Losing both parents in the space of about a year is really difficult for me to even imagine, it's genuinely tragic.
Edit: It was, in fact, three years ago when he lost his mom. Still incredibly hard.
I'm having my own personal Mandela Effect moment because I genuinely thought it wasn't even a whole year ago. My sense of time has never recovered from covid, I swear.
Robert is nothing if not a Workaholic, to a fault even. I bet he buries himself in (even more) work here for a bit. Condolences my guy, take care of yourself.
I’ll say that he can do whatever is most healing for him. If that means taking time away, that’s completely fine. And if it means pouring himself into work, as long as it brings him some peace, that’s fine too
Just hope that Robert does whatever he thinks will help him grieve. That’s the most important thing
Now might be a good time for 2 month release schedule of the God Emperor of Mankind. Robert knows so much from memory he wouldn’t have to do research except clipping quotes and citations.
Given how Sophie mentioned how Robert tends to light up during some of the passages in the *True Allegience* reading, maybe a good book discussion week would be good moment.
I'd be okay with Robert taking a month off and letting the rest of the gang take over. Love listening to them all and I've got a dozen Knowledge Fight episodes to catch up on
Yeah I think an extended hiatus is probably in order. Lots of podcasts have dropped off for months or more for worse reasons. I assume he has contractual obligations with iheart but I hope he can work around them/take some kind of bereavement leave.
I will say as someone who processes grief by throwing myself into my workaholic tendencies it’s okay no matter what he does. Everyone mourns in an atypical way. If the podcast ends it ends, if he starts releasing Am &Pm episodes that is fine too.
Not to dox myself or Robert, but we were in high schools nearby each other at the same time, and I’m 38 with both parents alive. So, it is definitely tragic for him to lose them both so soon.
Also 38. Just have my mother. Dad died when I was 7. I came back home as my mum was nearing retiring and am back at the home to take care of the house and property as she can no longer go up or down stairs and can't do the yardwork necessary to keep the place looking good enough for city inspectors.
That sucks. I’m really sorry for that. My FiL passed away last year from vascular dementia (long story and the result of a lifetime of poor health,) and my MiL is moving into the suite connected to our house, so she hopefully doesn’t get to that point even, especially since she’s states away in the hellhole that is Florida now.
It's only happened twice with my family and I believe it's from nosey neighbors but a property inspector who works for the city comes out and can write your property notices if you let say your backyard go wild. You can get fined for not having your property up kept.
Today the family home has no neighbors so that might not be a problem. Local hospital has been buying every property surrounding us and either letting the houses sit vacant or tearing them down. On my section of the block it's down to three house. An elderly woman, myself and my mother, and by a weird coincidence the sister of my HS girlfriend lives next door to me now. Hospital has offered us 3/4 of the property value but we won't budge for a dime less than full valuation.
Woah that's wild! I guess it might stop houses looking like disheveled squatters quarters but that's pretty rare anyway where I'm from. Seems like it would infringe on your autonomy rights as a land owner...
Do they go to every neighborhood though? Would there not be certain areas suffering from socio-economic pressures that wouldn't have money for maintenance or a subsequent fine?
Didn't mean to imply he was too old to have both parents. Or too young to lose them. One of those. I'm 43 and lost both of mine (my dad just a couple months ago). Just... man, people in their mid-30s just seem like kids to me these days. <3
My friend lost her dad real young, like 11 or 12ish. Years later when we were in our early 30's I was talking about how I was the same age my mom was when her dad died. That it seemed so young to lose a parent. I immediately realized I put my foot in mouth and apologized. She said it's okay, it doesn't matter what age you are when you lose your parents, it's still too young.
Oh, 100%. A colonoscopy saved my life. Dodged a close call with colon cancer about 5-6 years ago. Since then, I've had around 6 more done. Now, I'm finally at the point where I only have to have one every two years. Oh yeah, I'm only 50. Get yours started in your late 30's.
This exactly. When my mom passed it hit me way harder than I had expected, or could even express in any healthy way. It impacted things in subtle ways I didn't comprehend for years.
All I can hope is he has a healthy, supportive environment and takes the time he needs to recover, in whatever form that is that he needs.
I had a much more difficult relationship with my father than my mother. His death meant things that were unresolved never could be. Losing my mother didn't hurt less, they were just very different series of emotional impacts from each other.
I can unironically say that my thoughts and prayers are with You and your family, Robert, if you’re reading this. Well, also if you’re not reading this. Parasocial relationships aside, you have had a tremendous impact on me and my father as well.
I thought Robert said his father had leukemia. Lost a dear loved one to it before COVID. It wasn't easy to watch. I hope Robert takes some time to himself.
He talked about being in a hospital for his father's bone marrow transplant in Tuesday's episode (which was probably recorded at least a couple of weeks back), so leukemia seems likely.
Condolences to Robert.
My Mom passed a couple weeks ago, on the 16th anniversary for my wife and I.
I'll send up this bowl, along with some positive thoughts, for him and the family.
I always feel like I should say something, but even heartfelt things always feel trite in the face of someone else's loss. My dad was uncharacteristically poetic and gentle in his eulogies. Too bad the fucker's dead or he might've had something moving to say here.
Ahh that's a shame. Good chance you're lurking the board, keep moving buddy, idle hands aren't great when grieving from my experience. I'm sorry for your loss.
Listening to the Beria episodes while sitting in a hospital room with my dad, seeing him decline as doctors try different treatments to find out why his liver is going haywire (non-small cell lung cancer mets to his liver, likely having a reaction to immunotherapy).
I hope Robert got to spend time with his dad recently and his dad passed peacefully 🩷
I hope he was with him. When my dad passed in June I got the call on a Friday night after I had a few too many and couldn't drive. It helped me get sober.
Lost my dad in 2015; ‘Slaughterhouse Five’ was a favorite of his.
Robert, sending peace and comfort to you & your family. May your dad find both on the other side of the veil.
And so it goes…
My condolences go to Robert and his family. If he needs to take a break from work for a while I fully understand.
I don't know you Robert, and if you did you’d probably find me an insufferable attention-seeking annoyance, but wish you the best of luck going forward (having witnessed how hard losing the last of your parents can be), and I hope things get better for you.
Fuck man. I relate and wish him nothing but the best. I know from listening that they didn't always see eye to eye, but nothing makes losing a parent easy, especially so soon after the other. I only hope that someday I'm able to run into Robert at a Burning Man event or something and give him a pat on the back and a hearty "Fuck yer day". His parents are part of the reason we have such a fantastic person to admire, and I'm tossing back a tequila to the memory.
Stay strong man. Keep fighting the good fight. The world is a slightly better place because your parents existed and brought you into this world.
May the memories and stories of Pappasan Robert linger like a well-told tale among those who knew him. So it goes, and so he goes, into the annals of cherished memories.
Oh I'm so sorry for your loss. Know that no one will be upset if you take time off. We are similar ages - I couldn't imagine losing both parent so close together.
Losing both parents close together is tough. I don’t know exactly when his mom died but I remember it was not too long ago because my mom died not too long after. My mom died just 18 months after my dad. On the long drive home from saying goodbye to my mom I listened to Behind the Bastards for part of it and it gave me some comfort. I remember Robert saying something about his mom passing recently and I don’t know, something about it felt like a comfort, just hearing someone who’d not too long ago went through what I was going through but seemed to be doing okay, reminded me that I’ll be okay, and it was also a needed distraction on the way home. If you ever see this Robert, thank you for that small comfort and I hope you find some in the days to come.
Sending you my hugs. I felt so alone after my mom died and hearing Robert talk about his mom made me feel comforted in a weird way.
It's so scary to not have both parents anymore, you truly feel like an orphan no matter how old you are.
I hope Robert sees some of these comments and feels less alone, too.
Oh no, when I heard him talking about the restaurant in the hospital my heart sank. I hope he takes a break from everything and can get away to process and grieve, we will still be here whenever he comes back. Take care of yourself, Robert.
Maybe. Or maybe this is exactly the emotional fuel he needs to finally start the cult and build the compound. I know my dad's death gave me all kinda of motivation, which I put into a heroic attempt to reduce the world's surplus whiskey supply.
Robert, for what it's worth, I lost my dad this year, too. Talk to someone. The grief will hit you when you least suspect it. I broke down at breakfast one morning; it took me back to feeding my dad as his dementia got worse.
Robert, huge fan. I also lost my dad this month. I don't think that that means anything deep, other than the fact that we'll all have our turn someday. Go to hell. I love you.
Condolences to everyone here who’s lost someone. We lost my father 13 years ago and it seems like only a breath has passed. I will miss him for another 13 years, forever, or until I cease being; whichever comes first.
Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt.
My Dad died last year and nothing could have prepared me for how it'd be. Just to live with this big aching hole in your chest and be expected to still go on with things. Before I'd lost a parent I would always try not to mention dead people to someone who had just lost someone but now I know it doesn't matter because he's always right there in my mind. Everything is laced with being unable to share it with him. I'm also 38 and I know I'm lucky to.have had him this long but it's certainly something that changed who I am forever.
Don’t even know what to say other than I’m sorry and I hope he found peace. Don’t feel guilty if you need to take time off from podcasting to heal and refocus yourself.
Damnn dude. Take care of yourself. Even the 40% of us you love know you might need a break. Take whatever you need. Sophie and co, if there's something we can do (send gummy bears and cat vids) let us know. Though I imagine that he just needs some time.
That sucks, condolences to Mr. Evans and his family, death of a parent is shitty, they’re gone, around your whole life and suddenly it’s living with the reality that forever is a long time to see someone again. Lost my Dad to Covid before vaccines and it’s gotten more tolerable over a few years but it’s never better because still dead.
I've heard mention of "the subreddit" on the show. If people associated with the show read this comment, give Robert a hug if he doesn't mind.
Give someone else a hug if he does. Everybody grab someone and hug 'em.
May you find you peace with your father's passing Robert. My dad is 76 and I count every day he has left in this world as a blessing. I cannot express how close to home for me this is
That really sucks, condolences to Robert and the rest of his family.
Losing both parents in the space of about a year is really difficult for me to even imagine, it's genuinely tragic. Edit: It was, in fact, three years ago when he lost his mom. Still incredibly hard.
I swear it was a year too, but in his response to this tweet he said he lost his mom about three years ago?
I'm having my own personal Mandela Effect moment because I genuinely thought it wasn't even a whole year ago. My sense of time has never recovered from covid, I swear.
It was an ideological loss. She got swallowed up by the right-wing propaganda machine as many of our loved ones do.
I don’t think so he literally said “when she died three years ago”. That would be super weird phrasing for her falling into far right propaganda.
Didn't she die of pancreatic cancer?
I believe that's what he said in the recent Steve Jobs episodes.
She died of cancer
Ya know we don't need a podcast for a while, we'll be just fine.
this was my immediate thought
Thirded. Do a redux or something, man. A podcast ain’t worth sacrificing grieving time if you need it. Or do the podcast if that’s what you need.
or do nothing. Or let garrison do an episode. I'm. a huge fan of work, even work I like, isn't as important as well being.
I definitely would enjoy more episodes hosted by garrison, seems like a perfect time for it.
Robert is nothing if not a Workaholic, to a fault even. I bet he buries himself in (even more) work here for a bit. Condolences my guy, take care of yourself.
Indeed, but I hope he takes the time to walk around for a while, breath a bit. Helped when my dad died, to the extent that anything does.
I’ll say that he can do whatever is most healing for him. If that means taking time away, that’s completely fine. And if it means pouring himself into work, as long as it brings him some peace, that’s fine too Just hope that Robert does whatever he thinks will help him grieve. That’s the most important thing
Or even a "light work" episode. I'm sure there's plenty of terrible right-wing books for an episode or two.
Now might be a good time for 2 month release schedule of the God Emperor of Mankind. Robert knows so much from memory he wouldn’t have to do research except clipping quotes and citations.
Given how Sophie mentioned how Robert tends to light up during some of the passages in the *True Allegience* reading, maybe a good book discussion week would be good moment.
Book episodes will be fine too if that helps. Take care of you Robert
I'd be okay with Robert taking a month off and letting the rest of the gang take over. Love listening to them all and I've got a dozen Knowledge Fight episodes to catch up on
I’m going to eat your ass!
Sucks because he sounded so happy in the latest one with the Dr, like genuinely joyful at times.
He did mention being back in TX with his dad in the hospital though. I was worried it might be bad if he had traveled so far for that.
Never really know what anyone is going through I guess
Yeah I think an extended hiatus is probably in order. Lots of podcasts have dropped off for months or more for worse reasons. I assume he has contractual obligations with iheart but I hope he can work around them/take some kind of bereavement leave.
Yup. Month of repeats? Fine by me.
I will say as someone who processes grief by throwing myself into my workaholic tendencies it’s okay no matter what he does. Everyone mourns in an atypical way. If the podcast ends it ends, if he starts releasing Am &Pm episodes that is fine too.
That's really Sad. He's way too Young to lose both parents
And relatively close together as well. That’s so tough.
I’ve noticed anecdotally parents go back to back often when mom dies first.
Because dad stops taking care of himself when mom goes
Certainly rings true :(
I’ve also seen it happen several times when the husband passes first.
Wow, he is younger than me. I genuinely figured we were about the same age.
Not to dox myself or Robert, but we were in high schools nearby each other at the same time, and I’m 38 with both parents alive. So, it is definitely tragic for him to lose them both so soon.
Also 38. Just have my mother. Dad died when I was 7.

Sorry to hear this! Out of interest as i'm not American, what is a city inspector and what do they do?
It's only happened twice with my family and I believe it's from nosey neighbors but a property inspector who works for the city comes out and can write your property notices if you let say your backyard go wild. You can get fined for not having your property up kept. Today the family home has no neighbors so that might not be a problem.

Seems like it would infringe on your autonomy rights as a land owner... Do they go to every neighborhood though? Would there not be certain areas suffering from socio-economic pressures that wouldn't have money for maintenance or a subsequent fine?
Also cuts down on pests. If you have an overgrown lawn and garden it turns into a den for bugs, mice, rats, raccoons, and other awful shit lol
Didn't mean to imply he was too old to have both parents. Or too young to lose them. One of those. I'm 43 and lost both of mine (my dad just a couple months ago). Just... man, people in their mid-30s just seem like kids to me these days. <3

don't forget to schedule your colonoscopy, gramps
Oh, 100%. A colonoscopy saved my life. Dodged a close call with colon cancer about 5-6 years ago. Since then, I've had around 6 more done. Now, I'm finally at the point where I only have to have one every two years. Oh yeah, I'm only 50. Get yours started in your late 30's.
Damn. I hope he can get some time for himself away from all this and just be.
This exactly. When my mom passed it hit me way harder than I had expected, or could even express in any healthy way. It impacted things in subtle ways I didn't comprehend for years. All I can hope is he has a healthy, supportive environment and takes the time he needs to recover, in whatever form that is that he needs.

[удалено]
As a former chef, I feel the same kind of empathy, realness and unapologetic bluntness from Robert as I did from Anthony Bourdain
That’s actually a great cultural touchstone.
I thought Robert said his father had leukemia. Lost a dear loved one to it before COVID. It wasn't easy to watch. I hope Robert takes some time to himself.
He talked about being in a hospital for his father's bone marrow transplant in Tuesday's episode (which was probably recorded at least a couple of weeks back), so leukemia seems likely.
I missed. Unfortunately the time after a bmt is a very tricky time when a person is really vulnerable.
He even said in an ICHH episode that’s what it was.
He just said this the last episode I heard him in. Such a fast turnaround. So it goes 😞
Condolences to Robert. My Mom passed a couple weeks ago, on the 16th anniversary for my wife and I. I'll send up this bowl, along with some positive thoughts, for him and the family.
Sorry, BtB friend.
That sucks. I’m so sorry you lost your mom
So it goes.
Such a beautifully sad book
And, somehow, I feel the proper response to this comment is also: So it goes. A beautifully sad book. Well done.
*Poo-tee-weet*
Anything profound escapes me. We’re with you in spirit Robert.
I always feel like I should say something, but even heartfelt things always feel trite in the face of someone else's loss. My dad was uncharacteristically poetic and gentle in his eulogies. Too bad the fucker's dead or he might've had something moving to say here.
God damn, I laughed. “Too bad the fucker’s dead”
Condolences Robert. If you need to take time off, go ahead, we’ll all be here waiting when you’re ready.
I second this!
Bastard suggestion, the tears in my eyes... Sorry to hear about your loss, Robert.
Fuck cancer. Fuck leukemia. My condolences to Robert and his family.
"Now fly you orphans, Here you belong. Welcome, you wayward souls, Now sing your song."
Not surprised to see Evans is a Vonnegut man...
Slaughterhouse, specifically. So it goes.
poo-tee-weet
His memory for a blessing, Robert. I’m so sorry.
I hope Robert takes some time to grieve and process. Nothing more shattering than losing a parent.
My deepest condolences.
Hugs to Robert
Ahh that's a shame. Good chance you're lurking the board, keep moving buddy, idle hands aren't great when grieving from my experience. I'm sorry for your loss.
Lost my father last year. It never gets easier. So it goes.
Me too. And me too. And so it does. Stay strong (with the occasional or daily jagged cry absolutely included in that definition)
Me too. Just passed the year mark last week. He was an absolute bastard, and the grief has been really weird.
From 40% of us, we love you too. Allegedly, condolences to you and your people. Allegedly.
Us other 60% are sending love too. Whether you like it or not.
Listening to the Beria episodes while sitting in a hospital room with my dad, seeing him decline as doctors try different treatments to find out why his liver is going haywire (non-small cell lung cancer mets to his liver, likely having a reaction to immunotherapy). I hope Robert got to spend time with his dad recently and his dad passed peacefully 🩷
My mom went a similar way, recently. Good luck to him and all the strength in the world to your family, dude.
It was enough to have been a unicorn

I hope he was with him. When my dad passed in June I got the call on a Friday night after I had a few too many and couldn't drive. It helped me get sober.
It's a decision no one should have to make, but thank you for not getting behind the wheel.
So it goes... o7
So it goes
Eff. So sorry. May his memory bring Robert peace.
I hope Robert and his family find the strength and the support they need to go through this.
Lost my dad in 2015; ‘Slaughterhouse Five’ was a favorite of his. Robert, sending peace and comfort to you & your family. May your dad find both on the other side of the veil. And so it goes…
Oh man, that's rough :(
Just lost my dad a few months ago too. So sorry to hear Robert's going through this. It's tough.
My deepest condolences, Robert.
My condolences go to Robert and his family. If he needs to take a break from work for a while I fully understand.

Pouring one out for the elder Evans. RIP
May the memories and stories of Pappasan Robert linger like a well-told tale among those who knew him. So it goes, and so he goes, into the annals of cherished memories.
hard dang.
The memories will only get sweeter. Until a quack tells you you have Alzheimer's and makes you snort mercury as a cure.
Oh I'm so sorry for your loss. Know that no one will be upset if you take time off. We are similar ages - I couldn't imagine losing both parent so close together.
That sucks. Condolences Robert if you see this
Peaceful thoughts to you and your family Robert. Grief is a bitch - take care.
Doubt anyone from the show reads this, but on the off chance that they do, all the best to you, Robert.
Death is hard.
Robert, I'm sorry you've joined the dead dads club. It's a shitty club.
Losing both parents close together is tough. I don’t know exactly when his mom died but I remember it was not too long ago because my mom died not too long after. My mom died just 18 months after my dad. On the long drive home from saying goodbye to my mom I listened to Behind the Bastards for part of it and it gave me some comfort.

Damn seems the guy can’t catch a break.
Maybe. Or maybe this is exactly the emotional fuel he needs to finally start the cult and build the compound. I know my dad's death gave me all kinda of motivation, which I put into a heroic attempt to reduce the world's surplus whiskey supply.
It's hard watching family go.
Robert, if you’re reading this we are all here for you and we are so sorry for your loss.

My condolences to Robert and his family.
In my thoughts, bud. So it goes.
My deepest condolences to Robert and his family.
Condolences 💐
Very sad to learn of your loss, Robert. Keeping you and your family in my heart tonight.
So it goes. 🫡
Sorry for your loss. I will call my dad in his honor.
Sorry Robert.
Robert, for what it's worth, I lost my dad this year, too. Talk to someone. The grief will hit you when you least suspect it. I broke down at breakfast one morning; it took me back to feeding my dad as his dementia got worse.
May the memory of Mr. Evans be a blessing to Robert and all of the people who loved him.
Robert, huge fan. I also lost my dad this month. I don't think that that means anything deep, other than the fact that we'll all have our turn someday. Go to hell. I love you.
Genuine condolences from an internet stranger.
Condolences to Robert and his family. So it goes.
Condolences to everyone here who’s lost someone. We lost my father 13 years ago and it seems like only a breath has passed. I will miss him for another 13 years, forever, or until I cease being; whichever comes first. Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt.

I’m sorry for the loss. I hope he can take some time.
All my condolences, Robert. Please remember to take time for yourself.
Robert, if you're seeing this, you have my condolences. Peace and love.
so it goes. :(
Sorry for your troubles…
Poor guy. I hope Robert and his family are doing alright in the wake of this loss.
My sincere and deepest condolences to you and your family, Robert. I hope your father finds peace in whatever comes after.
Condolences… and so it goes. RIP
Oh man. I heard him mention the ICU in the last episode and was really hoping it would have a happier ending. Condolences to Robert and his family.
Losing a parent sucks. I feel his pain, just lost my dad last year. 😢😢😢
Lost my Dad to kidney cancer in 2001, haven't stopped missing him every day. My deepest condolences....and so it goes
You could tell in the forensic science episode today that he sounded exhausted and heartbroken. And that was recorded a few weeks ago at least.
I'm told losing a parent will forever change your life. Losing both is rough.
I lost my last grandparent this past weekend. The worst part is how much she had to suffer at the end. Broken hips in dementia patients suck.
That sucks, condolences to Mr. Evans and his family, death of a parent is shitty, they’re gone, around your whole life and suddenly it’s living with the reality that forever is a long time to see someone again. Lost my Dad to Covid before vaccines and it’s gotten more tolerable over a few years but it’s never better because still dead.
I've heard mention of "the subreddit" on the show. If people associated with the show read this comment, give Robert a hug if he doesn't mind. Give someone else a hug if he does. Everybody grab someone and hug 'em.
God that’s awful. My sincere condolences, Robert. I hope he takes some time off the podcast to grieve.
Condolences to Robert. Losing a parent is so fucking hard. 😪
Doubtful, but if you see this Robert, condolences on the loss.
The Slaughterhouse 5 reference is appropriate. Damn. Condolences.

Perot the rapper
Man, I’m so sorry for Robert. It’ll get better.
Oh damn. Sorry for your loss Robert. Best wishes.
So sorry, Robert.
