Everything Sucks, Now What? is a podcast about living thoughtfully in a complicated world.
Hosted by Mary England, creator of the Merriment Method, this show is for people who feel the weight of reality but still want to build something kinder inside it.
Each episode explores how to hold two truths at once: grief and hope, rage and responsibility, realism and joy. Instead of pretending things are fine or collapsing into despair, we practice nuance. We name what’s broken. Then we ask what we can do about it.
Through psychological insight, cultural analysis, and gently absurd real-life examples, Mary translates big systemic issues into personal, livable frameworks. You’ll hear conversations about care, power, relationships, burnout, joy, responsibility, and the systems shaping our daily lives. The goal is not perfection or positivity. The goal is clarity, agency, and shared responsibility in a messy world.
This is where we move beyond black-and-white thinking and learn how to build strong circles inside imperfect systems. It’s practical, emotionally honest, and grounded in the belief that feeling good is not denial. It’s a collective condition we help create together.
If you’ve ever thought, “Everything feels overwhelming, but I still want to live well and do good,” you’re in the right place.
Everything Sucks, Now What?
A Merriment Method for a Messy World.

There's a trend on making a carousel on Instagram to look back at 2016.
But I took it further and I'm walking you through the carousel and my entire year, giving you full context to what that year was like.
Including the goals I set for that year, whether I accomplished them, my top 5 lists for that year, the biggest things that were helpful for me and my biggest struggles, and how I feel like 2016 is a good parallel for what's happening for me in 2026.
The good, bad, and ugly.
