Stop and Smell the Trees
This is it! The Last Drop! By that we mean this is the last episode of the first season, and it has dropped. I guess you could call it a finale, but that seems too terminal and morbid! We welcome Annalisa and Sejal to the mics to discuss our favorite topic. They offer a beautiful reminder to appreciate the little things in life, like a tree in autumn whose colors have gradually turned to a melange of deep, soulful hues to indicate the death of one phase and the welcoming of the next. But don't stop too long or too many times - we have things to do with our limited time here!

This Never Gets Any Easier
In addition to death and taxes, another thing is for certain: guests of The Last Drop always provide an eternity of knowledge and opinions while cracking jokes for levity. This episode is an entertaining look at the broader topic of existentialism, pessimism, and that universal feeling of "why are we here" or "what's the meaning of life?" We discover another certainty - if you've wondered these things, you're definitely not alone.

Paranormal Alley Ass Grab
Now that we've got your attention with this catchy title, you'll have to listen to get the reference! In contrast to the other episodes, this one is all fun. We allow ourselves to play in the space and spitball some ideas as well as live-research our curiosities of the morbid. Combine that with our love of puppeteering . . . actually, we don't want you to throw up yet, just have a listen.

Ask Me About My POLST
On a very special episode of The Last Drop, we find Kristen and Tom alone in a (possibly haunted) closet. The topic of advanced directives might be dry, but we do our best to moisten it with our wits and our drinks. POA, DNR, POLST (sometimes MOLST), will all be demystified by our resident medical professional as our resident jester makes only himself laugh.

Eternity At Bernie's (The all-you-can-eat-buffet)
Zach is back! We are also joined by Lizzie, a classmate of Tom's. In this thriller, we discuss how we want to leave our mark on this existence; whether it be cryogenically freezing our heads, self-mummification, or just being a good enough person that someone will remember you. We each share what we think heaven will be like and one thing is for sure, it will include a buffet and that buffet will include shrimp.

Second-Hand Remains
What do we do with our bodies after we die? Apparently, have your family donate them to a local thrift store, according to this episode's guest. Laura Benson of Benson Family Funeral Home recommends that you explore all options before it comes to this. We know it's hard to lose a loved one, but take a deep breath, call around, and ultimately decide to shop local. It will end up being much more affordable and you will help a small business! Enjoy!

Truckin'
Friends of the devil drop by to make ripples in still water. Featuring the doo-dah man himself, Jeremy, who just keeps truckin'; and Yvonne, who tells us how to adorn our burial sites with sugar magnolias and scarlet begonias. Just know that when the wind blows us into Terrapin station to meet with Uncle John's band, that every silver lining has a touch of grey, but we will get by. After all these references, I'm sure at least some of you would be Grateful to be Dead.

Grief Hallway
We are so incredibly grateful for guests Heather, Jen, and Aaron for not only sharing their traumatic death-related events, but doing so with vulnerability and levity. If podcasts had ratings or awards like TV, this episode would definitely be published during sweeps. Make sure to heed the disclaimer/trigger warning because we discuss some emotionally challenging topics like suicide and sudden death. True to our form, we still have a profound, cathartic, and heartening discussion. Enjoy!

About The Last Drop
Ben Franklin once wrote “in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes”. For two certainties of life, we don’t seem to talk about either of them as much as we should. Since the topic of taxes is pretty depressing, let’s talk about death. What blows my mind is that this is one experience we will all definitely share but completely isolated from one another. Before I cross the ultimate finish line, I just want to sit with friends, family, and even strangers and connect on what we think happens, what we hope happens, and what we know happens when we die.
