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.
Eulogy is written and produced by Ted McCagg, with today’s eulogies delivered by Francis Jue, Candace Leung, Daisy Guevera, Paul Oakley Stovall, and Eric William Morris. Engineering and sound design by Bart Smith at Bart Plus. Music written by Rami Yacoub, Carl Falk, Savan Kotecha, Harry Styles, Kid Harpoon, Mitch Rowland & Tyler Johnson.

Death is a complicated subject. Despite the simplicity ofthe act itself, how a person thinks about it, processes it, and ultimately faces it is uniquely personal. In short, it’s a lot of feelings, and many of them are being tackled this morning in the 3rd grade classroom of Ms. Sarah, at PS 107 in Brooklyn, NY.
Eulogy is written and produced by Ted McCagg, with today’seulogy delivered by Erin Brese, Gracia Damsgard, Rigby Dehnart, Khalil Mak, Hannah Reed, Gus Paglia, McKenna Sawrey, Evie Rye, Virgil Brese, and Eve Paglia.
