Eulogy
Podcast Description
Who tells our story when we die? Certainly not us. I mean, we’re dead.
No, that task is left to those we left behind, the ones who witnessed the different versions of us we evolved through at every stage in our lives. Those who saw us at our best, and those who witnessed us at our worst..
In each episode of the new fictional podcast Eulogy, we hear the stories of one life told by those who knew them best. With each new perspective, we gain a fresh appreciation for life's breadth and complexity, giving us the chance to remember just how beautiful, messy, sad, and absurd life can be.

The longer someone has lived, the longer we have to process the unavoidable grief that comes with dying. We’re able to say, in all honesty, “They lived a full life.”
But how do you process the grief for someone who has gone too soon? Someone who had so much more to do, to see, and to give. It’s a challenge that’s being met this afternoon at the Tabernacle United Church in Philadelphia, PA.
