For Mother's Day, Lorraine & Trish take a deep dive into motherlove in all its forms. The duo meet journalist and political commentator Molly Jong Fast to discuss her moving new memoir chronicling her mother Erica Jong’s descent into dementia at the same time her husband Matt was diagnosed with cancer. She talks to the duo about childhood trauma, growing up with the celebrated feminist and author of Fear of Flying, Erica, who she describes as an alcoholic narcissist, as well as her own battle with drug and alcohol addiction in her teens. Find out how Molly broke the cycle to become the mother she always wished she’d had, her advice for looking after a parent with dementia and what it means to forgive. Plus: Is your heart younger than you & the mystery of the missing airpods is finally solved.
