from Kalliope's Korner · host Kalliope

Send me a text Ready to venture off the beaten path of the afterlife? Hold on tight as we explore unconventional, eccentric, and downright bizarre alternatives to traditional coffins and urns. With my funeral home owner guest down with COVID, it's just you and me on this wild and spooky ride. From being pressed into a vinyl record to biodegradable urns and space burials, I’ll reveal the strange and wonderful ways people are choosing to spend their afterlife. Brace yourself for a rollercoaster of emotions, from hilariously absurd to thought-provoking.Fasten your seatbelts as we navigate tree burials (and their potential mishaps), alien encounters in space burials, and diamond transformations. Each has its own pros, cons, and my personal takes on them. We’ll discuss the ecological brilliance of reef burials and the haunting beauty of glass transformations. But be warned: not all that glitters is gold – or a diamond, for that matter. Join us for a lively, unconventional, and definitely weird conversation about celebrating life, even in the afterlife.
