Today, we're diving into the history of blueberries and huckleberries, from their ancient roles in indigenous cultures to their rise in modern agriculture. Explore the fascinating evolution of the canning industry, spotlighting how the Ball Brothers Corporation and a pivotal court case in 1870 revolutionized food preservation and blueberry production. Discover the intriguing story of the huckleberry industry's boom and bust during the early 20th century, shaped by economic forces and wartime priorities, while reflecting on the contrasting sustainable practices of indigenous communities. Join us as we celebrate the groundbreaking work of Dr. Frederick Coville and Elizabeth White, whose innovative efforts in cultivating blueberries transformed barren lands into lush, productive fields. Their collaboration laid the foundation for today's blueberry industry, with a nod to the USDA's role in promoting cultivation and breeding advancements. From understanding the perfect conditions for blueberry growth to exploring the whimsical world of whortleberries, this conversation is as informative as it is entertaining. With humor and heart, we invite you to consider the cultural and historical significance of these beloved berries and to rethink how we integrate native crops into our diets.

Many patients are embalmed or cremated after death, but this isn't the only option. Embalming and cremation have a negative impact on the environment, and other, more eco-friendly, options are becoming popular.Options such as green burials, human composting, and reef balls give people options for how to handle their loved one's body after death.Do you think that accepting, and even facilitating, decomposition of a body after death helps us engage in "circle of life" coping? Or are standard funeral services more helpful?Let me know what you think!If you like this podcast, please subscribe!Delia Delia Chiaramonte, MDwww.integrativepalliative.comCoping Courageously: A Heart-Centered Guide for Navigating a Loved One's Illness Without Losing Yourself is available here: www.copingcourageously.com A free guide for physicians to help reclaim your joy at work and in life https://trainings.integrativepalliative.com/pl/2148540010Please review this podcast wherever you listen and forward your favorite episode to a friend!

Send us a textHello again my friends, and fellow future funeral professionals!We are officially back and kicking off with David Penepent, PhD and his lovely and amazing co-educator and professor, Darian Cain!For this episode we are diving into those ever-so-important Embalming Glossary Terms.LISTEN VERY CLOSELY: These are so unbelievably important to know to pass your Science NBE (AND you really need to know your RA, no JOKE you will be CRYING IN THE CLUB if you think I'm just kidding around)!We had so much fun and really enjoyed producing this episode for you. Fun side stories, as always (I AM SORRY I CANNOT RESIST, OK?!).We are reading from David's book:A Complete Guide to the Science Section of the National Board Exam for Funeral ServicesSection: Glossary Terms for EmbalmingNow, if you haven't already purchased either of his books (he has one for Arts and one for Sciences), I really suggest you do so. I know y'all absolutely LOVE those dang Taggart Notes but believe me when I tell you this: they are EXTREMELY outdated. When I read a section, I can't tell you how often I just gloss right past it because it'll say something like "as of 2015," or something similar.If you want to purchase one, or both, you may do so on the D.E.A.D Program's website under Resource Material, AND, if you use the discount code MEG25 (seriously, it is really THAT easy!) you will not only get $25 off of one book, you'll get $25 off if you want them both, just do two separate orders- nothing wrong with the sneaky sneak!

Ancient Egyptian funeral practices revolved around the belief in preparing the body for burial to ensure a smooth journey in the afterlife. Preserving the physical body through embalming was crucial, as it allowed the soul to return and reunite with the spirit. The embalming techniques employed by the Egyptians involved the use of resins, oils, and natron to preserve the body. The evolution of these techniques aimed at disinfection, preservation, and restoration, influenced by religious beliefs and the need to prevent the spread of diseases. The cult of Osiris, Isis, and Horus played a significant role in Egyptian mythology and burial practices. Family members held important roles in the embalming process. The relationship between Osiris, Isis, and Horus was deeply intertwined with the embalming process, and the canopic jars used to hold specific organs were of great significance. The Egyptians believed in the ba's 3000-year journey, and preserving the body was essential for its reunion with the ka, ensuring immortality. Embalming completed the circle of necessity, allowing the soul's return to the body. Embalming practices varied based on social status. Basic wrapping and burial were reserved for the common people, while royalty underwent elaborate embalming procedures. The classification of embalming practices by grades emphasized the level of status based on the embalming process.

It's the 100th episode of The Mortuary Show!! And we've got an extra special guest for you... It's the one & only Kennedy Reid. Kennedy just finished Top 20 in American Idol: She can sing, she can embalm, she can get the crowd going, and a special edition of Ave Maria may or (definitely won't) make an appearance. Yay Kennedy! ----- Mortuary Marketing Elevate your funeral home's online presence. Check it out. Want to start today? Email: conor@mortuary-marketing.com ----- Want more of the Mortuary Show? Follow our social medias: Instagram TikTok Facebook ----- Show Notes: (02:07) – Auditioning for American Idol. (08:14) – Embalming room on National TV. (21:40) – LA life vs funeral home life. (28:07) – Always keep that license! ----- Takeaways Kennedy Reed, a top 20 contestant on American Idol, is also a licensed funeral director and embalmer. She balanced her work at a funeral home with her time on American Idol, with the support of her funeral home family. Kennedy's passion for her work as an embalmer is evident, and she finds fulfillment in caring for the deceased. She discusses the challenges of dealing with cases involving children and gun violence, which can be emotionally difficult. Kennedy had plans to dedicate a performance on American Idol to children who have lost their lives to gun violence. Being a contestant on American Idol is physically and emotionally challenging, especially for young contestants. The filming schedule for the show is demanding, with long days and constant travel. Kennedy plans to pursue a career in music and hopes to make original music and go on tour. She will also keep her mortuary license as a backup plan. Kennedy received support from fellow contestants and enjoyed sharing her background as a mortician.
How can we control that special odor we all so love to hate- DeCoMp??? Michael & Stephanie (@thegreendirector) discuss the changing shift towards green options for families. They also get into Parting Stones, opening a alkaline hydrolysis facility, and a lot more fun knowledge. ----- Mortuary Marketing Elevate your funeral home's online presence. Check it out. Want to start today? Email: conor@mortuary-marketing.com ----- Want more of the Mortuary Show? Follow our social medias: Instagram TikTok Facebook ----- Show Notes: (00:36) – Running a Green Facility. (05:43) – A unique way to control special odors. (21:28) – Embalming for everyone. (30:24) – Parting Stone. ----- Takeaways Running a green funeral facility requires creativity and problem-solving skills to accommodate families' wishes without embalming. Creative solutions for odor control in natural burials include using natural antibacterial products, baby powder, and cedar blocks. Distinguishing the funeral home from competitors is essential, and offering unique services and eco-friendly options can attract families. Trying new products, such as green embalming fluids, can benefit both the funeral home and the embalmer's health. There are different levels of green funeral options, and families want more choices. Embalming can be a beautiful last gift to preserve the memory of a loved one, but there are also more eco-friendly embalming options available. The process of opening an alkaline hydrolysis facility can be challenging due to regulations and approvals from various authorities. Funeral service can be emotionally draining and time-consuming, leading some professionals to seek alternative roles or support funeral directors in other ways. Parting Stone offers a service that solidifies cremated remains into stones, providing families with an alternative option. Supporting funeral directors and funeral homes is crucial for the industry's growth and longevity. There is a need for an in-between role that educates families about their funeral options and helps them make informed decisions.
This week I am sharing a private channeling session from last year with the underworld God of ancient Egypt, Anubis. Anubis was a jackal-headed god in ancient Egyptian religion, associated with the afterlife, death, and the protection of the dead. Here's a breakdown of his role and how he was worshipped: Role and Responsibilities: Guardian of the Dead: Anubis was primarily seen as the protector of the deceased. He watched over them as they journeyed to the afterlife. Embalming and Mummification: In some myths, Anubis was credited with inventing the mummification process, a crucial step in preserving bodies for the afterlife. Weighing of the Heart: A central belief in Egyptian mythology involved the weighing of the heart against the feather of Ma'at (truth) in the Hall of Two Truths. Anubis was often depicted overseeing this ceremony, ensuring fairness. Guide and Conductor: Anubis was sometimes seen as a guide, leading the deceased through the underworld and towards Osiris, the god of the underworld. Worship and Depictions: Appearance: Anubis was most commonly depicted as a black jackal or a man with the head of a black jackal. Black was associated with rebirth and the fertile Nile River. Offerings: Egyptians made offerings to Anubis, often in the form of food, drink, or prayers, to ensure the safe passage of their loved ones into the afterlife. Cult Centers: While Anubis was worshipped throughout Egypt, his cult center was particularly prominent in the city of Cynopolis (modern-day El-Bahnasa). Hymns and Prayers: Prayers and hymns were dedicated to Anubis, seeking his protection and guidance for the deceased. Shifting Importance: Early Dynasties: In the Early Dynastic Period and Old Kingdom (c. 3100-2100 BCE), Anubis held a prominent position as the primary god of the dead. Later Developments: With the rise of Osiris as the central god of the underworld, Anubis' role shifted to that of an assistant and facilitator in the afterlife journey. Anubis' legacy endures as a symbol of death, transformation, and the hope for a peaceful afterlife.
Join the Boozy Bitches as they discuss Elmer McCurdy, a mummified corpse from the early 1900s who traveled around the country before landing in an old amusement park. He was finally discovered in the 1970s by a film crew for the Six Million Dollar Man.

There are a million idioms about death: It's "the only certainty in life." It's "the end of the road." It's "the great equalizer." But even as adults, death can be impossibly difficult to understand and process, let alone to know the best way to explain death to our kids. Mortician Victor M. Sweeney joins the conversation to share his wisdom on how to answer our kids' questions, and why it's important to include them and be honest with them rather than try to shield them or protect them from grief. Stick to the end for a segment on good and bad death scenes in children's movies! Episode 91 of Modern Dadhood gets right down to business with Adam and Marc chatting about discussions they've had with their kids around the concept of death. They share about their own experiences with attending funerals, and how they've broached the subject when their kid have brought it up. They introduce Victor M. Sweeney into the conversation. Victor is a dad of 4 who has worked in the funeral industry for the last 15 years, earning the reputation of a sought-after funeral director and mortician. Victor opens up about his career, the relationship between his line of work and his family, and some ideas on how to include young people in the death process.Post interview, Marc names a number of death-related scenes in kids movies and the guys rate them on a "helpful or hurtful" scale, debating whether the scenes could support a kid's understanding of death, or simply traumatize them.Links:Wired Segment 1Wired Segment 2Wired Segment 3Wired Segment 4Victor M.
