The Mourning Map is a travel podcast where I walk into the world's most beautiful cities and ask the one question nobody puts on the tourist map - what happened here, and who paid for it? Every episode I explore a real place, uncover its hidden history, decode the grief that got buried underneath the beauty and refuse to move on until it's been properly felt. Because grief is not just personal. It lives in the ground beneath our feet. In the architecture. In the festivals nobody fully understands anymore. In the stories that never made it onto the monument. I'm Kiran and I'm here to shine my light into the darkest corners of the most beautiful places on earth. One city. One wound. One tear at a time.

    Episode 2 - Chelmsford – The City Where Some Deaths Get Stone And Others Get Silence

    Episode 2 What happens when fear becomes law? In this episode of The Mourning Map, we travel to Chelmsford, England - the heart of the Essex witch trials to uncover how ordinary people became victims of extraordinary hysteria. From the infamous Witchfinder General Matthew Hopkins to the women accused, tortured, and executed for simply being different, this episode explores the psychology and danger of unchecked fear, and why history is closer to repeating itself than we'd like to believe. Because the real monsters were never witches.........

    Episode 1 - Catania - the city that grief built

    For episode 1, I am going to take you to Catania, Sicily — a city that has been destroyed by volcanoes, earthquakes, plague and war, and rebuilt itself every single time. From the same black lava stone that kept trying to kill it. But before I tell you about the disasters, I need to tell you about a girl named Agatha. Who said no to a powerful man. And paid everything for it. And how an entire city has been crying in the streets for her every February for eighteen hundred years.
