What I liked

The ending was very satisfying and tied the narrative together nicely.

What I didn't like

BK could really emphasize her last lines to make it clear that this is the big ending for the whole show.

My overall impression

Surprisingly heartwarming, Safety Stew explores grief’s 5 stages and how it transforms over time via a blender. BK uses this analogy very cleverly, and the physical comedy from the “smoothies” she makes gets a visceral reaction out of the audience every time. I very much appreciate BK’s signature raw and vulnerable storytelling style.
