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 deeply personal episode, host Taylor Parise sits down with her friend Makela Sorney for a conversation about the long-term reality of loss and how grief continues to evolve over time. Makela lost her dad when she was 18, and because the two were not on speaking terms when he passed, her grief has also been shaped by guilt, unresolved emotions, and complicated feelings that don’t always get talked about openly.
Together, Taylor and Makela discuss what it’s like to carry grief years later, the ways it can unexpectedly resurface, and how loss can change your relationships, identity, and outlook on life. They also touch on spirituality after loss, signs from loved ones, and Makela’s belief that her dad has shown up for her more in death than he did while he was alive.
Reflective with sprinkled with humor throughout, this conversation explores the complicated side of grief — the parts that are messy, ongoing, and impossible to tie up neatly.
