Kicking the Bucket
✨ Growing old together was the plan. Dying together? That part’s improvised. KICKING THE BUCKET is an immersive fiction dramedy about love, aging, and winging it at the end of life. Dolores and Howard have decided to die with dignity. But they’re not exactly sure how. This darkly funny multicast serial podcast explores elder care, autonomy, caregiving, and all the awkward, tender moments in between. Created by award-winning artist Andee Kinzy, KTB turns taboo topics into conversation. Each 20-minute episode blends humor and heartbreak, building to a bold, choose-your-own-ending finale. ⚠️ CONTENT WARNING: Alzheimer’s, cancer, and end-of-life decision-making. 🌐 MORE INFO: https://improvedarts.org/kickingthebucketpodcast ------------- 🎙️ CAST Mimi Strum & Richard Gartner as Dolores & Howard Also featuring: Kendra L.
