Reasons to be Cheerful with Ed Miliband & Geoff Lloyd
News:Politics
Hello! This week we're speaking to comedian, actor and author Cariad Lloyd who's on a crusade to help us become better at talking about death and grief. Although it might not seem like the most cheerful of topics, Cariad believes that there's a lot of hope and optimism in thinking and talking about death. We discuss why the five stages are a load of twaddle, how there is no 'right way' to deal with your grief and what to say (and what not to say!) to someone who's grieving.
Plus: Geoff and Ed’s telepathy reaches new levels... for the first time in the pod’s history, they have the same reason to be cheerful!
