  • Elegy in a Court Churchyard

    In this episode, I offer musings on death sprung from mishearing the title of a poem. Per usual, I try to offer some levity when discussing heavy subjects.

  • Bring Us Your Ancestors

    Sometimes missing persons cases take decades to solve. It so happens that my late great grandfather was a person who went missing from Minneapolis in 1923, and the truth was not found out until 2016! Really! He vanished without a trace from one family and started a new life under a new name.
