Laughing Through Grief with Toni Lodge

Toni Lodge is a comedian, the author of ‘I don’t need therapy’ (and other lies I’ve told) and half of the Toni and Ryan podcast!  The perfect way to sum up today’s episode is ‘dark humour’. Toni is truly one of the funniest people we’ve ever met and she shares two of the most ‘vulnerable’ accidentally unfiltered stories we’ve ever heard.We speak about Toni’s rise to being one of the most popular podcasters in the country after being told that she wasn’t quite the right fit for the microphone when she was in radio. We speak about the different ways that people reach success in media these days and not having to check the same boxes that people used to. We take a bit of a behind the scenes tour into how podcasting actually works, how it’s monetised, who owns what etc. We speak about: The dynamics of relationships when you work with one of your closest friends Choosing to be child free and finding peace with that decision Grief can look different to what we expect it to Feeling like it was really hard to casually speak about her mum after she passed away Toni wants people to stop saying “sorry” when someone passes away Achieving things after losing a parent and wanting to be able to tell them Handling grief and sad things in general with humour creates a split crowd Writing down your non negotiables - 5 things that you will not leave this life without achieving You can find more from Toni on her Instagram  and her podcast  You can watch us on Youtube Find us on Instagram Join us on tiktok Or join the Facebook Discussion Group Tell your mum, tell your dad, tell your dog, tell your friend and share the love because WE LOVE LOVE!
