This week Cariad talks to stand-up comedian Ed Byrne, about his younger brother, Paul. Paul died at the age of 44, following complications from Hodgkin's Lymphoma and previous damage to his liver. I spoke to Ed just three months after Paul had passed away, so this a very raw and fresh conversation about early grief. As ever we talk about grief, being in a music video and who gets the jokes.
You can find out more about Ed and his gigs at https://edbyrne.com and you can follow him on twitter @MrEdByrne. You can follow the Griefcast on Twitter + Instagram @thegriefcast.
Griefcast is hosted by Cariad Lloyd, edited by Kate Holland, recorded remotely in Cariad's living room, artwork is by Jayde Perkin and the music is provided by The Glue Ensemble. And remember, you are not alone.
Cariad's book, You Are Not Alone, is published by Bloomsbury Tonic and available for pre-order now.
