When someone close dies, your grief gets pushed aside at first

Quote

and so you tend to put your own grief to the side for a little while and then it's only later that you really begin to experience that.

Summary

Talking with Adam after John C. Dvorak's death, Dave notes that when someone in your orbit dies (a spouse, business partner or longtime friend), immediate real-world duties take over. You set your own grief aside, and only later do you really start to feel it.

Not in the audio. The context (Dvorak's passing) comes from the episode's discussion. The words 'later that you really begin to experience that.' are in an Unknown-labeled cue (00:10:00). They're kept because they plainly finish Dave's sentence from the Dave run just before.
