Family Ties...Sometimes Should Be Cut

from The Rage Pod · host The 8 Side

The holidays are over, everyone’s still exhausted and family rage is very much alive. In this episode we unpack holiday meltdowns, lost kids at Legoland, inappropriate childhood traditions, and the very real question of whether family deserves unconditional access to you. From cutting ties with toxic parents to redefining chosen family, we talk boundaries, guilt, emotional pain, and why “but they’re family” isn’t a good enough reason to suffer. If you skipped a gathering, set a boundary, or chose peace over obligation, buy yourself a drink, a blunt or a massage.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
