Kim Nario Returns (Playing her podcast at her grandmother's funeral)
Amber and Winston bring back a Dead Dad favorite. This week we speak to Kim Nario about the very recent passing of her grandmother.

Customer Reviews
Really great to listen to
I started listening to your podcast and have been really enjoying this! My husband lost his dad to cancer as well, and I would love for him to listen, too. I think anyone who has ever experienced a loss (which is everyone!) can absolutely identify with the podcast, and may even be helping listeners open up about their own grief. I also love the jokes and laughs. And Amber’s laugh in particular! Great job!
Dead Dad
Amber and Winston ride the ragged edge between humorous and heart-wrenching in their exploration of the grieving process. It's a deeply personal discussion of a topic that has, or will, affect all of us.
Intentional and powerful!
Love how intentional Winston and Amber are in unpacking grief by starting with their first experiences with it. We don’t experience these things in a vacuum, and they acknowledge that and honor it. Highly recommend!
