🕯️ Between Light and Loss This isn’t just another episode about death—it’s about how the living use it. Guido Perino opens a raw, poetic reflection on why November is called the month of the dead and why ancient rituals from Samhain to All Souls’ Day still echo through our modern grief. The month of fading light becomes a mirror for how we remember, connect, and let go.💐  The Beauty—and Vanity—of Flowers We send flowers to funerals to honor the departed… but do we secretly hope others notice our gesture? Guido challenges one of society’s quiet hypocrisies: the performance of grief. He explores how our attempts to honor the dead often reveal more about the living—and our own discomfort with mortality.🍲 Food, Comfort, and the Awkward Silence of Mourning Why do we always eat after a funeral? Guido looks at the ancient roots of sharing a meal after death—a ritual that was never meant to be judged by flavor but by presence. Between bites and small talk, he invites listeners to see how food keeps the heartbeat of community alive when words fail.🖼️ Memories, Mementos, and Missed Chances The photos, the trophies, the stories—Guido explores the sacred space of remembrance tables, but with an unflinching question: why do some people celebrate a life they barely showed up for? It’s a segment that pulls no punches, balancing empathy with honesty about what we owe to the living before they’re gone.👁️  Seeing the Dead—Within Ourselves Using the famous line from The Sixth Sense, Guido dives into what “seeing the dead” really means. It’s not about ghosts—it’s about confronting our own buried emotions, regrets, and relationships that died long before the people did. Death becomes a metaphor for emotional truth and spiritual healing.🌄  The Ordinary Effect of Death November becomes more than a month—it’s a meditation. Guido closes with a hauntingly beautiful reflection on how death, remembrance, and gratitude weave together to remind us that life, in all its impermanence, is still worth holding close.🎧  Listen Now Prepare for an episode that isn’t afraid of the dark. The Ordinary Effect turns the discomfort of death into a deeply human exploration of meaning, memory, and what it really means to live.
