This episode explores the themes of relational pain and recovery through the lens of the romantic comedy 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall'.

Sometimes relationships end messy - and maybe you were unaware that the relational collapse was about to occur. How do you move on? How do you "forget?" Maybe a better question: Can you forget? This week we look at a wonderful romantic comedy that looks at deceit, cheating, broken-heartedness, loss, and...recovery.
