I lost my dad last night. I am heartbroken. Much to do and much to figure out. Please keep him in your thoughts today. To all those who’ve sent my family well wishes over the past year and a half, thank you.
It was an absolute honor being his daughter.
Having a fairly chill afternoon working on book stuff and just wanted to thank you all so much for your incredibly kind messages this week. The ❤️ means a lot! Looking forward to what comes next! 💫
Today is my 6 year anniversary of being on the
@AdamCarollaShow
. I love these guys like my own family and I’m still so happy to be a part of the team.
#GetItOn
I just realized today is my five year anniversary with the
@AdamCarollaShow
. I started the week after I got hired on the morning show on 100.3FM and I was terrified that I’d never fit in. Thank you to
@adamcarolla
and my ACS brothers for welcoming me into the fold. And thank YOU.
Walked into ACS Studios today & after
@adamcarolla
asked how I was, all the guys clapped for me/hugged me. (Then
@BaldBryan
reminded me that he does the “almost dying” around here.) If anyone knows how to make me laugh & feel special, it’s my
@AdamCarollaShow
brothers.

We talked the other day on the
@AdamCarollaShow
about working hard enough so that you actually get to work in your chosen field. I worked hard, struggled through a ton of shitty jobs and finally got to do what I wanted. And it’s awesome.
Had the headstone unveiling today. Incredibly difficult but incredibly important. Tried to make it something worthy of him and who he was but you don’t get a lot of room.
I hope he liked the service and I hope he liked my stones. 💙
“Funeral potatoes” are a combination of cubed potatoes, cream of chicken soup, cheese, and — the coup de grâce — a topping of butter-crisp Corn Flakes. And they’re a staple at Mormon gatherings.
This is my dad at his most “Steve Grad”. Reciting the MLB legal while wearing his daughter’s podcast shirt. This is the man I am saying goodbye to.

@ConwayShow
Found this li’l gem of my dad which not only displays his incredible recall / radio-bull broadcasting chops, but it should shed a little light on my ability to memorize VERY random shit. (Also check out his
#PGP
shirt. That’s dad dedication right there. ❤️💜❤️)
Wedding next Sunday. Bitter sweet w/o dad here asking me what he should wear, what time he should be there, if he’ll be told EXACTLY where to stand, which parts of the ceremony will be in Hebrew & reminding me that he’s “busting his buttons with pride” over the whole thing.
I am so incredibly proud of my 📕
#MyExtraMom
and can’t wait for it to launch on 2/21!!
It is so important for me to give a voice to stepmoms who truly, deeply care about the children who have come into their lives.
Please RT for anyone who may be able to relate. 💙💫🙏
A woman called the
@ConwayShow
last night saying she was out of dish soap so I dropped a couple bottles at her house on the way to
@KFIAM640
. Mentioning it so the audience knows I followed through & as a reminder that helping each other doesn’t have to be hard-took me 5 min! 🌈❤️
I have unconditional love for a child I didn’t birth and I’m committed to helping raise him until he’s an adult. I’m proud of that and happy to spend my time, energy and resources on him. Shame on you for delegitimizing the relationship of a step-family.
I don’t care how old this makes me sound - going on a brisk walk while listening to Billy Joel’s “For the Longest Time” is a special kind of dopamine spike.
I am in awe of your kindness. I had no idea how expensive it was to bury a loved one. Surplus money will go to a broadcasting scholarship I am trying to put together in my father’s name as well as orgs like Jewish Family Services.Thank you.I’m blown away.
I’ve gotten dozens and dozens (and dozens) of comments from people saying how much they miss my news segment on ACS and how much they want me to do a news pod.
Can you tell me why that is? I want to have a better understanding of what it is you like! Thank you!! ❤️🙏
Some of you may have heard by now that I have a book coming out soon called “My Extra Mom”.
I’ve been working on it for almost two years and it’s as much a guidebook for adults as it is a comfort for kids.
All the 📕 info will be pinned right here.
I hope you enjoy it. 💙🙏
Had a totally weirdo day that involved crawling into my kitchen unable to breathe & miming for my bf to call 911. EMTs were amazing, hospital staff was amazing and boyfriend was my hero. Home now resting and hopefully at
@AdamCarollaShow
tomorrow. Steroids+Codeine=💕
Going back to the shows (
@EasyListeningTG
, Easy Listening Patreon and the
@AdamCarollaShow
) tomorrow. A little nervous but I think it’ll be nice to get back in the saddle. ♥️ You’ve all been beyond wonderful and I’m forever grateful.
Met a friend for lunch today in West Hollywood. I put on pants with buttons and even ran a curler through my hair. I think there’s hope for this whole “rejoining society” thing...
About to go to sleep on birthday eve, taking stock of things-wonderful fam & friends, perfect partner & his perfect child, happy home...not as much much $$ in the bank as I’d like & not enough pounds off the scale, but who cares. I’m just so grateful for my life & for all of you.
There’s a guy who made a troll account who keeps lobbing hate speech at me which is fine - unhinged dudes / incels gonna hate.
But here’s the thing I don’t get - he keeps saying “jew” like it’s an insult. Hmmm I wonder what kind of people consider “jew” and insult. 🤔
I know people (guys) think it’s lame when they hear that ANY body is a bikini body but I gotta tell ya...I’ve wasted so much time avoiding things I love bc I’m not back down to my goal weight, that today I’m like f$*k it. And “you’re welcome” to anyone who catches a glimpse. 💫👍

For people who said
@adamcarolla
and I never agreed on anything (which is wholly untrue) I can’t stop thinking about him asking why we don’t focus on university price-gouging instead of student loan forgiveness. Some of these colleges have MILLIONS in endowment funds.
Hypothetically speaking...if you were to have an EXTREMELY stressful week and you were to try drinking some whiskey in the shower after said week, it may just be the greatest thing ever...hypothetically speaking.
Thank you p’casters who are booking me as a guest to shoot the 💩 and promote my book,
#MyExtraMom
!
Want me to come on? Let’s try to make it happen! I’ve been told I’m a “mighty fine” guest who “brings it” and “has the chops to make it in this biz.” 🎤 📕 💙
Just got out of the hyperbaric chamber. 90 min sesh. A little freaky but overall pleasant.
Spoke to the anesthesiologist who has set my mind at ease a bit and I love that this will be an all female OR.
Thank you for your good vibes. I know it helps. 💙🙏💙
My friend Becky set up a funeral fund bc I just got hit with all the burial expenses. Many have reached out abt sending 🌺🌺 so maybe this?
It feels tacky but I’m told it’s ok so...
NO PRESSURE. This is just for people who’ve inquired abt helping.♥️🙏♥️
Republicans - “Stay in our group no matter how insane your beliefs are! Let’s see how far this rubberband can stretch!”
Democrats - “You don’t believe exactly as we believe?? Well there’s the door, non-believer!!”
Stop blaming the other “side”. We can all do better, yeah?
RT!
My husband just reminded me today is my 1 year “canniversary”. A year later and I’m so happy to have this weight off my chest - literally and figuratively. ❤️ Definitely the right decision for me.
PS Easy with the jokes…I’ve already heard and made them all. 🥥 🥥
A very happy birthday to
@adamcarolla
and happy achievement day to me for getting to sit next to this guy for over five years. Glad you were born, Aceman!!
