In 2023, 60% of Americans chose to be cremated instead of having a traditional burial. If that trend continues, do cemeteries need to be worried about the future? Loren Rhoads, author of 222 Cemeteries To See Before You Die (which is coming out on August 27), explains how old cemeteries are working to bring in the living…and tells us about new and experimental ways to be buried and memorialized.

"I hope the adventures in this book inspire you to explore a cemetery. It's good for the cemetery—and I promise it will be good for you." This is how Loren Rhoads welcomes readers to indulge in her latest cemetery book, 'Death's Garden Revisited: Personal Relationships with Cemeteries'. Loren, who is the editor, says the book is a "collection of over two dozen essays and more than two hundred photographs involving twenty-seven contributors, ranging from spoken word diva Lydia Lunch and artist/poet Jane Handel to ceramics artist Mary Jo Bole. The contributorsincluded writers for the LA Weekly, zinesters, underground musicians, and high school girls." Loren, who is also the author of '199 Cemeteries to See Before You Die' and 'Wish You Were Here: Adventures in Cemetery Travel', joins Jennie and Dianne in a delightful discussion about the book and her relationship with those who contributed to it, and how her own relationship with cemeteries began and her Ordinary Extraordinary career as a writer of not only books about cemeteries, but also fiction in the realms of horror, fantasy and sci-fi.

If you haven't already been adding cemeteries to your travel itineraries, then you've been missing out. These quiet, contemplative places might be filled with the bones and ashes of the deceased, but they hold a lot more than meets the eye. Cemeteries are full of history, both in terms of what (or, rather, who) lies beneath, and in the stories of their construction. Some were built by famous architects, others dreamt up by creative horticulturalists, and some were designed to invite people in as places of recreation. These are not just places to remember loved ones. They are also places full of stories and teeming with life. Today, Angie Orth welcomes Loren Rhoads, author of 199 Cemeteries to See Before You Die and Wish You Were Here: Adventures in Cemetery Travel. In the early '90s, a travel hiccup forced her to alter her original itinerary, eventually landing her in a London bookshop, piquing her interest in cemeteries as travel destinations. You'll hear about what keeps drawing her to these sacred spaces, and how attitudes about enjoying cemetery grounds have changed throughout history. You'll hear a few historical tidbits about some of the world's most famous cemeteries, and why they're encouraging people to visit. Loren also shares some of her favorite cemeteries in the US and abroad, and what made those visits so impactful.   What You'll Learn: ●     Why cemeteries should be added to your travel plans (2:49)●     The real reason Père Lachaise is the most-visited cemetery in the world (4:38)●     How a historic L.A. cemetery became a popular tourist destination (10:33)●     The many ways to experience a cemetery (13:06)●     Her top 3 unmissable cemeteries (15:51)Connect with Loren Rhoads:Website: https://lorenrhoads.com/Facebook author page: https://www.facebook.com/LorenRhoadsAuthor/Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/morbidloren.bsky.socialTwitter: https://twitter.com/morbidlorenInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/morbidloren/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvTI4Zh74nsCLGmOBqulRRQConnect with Angie Orth:Website + Blog: https://angieaway.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/angieaway/?hl=enConnect with AAA:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/aaa-auto-club-enterprisesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/AAAAutoClubEnterprisesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/AAAAutoClubEnterprisesTraveling with AAA Podcast: https://www.ace.aaa.com/travel/information/traveling-with-aaa-podcastPlan your next vacation with AAA: https://aaa.com/travel

Cemeteries are a rather new invention in human history, created only 10-15,000 years ago. We've come a long way from stopping to smell the proverbial roses… instead of rotting flesh. But how do these resting grounds for the deceased become tourist destinations for the living?

It is my distinct pleasure to welcome back Loren Rhoads. Loren first appeared on Episode 49 of SRTN. In this conversation we discuss her new book This Morbid Life and dig into issues of how to deal with death, what it means for our life, the meaning of things, flowers, anatomy, something and nothing.

"My life changed when I read Dracula at age 10 and then again when I saw Star Wars at 13. Telling true stories came much later, but to me, it’s all interconnected.  My latest book, Tales for the Camp Fire: A Charity Anthology Benefiting Wildfire Relief, came out in May 2019. Northern California’s horror writers came together to raise money for survivors of last year’s devastating wildfire. Contributors include Nancy Etchemendy, Dana Fredsti, Ross Lockwood, Erika Mailman, Gene O’Neill, and more. It was my honor to serve as editor for the project. 199 Cemeteries to See Before You Die guidebook to cemeteries around the world, came out in a gloriously illustrated full-color hardcover from Black Dog & Leventhal Books in October 2017. The UK edition was published in paperback by Sphere Books. Part cemetery history, part travel memoir Wish You Were Here: Adventures in Cemetery Travel collects my essays from Gothic.Net, Morbid Outlook, Eleven Eleven, and Morbid Curiosity magazine, alongside pieces written specifically for the book. The revised second edition was published by Automatism Press in July 2017.  My space opera trilogy In The Wake of the Templars — The Dangerous Type, Kill By Numbers, and No More Heroes — were published by Night Shade Books in 2015. Publishers Weekly said the trilogy brought grimdark to space opera.  Lost Angels, the first book in the As Above, So Below series, is the story of the succubus Lorelei, who pursues the angel Azaziel, only to find herself possessed by a mortal girl’s ghost. That first novel, co-written with Brian Thomas, was originally published by Black Bed Sheet Books under the title As Above, So Below. A revised second edition came out in April 2016 as Lost Angels, published by Automatism Press. A sequel called Angelus Rose is in the works.  Between 1996 and 2006, I edited the cult nonfiction magazine Morbid Curiosity. I still believe curiosity is a radical, transformative trait.

After a successful fight against a proposed "bathroom bill" in 2016, could Massachusetts voters in 2018 repeal the rights granted to transgender people by Governor Charlie Baker? Will Massachusetts follow Oregon and California -- and other countries around the world -- in adding a third gender option for driver's licenses? And how will HIV/AIDS programs be affected as public health funds are being funneled to battle the opioids crisis? We speak with three local experts and activists about the LGBTQ stories and issues you need to know. Guests: Janson Wu, executive director of Boston GLAD; Grace Sterling Stowell, executive director of BAGLY; and E.J.

G&D 09-2809For ten years, Morbid Curiosity was a one-of-a-kind underground magazine that gained a devoted following for its celebration of absurd, grotesque, and unusual tales — all true — submitted from contributors around the country and across the world. Loren Rhoads, creator and editor of the magazine, has compiled her favorite stories from all ten issues in this sometimes shocking, occasionally gruesome, always fascinating, anthology.This quirky book is filled with tales from ordinary people — who just happen to have eccentric, sometimes peculiar interests. Ranging from the outrageous (attending a Black Mass, fishing bodies out of San Francisco Bay, making fake snuff films), to the more “mundane” (visiting a torture museum and tracking real vampires), this curiously enjoyable collection of stories, complete with illustrations and informative asides, will entertain and haunt readers long after the final page is turned.
