Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions of self-harm and grief. If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts, please dial 988 for immediate support.

Welcome to a new chapter of Another Week in the Books. This week, Spike Lou and Kieron are joined by a special guest—Chaz, co-host of the upcoming podcast Best Episode Ever. The trio opens with a light conversation on television and a viral photo that had social media talking, before shifting gears into a deeper discussion.

They touch on Wallo’s recent comments about supporting Black businesses—were his words out of line, or right on point?

But the heart of this episode lies in the conversation around grief—how it feels when you're in the thick of it, how to talk about it with those around you, and how healing often begins with honesty. It’s raw, real, and meant to remind you that you’re not alone.

If you are grieving and need someone to talk to, please call 866-903-3787.

We appreciate you for listening. Let’s try our best this week.
