Episode #24 of The Happiest Sad Person Podcast. Join me, Alessandra, as I open with another ankle injury update (I swear it connects to the rest of the ep lol), dwell on the influx of terrible tragedies lately  + question how the immense power that is human resiliency has come to be. This episode vacillates between me thinking that human beings will be the author of their own demise or very well might come to their own rescue and save the metaphorical day. :)

I’m back, baby. I know, I know. It’s been a minute. Well, a series of minutes. And I do extend my sincerest apologies.

No really, I do.

And this ep talks about where I’ve been, or lack thereof. What I’m doing now and what’s on the horizon. It’s a rebrand of sorts, and I hope you come along for the ride.

Sometimes absence does make the heart grow fonder, right?

But, seriously, thanks for sticking around or welcome if you are new.

Hope you like the ep!

A solo episode on film, who would have ever thought? I hit the depression that can come with birthdays, the power in getting older and what exactly (or inexactly) is my purpose. It's meta, it's honest. And hopefully it's coherent. :)

Also this episode ended early, but stay tuned for a nice long episode coming your way soon. In the meantime, here is me being raw and honest and authentic with you as my life on this day was a bit chaotic. Who knows, maybe you will relate a bit to the struggle. Because, as they say, (and honestly who is “they”?) the struggle is real.

Join myself, Ali Jacobs, my brother Nate, and a dear friend, Jack, for a deep dive on the 2020 election and what a Biden win means to us and for us. We do discuss the future of the Republican Party, ruminate on our dream candidates, and speak truth to power on what music can do for culture and the trajectory of politics. And we pitch a new show, tentatively titled, "Orange is the new orange."
