The Brighter Side
The Brighter Side is a weekly podcast that offers a cynical yet optimistic take on life's challenges. Hosted by Ed Larson, Amber Nelson, Ashley Brooke Roberts, and Julie Rosing, the show aims to find humor and positivity in everyday struggles. It avoids toxic positivity, instead embracing a 'laugh or spiral' approach to coping with difficulties. The podcast is produced by The Last Podcast Network and features a theme song by The Cowmen.
