How can you feel sorry and grateful at the same time? I'm sure the Germans have a word for it. Lauren Shippen joins Kyle to discuss this odd feeling along with relationships and vulnerabilities.

Two podcasts of hers that I'd like to highlight are:The Bright Sessions - https://www.thebrightsessions.com/season-one - a science fiction podcast that follows a group of therapy patients. But these are not your typical patients - each has a unique supernatural ability. The show documents their struggles and discoveries as well as the motivations of their mysterious therapist, Dr. Bright. Passenger List - https://passengerlist.org - A missing plane. A cabin full of suspects. A search for the truth.
