Loss and celebration dance together in this heartfelt episode as Kerry shares the peaceful passing of her mother. "Mom not only taught us how to live, but she taught us how to die," she reflects, finding beauty in farewell while honoring her mother's memory. The conversation shifts to birthday celebrations and childhood treasures—from vintage Fisher Price trains to nostalgic Wheel of Fortune watches—revealing how we cling to physical reminders of our past.

The true magic happens when our listener community takes center stage. Jason solves the longstanding mystery of "Felagone," confirming the traditional Pittsburgh dish that validates Chrisy's childhood memories. Meanwhile, our global audience continues to surprise us, with Pakistan emerging as our second-highest country for downloads. This unexpected cross-cultural connection leaves us wondering how our stories of American family dysfunction resonate so strongly halfway around the world.
