S2 E36 - Joshua Emerson - Bad Indian - is a Diné comedian who produced the Colorado Native Comedy Show and named his poignant documentary - Bad Indian after the song by the same name by Dead Pioneers. Joshua shares his beautiful journey of healing resentments with his mom as they bonded and laughed while going to college together and then how humor was integral to his upbringing and how it helped him manage his grief when she died.
