What This Documentary Teaches Us About Being Human
This isn’t a documentary about dying. It’s a documentary about living.
In this solo episode of Parallel Frequencies, Coco takes the mic while Blane is traveling and delivers a deeply moving, thoughtful deep dive into the documentary Come See Me in the Good Light—a powerful portrait of poet Andrea Gibson, love, art, mortality, and what it truly means to show up for life while facing its end.
What begins as a film discussion opens into a wide-ranging reflection on death as a teacher, creativity as survival, and love as an act of presence. Coco explores how the documentary balances grief with humor, poetry with the mundane, and pain with beauty—highlighting the extraordinary love story between Andrea and their wife Megan, and the radical honesty they bring to living fully in the face of terminal illness.
This episode also touches on mental health, suicide awareness, and the importance of accessible support resources, dedicating the conversation to the organization Promise to Live. Ultimately, this is an invitation to reflect on your own life—how you love, how you create, and how you live—without waiting for a crisis to begin doing it fully.
