  • Uncovering the Truth: Behind the Scenes of Exposing Deathcare

    Welcome to Exposing Deathcare, a podcast created to shine a light on the hidden, often dark realities within the funeral industry. I'm Melissa Meadow, or as some of you may know me, The Modern Mortician. This podcast is a platform to expose unethical practices, harmful experiences, and shady dealings that have plagued grieving families, funeral staff, and the industry as a whole. By bringing these stories to light, Exposing Deathcare aims to push for transparency, support those affected by trauma, and encourage necessary reforms in the way deathcare operates.

    Why This Podcast?

    For years, I’ve worked behind and at the front of the scenes in the funeral industry, witnessing the good, the bad, and the shocking. Too often, families face unnecessary upsells, hidden fees, and sometimes outright manipulation when they’re at their most vulnerable.

    Meanwhile, funeral professionals who truly want to help people are too often pressured by corporate greed or unsustainable business practices. This isn't just about exposing what’s broken – it’s about acknowledging the pain caused by these wrongs and fostering a deathcare environment that respects the dead and the living alike.

    Through anonymous interviews, real-life stories from funeral directors and staff, and deep dives into specific issues, Exposing Deathcare tackles the taboo topics that don’t often make it into the public eye. From high-pressure sales tactics to the consequences of toxic workplace cultures, no topic is off-limits.

  • The Curious Case of the Funeral Home of Horror (ID) Return to Nature Penrose

    The Curious Case of the Funeral Home of Horror (ID) Return to Nature Penrose
    Feb 4 2025

    This episode dives into the absolute nightmare that was the Return to Nature Funeral Home in Colorado. Imagine trusting a funeral home with your loved one, only to find out they never cremated them—or worse, buried the wrong body. That’s exactly what happened to dozens of families, and it’s even more horrifying than it sounds.

    Jon and Carie Hallford, the owners, were running a total scam—taking money for cremations that never happened, handing out fake ashes (spoiler: it was concrete dust), and letting nearly 190 bodies rot in a building. This doc breaks down the shocking details, the heartbreaking fallout for the families, and how these two finally got caught. With fraud charges, a $950 million lawsuit, and new laws being put in place because of this mess, it’s a wild ride from start to finish.

    If you’re into true crime with a side of WTF, you don’t want to miss The Curious Case of the Funeral Home of Horror.

    Exposing Deathcare - Season 2 Teaser

    They say the funeral industry is built on dignity, honor, and respect. But what happens when the truth is far from it?

    I’m Your Host M, and this is Exposing Deathcare.

    Season 2 drops in February, and this time, we’re turning our attention to how the funeral industry is portrayed in the media. From documentaries to dramatizations, what’s fact, what’s fiction, and what are they still not telling you?

    Our first episode takes a deep dive into The Curious Case of..., an HBO Max series that unearths shocking real-life scandals. We’ll dissect the episode, expose the realities behind the headlines, and connect it to what families experience every day.

    But let’s be clear—not all funeral homes are bad. Many professionals work tirelessly to serve families with compassion and integrity. This podcast isn’t about attacking the industry as a whole; it’s about exposing the dark corners where families are misled, manipulated, and taken advantage of. Because when you’re grieving, you deserve the truth, not deception.

    This season, we’ll hear firsthand accounts from families who have lived through funeral nightmares, and we’ll break down the horror stories portrayed in the media to help you separate fact from fiction—and make informed choices when it matters most.

    Stay tuned. Subscribe. And be prepared to learn what they don’t want you to know.
