Epilogue Podcast Project Elliott Sound

After his dad took his own life in 2018, Galen McCaw began interviewing people who'd lost loved ones to suicide. He hoped others could find moments of peace in the act of sharing their stories. When his friend Hannah reached out, he learned that she’d lost her sister Brie the same way six months earlier.
Their first conversation about Brie spurred a year-long series of interviews with Hannah and her family, uncovering an intergenerational story of trauma, mental illness, addiction,  and ultimately, resilience.
