Ep 678- Deborah Unger Talks "The Longer My Mother Is Dead, The More I Like Her"

Deborah Unger joins us to talk about her bold and deeply personal solo show THE LONGER MY MOTHER IS DEAD, THE MORE I LIKE HER. After years in development, the piece dives into the complex, funny, and emotional relationship between a mother and daughter — and the unexpected clarity that can come with loss. It’s raw, reflective, and full of heart, bringing humor to the hardest truths about love, grief, and family. We talk about what inspired Deborah to tell this story on stage, the challenge of embodying both herself and her mother, and the lessons she’s learned about forgiveness and self-acceptance along the way. It’s a powerful, fearless conversation about art, healing, and the beauty of finally understanding the people who shaped us.
