Ask Me About My POLST

Stop and Smell the Trees

This is it! The Last Drop! By that we mean this is the last episode of the first season, and it has dropped. I guess you could call it a finale, but that seems too terminal and morbid! We welcome Annalisa and Sejal to the mics to discuss our favorite topic. They offer a beautiful reminder to appreciate the little things in life, like a tree in autumn whose colors have gradually turned to a melange of deep, soulful hues to indicate the death of one phase and the welcoming of the next. But don't stop too long or too many times - we have things to do with our limited time here!

This Never Gets Any Easier

In addition to death and taxes, another thing is for certain: guests of The Last Drop always provide an eternity of knowledge and opinions while cracking jokes for levity. This episode is an entertaining look at the broader topic of existentialism, pessimism, and that universal feeling of "why are we here" or "what's the meaning of life?" We discover another certainty - if you've wondered these things, you're definitely not alone.

Paranormal Alley Ass Grab

Now that we've got your attention with this catchy title, you'll have to listen to get the reference! In contrast to the other episodes, this one is all fun. We allow ourselves to play in the space and spitball some ideas as well as live-research our curiosities of the morbid. Combine that with our love of puppeteering . . . actually, we don't want you to throw up yet, just have a listen.

Ask Me About My POLST

On a very special episode of The Last Drop, we find Kristen and Tom alone in a (possibly haunted) closet. The topic of advanced directives might be dry, but we do our best to moisten it with our wits and our drinks. POA, DNR, POLST (sometimes MOLST), will all be demystified by our resident medical professional as our resident jester makes only himself laugh.

Eternity At Bernie's (The all-you-can-eat-buffet)

Zach is back! We are also joined by Lizzie, a classmate of Tom's. In this thriller, we discuss how we want to leave our mark on this existence; whether it be cryogenically freezing our heads, self-mummification, or just being a good enough person that someone will remember you. We each share what we think heaven will be like and one thing is for sure, it will include a buffet and that buffet will include shrimp.
