  • Summary

  • In this poignant and deeply personal audio experience, host Maria Luisa Tucker investigates the disappearance of her own father, and uses the many theories that emerge to explore what it means to be a family today. Luisa’s father disappeared into the 3-million-acre Tonto National Forest on a cold February day in 2006. As time passed and no clear information emerged, everyone around her had a different theory about what had happened to him: maybe he’d gotten lost on a hike in the mountains. He could have run off with another woman, or gotten so enraged with his wife and kids that he left to avoid hurting them. Or maybe he walked into the woods to die. Years later, Luisa realized that each theory revealed something about her family, and, in turn, our cultural understanding of love, care, the parent-child relationship, self-sufficiency vs. community, and more. In this five-part series, Luisa weaves together scenes from the search for her father with theory and research about love and family, as well as moments from her life now as a mother. Conversations with her loved ones as well as psychologists, anthropologists, and scholars will challenge listeners' ideas of what family is, or should be.

Perfect rollercoaster- informative but a punch of emotion

I learned a lot about Opioids, and the way it impacted this family. As well as how much your own sadness/depression touches so many people and generations after you. It reminded me of what my father always said, “it’s not just YOUR life, your decisions impact generations after yours”. Sounds like a lot of weight to carry but it’s true. The mind is powerful and if we stay positive, good things will come. You’ll accomplish what you want. It touches the sense of community and love too- this podcast is everywhere and in a good way! :,)
