Roots, Revelations & Our Grand Finale: Farewell from Yogi and the Bee
Manage episode 519623129 series 3462759
Well, friends… this is it. Our final episode. Ever. 😢
In this bittersweet send-off, Allie and Bee sit down with Christopher "Chris" Marsden, publishing pro and founder of Modern Book Works, who’s made a career out of turning family histories into gorgeous heirloom books.

But for us? He’s just poking around our family trees for fun… and oh honey, the branches get real tangled.
Chris helps us explore the tangled, fascinating, and sometimes uncomfortable truths buried in their family trees. From mysterious ancestors to the hard realities of history (yes, we talk about the slave-owning part), it’s a reflective ride through legacy, identity, and what it means to know where you come from.
In this episode-
🌿 Christopher shares how his own family mystery sparked a lifelong passion
🧬 We explore the emotional rollercoaster of discovering your roots
🪞 We talk about confronting the past — even when it’s messy
💬 And yes, we still manage to sneak in a few laughs (because it’s us)
But more importantly — we want to say thank you.
To everyone who downloaded, listened, laughed, cringed, and stuck with our silly little podcast: Yogi and the Bee has been a joy, a therapy session, and a celebration of friendship. We’ve had so much fun, but life’s gotten busy, and it’s time to hang up our mics.
So pour a glass, light a candle, or just take a walk with us one last time.
Here’s to the memories, the madness, and the magic of it all. 🥂
With love,
Allie & Bee 💛
