Death is more than the period at the end of our life stories; it punctuates our lives constantly, in ways we can't possibly anticipate. How does death change the way we live?

In this episode, interviews with three business owners featuring silver, blood, and books.

We all have fears. Loneliness, injury, loss of independence-- these are just a few of mine. But what do we do with these fears? In this episode, three remarkable women: Angela, Jan, and Anne.

This episode is a little different, and a little longer. We'll hear from three women, but we'll hear from each of them more than once.

Do you ever get tired of being you? Listening to the same thoughts and niggling anxieties bouncing around in your head? This episode is about the rare moments when we lose ourselves, however briefly, through others.

Your Story Here is back with the first episode of Season 2! Producer Lizzie Peabody continues to interview the acquaintances and strangers who cross her path, sometimes in the least orthodox of locations. (Like the bushes.) In this episode, we find out what can happen when you do the thing you've always been told not to do: ride the bike trail alone at night.

In the final episode of season one, we pull a few interviews from the archive that feel particularly timely. This week features guns and God, and brings us close to the line between life and death.

Every now and then someone will say something that stops you in your tracks and makes you think: "Wow. That's how people see me?" This episode is about identity, and the relationship between how we think of ourselves and how the world sees us, which don't always match up.

As a society we place a high premium on appearances, beyond the standards of beauty we aspire to. Our bodies are the slivers of us that greet the physical world, but it's easy to forget how closely the external and internal are linked. This episode is about appearances: how we wear the invisible forces of our lives, and who we trust to change how we look.

"What do you want to be when you grow up?" I heard this question often as a kid, and my response was always the same: "Something that hasn't been invented yet." This episode is about the ways that our jobs fit into our lives...or don't. We hear from a traveling street musician, an ex non-profit worker turned life coach, and an electrical company employee.

"Hey guys, this is not a typical episode! Just a quick word to let you all know that I've been traveling so I don't have a show coming out this week, but I'll have a new episode out in two short weeks. In the meantime, hello from Austin!"

All my life I've heard different versions of the same story. Today's show is about how we meet: how our lives bump up against one another's in ways that, even when they seem "meant to be," aren't always straightforward.
