A quick warning There are curse words that are unbeeped in today's episode of the show.
If you prefer a beeped version, you can find that at our website, thisamericanlife.org.
I think we all have people in our lives who we love, but there's no talking to them.
They have their way of seeing things or doing things.
It's hard to take.
And no matter how you try to talk it out, it goes nowhere, doesn't get solved, even if they also want things to change.
We're devoting our entire show today to a story like that.
It's from Zach Mack, who's a reporter, and the story is about him and his dad and how they both wanted to mend a rift that had grown between them that lasted for years.
But they couldn't figure out how until Zach's dad offered a very surprising way out.
That's going to be our whole show today.
His dad's unusual solution and how it played out.
That's all I'm going to say for now.
From WBEZ Chicago, CIS American Life, I'm Ira Glass, and with that, I turn things over to Zach.
