
