This week on Live! with Fefe & Freddy, we took on one of the most human topics of all: grief. After losing a friend unexpectedly, Freddy opened up in “Just the Tip” about how grief hits differently for everyone — whether it’s the loss of a person, a relationship, or even an idea of what life was supposed to be. We talked about the stages of grief, giving people space to process, and how collective grief impacts entire communities.

In “A Closer Look at Current Events,” Fefe broke down major news stories, including:
• The U.S. retiring the penny
• The end of the government shutdown and delayed pay for workers and military personnel
• Transgender Air Force members suing over the loss of early retirement benefits
• Michelle Obama’s firm statements on not running for president
• Trump’s sudden push to release the Epstein files
• New breakthroughs in meditation research and enamel regrowth
• Good news from a new book-vending machine supporting small authors

We also recapped the weekend — from Drag Bingo + Cats selling out to family time, laundry, Freak Brothers Pizza, and a too-warm Zoo Lights trip.

The episode closed with a reminder to cherish time with your chosen family, lift up your trans siblings during Trans Awareness Week, and invest in the people who make life meaningful.
