This American Life is a great show, unfortunately I don't get to hear it as often as I'd like because of my schedule, but it's one of my favorites all the same. Anyway, my dad passed away unexpectedly at the end of May and since his wife had died a couple years before and I was the oldest son I had a lot of crap to take care of. This involved a lot of driving around, which is when I tend to listen public radio. I had just gotten done meeting with my grandmother and my brother for a kind of mutual depression lunch thing on Fathers Day and on the way back home This American Life was on and they were having people come on and talk about their dads and Fathers Day and whatnot. So Michael Ian Black comes on and is talking about his dad and how he died in an accident out of nowhere. It was nice because a lot of what he was talking about going through with his brother and the general reaction all around was exactly like what my brother and I were going through, even though he was a kid when it happened. So anyway, I guess my point is that This American Life is awesome and can pretty much always put me in a good mood. You can hear Michael Ian Black's segment from the Fathers Day show here.
