Aubrey Plaza discussed her grief following the death of her husband, Jeff Baena, during an appearance on Amy Poehler's Good Hang podcast. She expressed feeling grateful for being present in the moment while acknowledging the daily struggles that accompany her grief. Plaza used an analogy from the movie The Gorge to describe her experience with grief, comparing it to navigating between cliffs with a gorge filled with monstrous figures, symbolizing her emotional turmoil. She illustrated how the overwhelming nature of grief is ever-present in her life.
"Right in this very, very present moment, I feel happy to be with you. I'm here and I'm functioning and I feel really grateful to be moving through the world. I'm okay, but it's a daily struggle, obviously."
"In the movie, there's like a cliff on one side and there's a cliff on the other side, then there's gorge in between and it's filled with all these like monster people that are trying to get them."
"At all times there's like a giant ocean of awfulness, that's like right there and I can see it. Sometimes I just want to dive into it, and just like be in it."
