Accidents, Hospitals, and the Humor in Hard Things (Iris Bahr) | Ep. 45
In this episode of The Walkup, Sean O’Hare sits down with actress and writer Iris Bahr for a conversation that moves from the absurd to the deeply human.
Drawing on Iris’s astonishing hit-and-run experience and the surreal world of New York City hospitals, they explore what suffering reveals about vulnerability, resilience, and the desire for healing. Along the way, Sean and Iris reflect on forgiveness, the limits of self-reliance, and why stories of crisis—on screen and in life—hold such power. Together, they trace how humor, honesty, and unexpected grace can illuminate the fractures and the faith within everyday life.
