This is a personal one for me. Yes, all the episodes are personal but this one involves some of my own grief. This episode is the Ultimate D, a title bestowed by my guest, one of my close friends, Zach. The ultimate D being death. Last year, my friend and Zach's wife Tarin, died.

In this episode, Zach shares his love story, and about his grief, we talk about what it’s like to be alone, after having the future you hoped for erased. And, we talk about what healing has looked like for him.

Zach was born and raised in the Eastern Townships of Quebec, but now calls Toronto home. As part of his resetting of his life, he is just in the process of launching a brand new travel company called Dinosaur Trips that specializes in dinosaur and paleontology-based experiences to destinations around the world. Maybe this will be the first job he's had that he identifies as part of who he is, but maybe not. We'll see. The main things he cares about are music, movies, books, pop culture in general, and sports. Plus friends and family, because of course. And he has a dog named Dixie and a Montreal Canadiens-centric podcast called The Montreal Bias that may or may not come back at some point soon. Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or anywhere else.
