Oh, Good Grief!
Oh, Good Grief! is a weekly podcast about grief — but not the solemn, polished, “careful of our words” version. This show is loud. It’s messy. It’s honest. Because grief is loud, and messy, and let’s be honest… it sucks. Let’s talk about it!
Every week, Taylor Parise will bring on a guest with lived experience in loss to have real, unfiltered conversations about what grief actually feels like — the awkward parts, the anger, the humor, the things people don’t say out loud.
The first 45 minutes are interview-style, diving straight into the nitty gritty. No tiptoeing and no clichés.
The end of our episodes will be dedicated to funny stories, chaotic memories, and the moments of laughter that somehow exist alongside heartbreak — because grief doesn’t cancel humor. In fact, humor, for me, has helped in the healing process.

In this honest episode, host Taylor Parise is joined by her sister, Amber Howard, for a conversation that blends grief, humor and real-life perspective. Despite their 18-year age gap, the two share a deep bond shaped by the experience of losing their mom to cancer and the very different ways they’ve navigated that loss.
Together, they unpack the well-meaning but often unhelpful things people say when someone is grieving. From phrases like “RIP” to comparisons and comments about being “strong,” Taylor and Amber explore why these words can miss the mark — and what empathy can look like instead.
But this episode isn’t just about what not to say. It’s also a celebration of their mom’s life, filled with funny, personal stories that capture what she meant to the two sisters.
Raw, relatable, and at times unexpectedly funny, this conversation offers insight and a reminder that grief doesn’t look the same for everyone.
