Today the ladies are discussing death! But it's not as depressing as you may think. Olivia tells us all about Varanasi, a holy city where people go to die, while Johanna regales us with the story of Angie Berbuer, a woman who nearly died in a car crash at the age of 21.

Air Castles is a cultural anthropology podcast where Semi-Qualified Hosts/World Travelers/Best Friends Johanna Schöllauf and Olivia Schmitz try to learn more about world cultures one topic at a time.
