Ep. 77: How Getting Older Changed Our Relationships With Our Parents

As kids, we seem to think our parents are infallible, but the older we get, the more we see their humanness. Many even have strained relationships with our parents, and growing up causes a few mind-fucks when it comes to understanding exactly why things went down the way they did. Danny, Jill, and listener-turned-guest, Nicole, talk about their own relationships with their parents, and how time gave them empathy to understand their parents in a way they never thought possible.
