About this episode
Think about the person who gave you hope when you needed it most. Somebody did. Maybe they said one sentence and never knew it mattered. Harvey Milk built an entire movement on it at a time when hope was in very short supply. Joe and Rya trace what happens to people when hope runs out, and what it takes to put it back. Is there someone in your life right now who needs the hope you were given?
This episode discusses hopelessness and suicide. If you are struggling, the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline is available 24/7 by call or text at 988.
