As the year comes to a close, we’re sharing a conversation between Sinéad and writer, podcaster, and comedian Gaby Dunn from the start of the pandemic, plus, an update from Gaby on her current life in quarantine. The two talk about their shared experience as perfectionists, and how that is coming out amid a global pandemic. Gaby shares openly about how her early experiences as an outspoken kid paved the way to be shameless about her identity, relationships, and work later in life.  Transcripts available under each episode link at https://www.lemonadamedia.com/show/as-me-with-sinead-burke/ Stay up to date with us on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram at @LemonadaMedia.

We open Season 2 of Last Day with a tale of two Kevins. One is Sergeant Kevin Briggs, also known as the guardian of the Golden Gate Bridge. The other is Kevin Berthia, an Oakland native who drove to that bridge on March 11, 2005 with the intent of ending his life. This week, we tell the larger story behind a moment of intervention—what led up to it and what happened in the 15 years since. We’re also joined by Courtney Knowles, our advisor at the Jed Foundation (a nonprofit devoted to emotional health and suicide prevention), who’s here to poke holes in our narrative.   If you or someone you know is struggling emotionally or feeling hopeless, it’s important to talk to someone about it now.
