While the focus is on nonfiction, you might occasionally hear about a standout fiction title too.

  • Grave Matters: Cemeteries, Death, and the Lives Left Behind
    Oct 28 2025

    This episode takes listeners on a reflective journey through the spaces we leave behind—cemeteries, burial grounds, and the quiet corners of history where memory lingers. These five books explore death not as an ending, but as a lens for understanding culture, identity, and the lives that often go unnoticed.

    From hidden histories and travel guides for the dead, to the emotional weight of unclaimed lives and the spiritualist craze that swept a nation, this episode blends history, empathy, and curiosity. Whether you’re drawn to the beauty of cemeteries or the mystery of what we leave behind, these pages invite you to walk among the tombstones—and listen to the stories they still tell.

    Certainly! Here’s a clean list of the books featured in Episode 3 of your podcast:

    1. Over My Dead Body: Unearthing the Hidden History of America’s Cemeteries by Greg Melville
    2. 222 Cemeteries to See Before You Die by Loren Rhoads
    3. All the Living and the Dead by Hayley Campbell
    4. Unclaimed: Abandonment and Hope in the City of Angels by Pamela Prickett and Stefan Timmermans
