She wanted to see what a dead body looked like (1/5)

Hello and welcome to All of The Above. I'm James Brown. Thanks for joining me. You can check out my work at jamesbrowntv.substack.com.

It's there I make podcasts about the things that unite us and the people obsessed with them. Its in that spirit that I present to you a series called completing the circle. 

Its about death and dying and the people who embrace it everyday like today’s guest Genevieve Keeney Vasquez.

She’s spent her whole life wanting to work in these fields centered on death and dying and those they leave behind and she has. She's worked a funeral director, an army medical officer, a palliative nurse, and most currently President and CEO of the National Museum Funeral History 

She was fascinating and revealing and eloquent: everything you can ask in a guest.
