We all have rage, and if you don’t think you have it, don’t worry we’ll help you find it. And once you find it, we’ll also help you deal with it. This podcast is the intersection of all the life things (family, love, politics, sports, driving, loud chewing) and rage. Hosted by comedians Tara Erickson and Ebar, they talk to guests (ranging from neuroscientists to divorce experts to athletes to a neighbor) about how rage factors into their various areas of expertise. When they’re not doing that, they’re listening to calls from the rage hotline, screaming into a pillow or checking in with the show’s producer Friendy Wende who’s likely telling them to move on.

  • Caregiving In America | The Hidden Crisis

    Caregiving In America | The Hidden Crisis
    Mar 4 2026

    Caregiving is holy work. In America? It’s also a fast track to exhaustion, debt, and invisibility. Dr. Erin Kent (UNC-Chapel Hill) breaks down the policy failures that leave families drowning, why we are all “caregivers-in-waiting,” and why it’s time to stop calling caregivers heroes and start cutting them actual checks. Also, we give a status check on 6-7 and how to avoid being an Unc.
