This week, we’re asking you to bring two things: tissues and a Budweiser. In this episode, Jessica shares the heartbreaking news that Denny’s dad, “Papi,” passed away unexpectedly.

This was not an easy episode to make, but it was an important one. We talk about the kind of love grandparents bring into a family, and what it feels like when that love is suddenly gone. We get into the conversations no one prepares you for: how to tell your child that someone they love has died, whether kids should go to funerals, and how to help them through something we’re still trying to understand ourselves. If you’re caring for someone who’s sick, if you’ve experienced loss, or if you’re just trying to figure out this whole life thing, you are not alone.

We’re cracking a cold Bud for Papi, and for all the grandparents who are the heart of the family, this one’s for you ❤️
