  • Jeff Hiller’s Big Breakup Speech

    Jeff Hiller’s Big Breakup Speech
    Sep 9 2025
    Jeff Hiller, a 2025 Emmy nominee for “Somebody Somewhere” – is a very funny man. A dramatic man. A theater man. A man with many feelings. What do thoughtful performers do when they get dumped? They make a screen-worthy speech. A proclamation. Like Julia Roberts saying “Choose me!” in “My Best Friend’s Wedding.” Or Conrad saying “I still love you” on “The Summer I Turned Pretty.” In this new episode, Jeff shares a hilarious and intimate story about a breakup in his 20s – and the short speech that followed. He and Meredith discuss the pros and cons of making big proclamations, especially if you’re talking to someone who doesn’t even reciprocate. Expect laughter, lessons, and DRAMA. Love Letters is also an advice column. Send your question about your relationships (romance, friendship, family, etc.) to loveletters@boston.com. You can also tell Meredith about a speech you made – and how it was received! Sign up for Meredith’s newsletter – with behind-the-scenes pics, giveaways, and other extras – at boston.com/meredith .

    Back in the day, Meredith was kind of … married to her mother. It was “Gilmore Girls”-esque – for better and worse. That’s why Meredith brought her friend Kumar on Love Letters in 2022 – to talk about how having a partnership with a parent can change your love life. Kumar was kind of married to his mom, too. This is a classic Love Letters episode – with an update from Kumar about how how grief looks over time, and how being on the podcast might have helped him find a new kind of love. Listen and enjoy.

    Earlier this month, two executives were caught cheating – exposed via Jumbotron! – at a Coldplay concert. It happened at Gillette Stadium, about 40 minutes from Meredith’s house. The incident – and its viral aftermath – reminded Meredith of a classic episode of Love Letters … the one about a workplace romance that involved a woman in HR falling for an employee. Join Meredith for a new take on the story – with thoughts on Coldplaygate. Remember, Love Letters is also an advice column.

  • Quarantine, Revisited

    Quarantine, Revisited
    Jul 15 2025
    Five years ago, in the summer of 2020, Meredith Goldstein and the Love Letters team were in lockdown because of the pandemic, making the podcast from separate closets and basements. In their personal lives, they were asking: how can we remain isolated without losing support from community? How can live with loved ones …. without getting sick of them? They found answers by interviewing two people who were already experts in being alone, together: Glenn and Kim Schryver, who fell in love and chose an remote life as caretakers of the Grizzly Reservoir. Meredith revisits this episode and its meaning, five years later. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
