If you're a longtime listener to Weirdly Helpful, you probably know that Jonathan Goldstein is my hero. He hosts what I think might be the best podcast of all, Heavyweight. Every episode starts with a real person and something from their past that has stayed with them, and then Jonathan gets involved to help people finally have conversations or closure that they never thought they'd have.

I hope you love it as much as I do!
