Death is big business.
Think about it.
The funeral industry capitalizes on grief, upselling your family on things you’re not taking with you, often making the cost of dying rival the cost of living.
For something we’re all signed up for, death doesn’t exactly have a positive place in our lives
Enter The Orbit Project where we explore both the quirks of life and the inevitability of death.

Jad Abumrad and Jule Banville invite you into a world where every episode finds beauty in finality. There’s an art to telling the stories behind Montana’s obituaries, and The Orbit Project pulls that off with care and quiet grace.
Not surprising, given the hosts.
Instead of dwelling on the sadness that often surrounds death, the show creates space to reflect on lives well lived, dreams fulfilled, and even the unfinished business left behind.
If you appreciate a podcast that doesn’t shy away from life’s biggest questions, The Obit Project is an easy recommendation.
Have a listen, and let us know what you think.
