I am feelings repressed, so I hack my crying. This will do it. This is a four-episode podcast that's an emotional investigation about the death of the host's older brother when they were kids. If you've ever experienced a loss that defines you, this is therapeutic.

Synopsis

How do you forget your favourite person in the world? Alex remembers everything about the day a speeding police car killed his brother. But his brother, alive? Those memories are lost. And now, 30 years later, Alex wants them back. In this emotional four-part series, Alex unearths his childhood grief — with help from family, friends, and a therapist who witnessed his brother’s death. What happens when trauma and memory collide? Sorry About The Kid is a deeply personal meditation on the losses that define us. Hosted by Alex McKinnon. Produced with Mira Burt-Wintonick (WireTap, Love Me).
