Happy Anniversary to us! 🎉

For our sixth anniversary episode, we did what any responsible podcasters would do: showed up with absolutely no plan and started talking.

What followed was a trip down memory lane as AJ and Tara revisited some of their favorite Podcast in Death moments from the last six years. From the nerve-wracking first time reaching out to audiobook legend Susan Ericksen, to beloved guest appearances, to the episodes that somehow turned discussions about gift rooms, truck nuts, and laundry machines into comedy gold, this episode is a celebration of everything that makes this podcast so much fun.

• The story behind getting Susan Ericksen on the podcast for the very first time
• How Tara went from guest host to permanent fixture after Episode 7
• Favorite guest appearances, including discussions with listeners, authors, and fellow podcasters
• Why "We Review the Reviews" remains one of the most entertaining things they do
• The joy of talking about murder, friendship, character growth, and occasionally truck nuts
• A look back at some of the funniest and most memorable moments from the show
• AJ's surprise trivia game featuring ridiculous out-of-context quotes from past episodes

• "They're Both Dicks: The End"
• The infamous gift room discussion
• White elephant gifts in the In Death universe
• Summerset vs. Eve debates
• Roarke's occasional bouts of dickishness
• Why Barney was, in fact, a dick
• The luxury of having a washing machine in your apartment
• "Get that woman some birthday cake!"

Mostly, though, this episode is about gratitude. Six years ago Podcast in Death was just an idea. Today it's a thriving community of readers, listeners, and friends who love talking about these books almost as much as Eve loves coffee and Roarke loves Eve.

Thank you to everyone who has listened, emailed, commented, joined us live, disagreed with us, laughed with us, and helped make Podcast in Death what it is.

Here's to the next six years. 🥂📚💀

Because apparently there's still plenty of murder left to discuss.
