How do you forget your favourite person in the world? Alex remembers everything about the day a speeding police car killed his brother. But his brother, alive? Those memories are lost. And now, 30 years later, Alex wants them back.

Sorry About The Kid is a deeply personal meditation on the losses that define us. Hosted by Alex McKinnon. Produced with Mira Burt-Wintonick (WireTap, Love Me).

Thank you for sharing. I don't think I've cried all the way through a podcast before,it was so sad and interesting to see how it affected each family member. And each in their own way. I hope you have more memories come from this ❤️
An unimaginable tragedy and eloquently told by a man who was deprived of growing up beside his brother by a senseless act that had no accountability. The story makes the listener feel the love and pain and grief of the family.Highly recommend a listen!
This is an excellent telling of an unimaginable gut wrenching tragedy. Brother Alex takes a courageous journey to resurrect the lost memories of his brother. Alex narrates this podcast working through his own unresolved grief and revisiting his families experiences as well. Highly recommend.
Very touching story. An inspirational perspective from the family, gracefully presented. Such a sad and incredible loss.
