No Heroic Measures: Jessica Danger on Telling the Truth About Grief, Addiction, and Shared Humanity
Episode 175
Sunday, 3 May, 2026
In episode 175, I’m joined by writer, educator, and friend Jessica Danger to talk about her memoir, No Heroic Measures. This conversation is about grief, addiction, caregiving, estrangement, sobriety, and the responsibility that comes with telling the truth on the page. Jessica and I talk about how she shaped an incredibly personal story into a memoir, what it means to tell the truth, and why specificity really is generosity. We also get into the writing process itself — the messy drafts, the revisions, the details you keep, the details you cut, and how sometimes the story you think you’re writing is not the story at all. This one is personal, thoughtful, and deeply human. Episode Sponsors: VM Merch Go Pills -- use "VM15" at checkout for 15% off your order.
