Aaron chats with WCHL alum Molly Stillman, who just published her memoir, “If I Don’t Laugh, I’ll Cry: How Death, Debt, and Comedy Led to a Life of Faith, Farming, and Forgetting What I Came into This Room For.” The book chronicles her wild spiritual, financial, occupational, and mental-health journey – beginning with her mother Lynda Van Devanter, whose own writing raised awareness about the experience and struggles of female Vietnam veterans.
