Many things are, in fact, not going to be okay at all. But on the advice of a wise therapist, the team behind Terrible Thanks For Asking is on a quest to find one okay thing about every day. Each morning, they’ll bring you a short story, essay, or interview about one thing to remind you that it might not all be so bad – even if some things are. Listen here!
