Finding Fleur

 

In the final episode of season 1, hosts Doug, Anne, and Betsy reflect on their journey thus far. They express gratitude to listeners, share a whimsical poem dedicated to Anne's grandmother, Florence, and read some of her writings. Listeners are treated to two letters, and a humorous short story, highlighting Fleur’s wit and voice. The episode also touches on the enduring value of relationships and the timelessness of written correspondence. As they look ahead to season 2, the hosts plan to let historical letters tell their own stories and welcome various guests to explore the themes of ancestry and history further.
