Lahna Turner joins Rick while she’s in Boston for the screening of Come What May at the Boston Film Festival. The deeply personal documentary tells the story of her late husband, comedian Ralphie May, from his rise in comedy to his battle with addiction and the complicated reality of loving someone through it all. Rick and Lahna talk about grief, love, family, forgiveness, and her decision to tell Ralphie’s story honestly—both the good and the difficult.

They also get into Lahna’s Pounds of Power comic books, which take the larger-than-life Ralphie May and reimagine him as an actual comic-book superhero.
