Welcome back to All The Feelings, the podcast where adulthood means pretending you know how to say sorry and hoping lasagna can fix emotional devastation. This week, Pete and Tommy dissect the modern apology: why “I’m sorry if you were offended” is a disaster, and how real apologies require actual specificity, remorse, and the superhuman courage to say, “Yeah, I messed up.”Then, Pete shares what happens when life hits hard—specifically, the loss of his father—and how sometimes the only thing that makes a dent in the pain is a well-timed pizza, not a well-worded condolence. Turns out, nobody teaches you how to support a grieving friend, and “Let me know if you need anything” is about as helpful as an escape room with no exits. Show up, do something practical, and skip the TED Talk.Stick around for Feeling Friends—your reminder that supporting the show is the easiest emotional win you’ll have all week.Become a Feeling Friend!Help us keep the precinct weird: allthefeelings.funGet early access, bonus content, stickers, and the satisfaction of supporting emotional democracy for only $35 a year.
