What the Brokenhearted Do...

What the Brokenhearted Do... is a 2019 album by American comedian Tim Heidecker focusing on the theme of romantic relationships and break-ups.

Recording and release
Heidecker wrote it in response to an Internet hoax that he was being divorced and released the work through Jagjaguwar. He held a poll on Twitter to name the album, ultimately deciding against Cuck and Tim Crydecker. A music video for "When I Get Up" was released to promote the album. Heidecker took a more serious approach to the recordings, particularly compared to previous albums such as In Glendale.

Reception
The editorial staff of All Music Guide gave the release four out of five stars, with critic Mark Deming possibly "most inspired example to date of how to respond to Internet trolling", writing that "Heidecker's voice is good, not great, but his phrasing and sense of drama is superb" and favorably comparing it to several masters of 1970s soft rock. Pitchfork Media's Sam Sodomsky gave a more mixed review of 6.5 out of 10, writing that he has some limitations as a songwriter but "makes a compelling case for Heidecker as a musician... [this is] his fullest musical statement yet". Vish Khanna of Exclaim! gave the album eight out of 10, summing up that it "is rich in raw songs, often short and sardonic, that revel in Tim Heidecker's unique ability to live a creative life replete with profundity and utterly misanthropic sentiments. Nobody does it better."
