Triple Virgo — Fri, 22 Aug 2025 09:32:24 +0000

Episode 016: Henry's Ghosts

Triple Virgo — Sun, 21 Nov 2021 19:58:12 +0000

In this episode, I’m honoring a special birthday request for more ghost stories, but rather than just running through an assortment of haunted places, I thought it would be fun to focus on the ghosts that surround one historical figure: King Henry VIII of England.

Henry the VIII’s romantic life, and his six wives, has held our fascination for centuries so we'll be discussing the lives (ahem, I mean, afterlives) of his many brides... King Henry's ghosts.

Triple Virgo — Mon, 25 Oct 2021 21:17:00 +0000

There are so many different festivals and holidays around the end of October that merged together to form what we in the USA call Halloween and today I’d like us to untangle some of those threads together. We’ll walk through some of the history of the holiday from the ancient festival of Samhain to the present-day consumer megabeast we know and love.

For this episode, I discuss some odds and ends I’ve discovered on this podcasting journey.

Episode 012: Shared Despair

Triple Virgo — Sun, 21 Mar 2021 13:04:13 +0000

Let’s hit pause on this era of shared despair to try and find some humor amid the misery. A twisted humor, perhaps, but good for a laugh all the same. Even if it’s just a modest chuckle. Join us as we consider the famous last words, the occasionally mixed feelings about human calamities, and the dangers of everyday objects and events, like molasses and atomic wedgies.

Triple Virgo — Mon, 02 Nov 2020 17:33:15 +0000

Back in Episode Seven we first touched upon the subject of hauntings in the United States and we thought it would be fun to circle back, especially this time of year.

Episode 010: What To Do Before You Die

Triple Virgo — Fri, 11 Sep 2020 09:35:55 +0000

Today we're here to talk about preparing for the inevitable. Don't panic. We're going to try to keep things fun while we talk about some of the decisions that need to be made prior to death. And this just isn't about what happens after you die. These decisions can impact you while you're alive. Really, we have a lot to discuss from Powers of Attorney and Wills to Legacies and, of course, what to do with the body. Let's dive into some real talk with maybe just a smidge of healthy irreverence...

Episode 006: The Lives and Deaths of Saints

Triple Virgo — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 17:39:16 +0000

In this latest installment of The Mortician's Daughter, we talk about avoiding the summer heat (and resultant depression) here in the Sonoran Desert and about the paths to Sainthood, obviously. You might not see the initial correlation between these two ideas, but in fifteen minutes, I can draw the line. Yes, as any art historian can tell you, the road to sainthood is quite violent for those martyred for their faith. In this episode, we discuss the lives (and deaths) of some Catholic Saints and consider some alternative options...

Summers in Arizona can be especially difficult for families in need. We just wanted to take a moment to remind our local listeners that St. Vincent de Paul helps families right here in the Phoenix area with food, medical assistance, and more. They are currently seeking donations so if you’re ready to Marie Kondo your house or get rid of some unneeded clutter, consider helping out this local organization. You can find out more about direct donations or volunteer opportunities at stvincentdepaul.net.

Episode 005: Nietzsche and Eternal Recurrence

Triple Virgo — Tue, 07 May 2019 22:30:34 +0000

This time around, I’m here to briefly touch upon Nietzsche and Eternal Recurrence. Now, Friedrich Nietzsche presents such a large and looming figure -- philosophically, culturally, and personally -- that I feel we will be revisiting him and his work again in the months and years to come so, instead of getting too carried away right off the bat, I thought it might be best to narrow our focus and touch upon one of his more popular notions: Eternal Recurrence. We can save the Übermensch and Nazis and horse-whipping crazy-house for another day...

Episode 001: Begin with the End

Triple Virgo — Thu, 04 Oct 2018 19:36:34 +0000

For our very first episode of The Mortician’s Daughter, I offer up a short introduction before diving right in with the stages of death, including algor and rigor mortis. And, of course, we establish the most difficult stage to identify: death itself. Just what does make someone officially dead anyway? Find out on this episode.

The Mortician’s Daughter brings you a monthly meditation on the macabre to help you face your existential crisis head on. From rigor mortis to dark goddesses of the graveyard, we'll be covering an array of grim and occasionally gruesome topics. All things death are open to exploration.
