Summary

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! How is it already 2025?!! This year on the podcast, I want to focus more on people’s stories. I want to BREW curiosity. And I’m starting with an oldie but a goodie. I know many of you love my mom and my dad. And as you probably know, my dad has dementia, and I moved my parents into the house across the street from mine last year so I could see them more and help out. This episode contains a very special interview, and a story I think you’re all curious about. This is the last fully recorded conversation I had with my father before he wasn’t able to have conversations like this anymore. . . . . . Have a secretly extraordinary life?
