About this listen

Days Like These is a cinematic storytelling podcast about the days that shape us. It is about the quiet days, the heavy days, the funny days, the lonely days, the tired, heartbroken, over-it-but-still-here days. It’s where truth meets tone. Where dark humor sits beside grief. Where faith lives in the subtext, not the sermon:

Not a sermon.
Not therapy.
Not self-help.

Just honest conversations about becoming, old with humor, heart, and no filters.


Because some days don’t need fixing...just feeling.
