Chapter 2: What is the heartfelt story about Delia from Ireland?
On our show, This Podcast Will Kill You, we explore the wild world of diseases, their history, biology, and impact today. Vaccines are in part a victim of their own success. They have been so effective in preventing disease and death that we take them for granted.

Hello and welcome to My Favorite Murder, the mini-sode where we read you your stories. You send in emails. We agreed we would read them. What more do you want us to do?
And they can be about anything at this point in life. Yeah. I mean, fuck it, you know? Truly. Would you like to go first? Sure. This one's called Creating New Fears for My Child. Oh. Hello from Virginia. In a recent hometown, y'all asked for our own trash parenting stories, and I am finally in there. Yeah. I was 21 when I had my first child, so basically a baby raising a baby.
And somewhere along the way, I started joking with her about, quote, dropping her off at the fire station. My mom did a similar thing. Because they have the baby drop boxes, and I always thought it was a joke. We even joked about how she would have to tuck her knees because she was probably getting too big for the box. Oh.
One day when she was about five years old, when I dropped her off at her on-base daycare, they informed me that the fire department would be doing an annual walkthrough later in the day. Okay, cool. No big deal. Until her daycare provider called me a few hours later because when my daughter saw the fire truck out front, she ran into a closet screaming, no, don't take me. I'll be good.
That's right. My daughter thought the fire department had come to pick her up and take her away. She was hysterical. Turns out I had successfully made her terrified of all firefighters. Good news, she's now 15 and no longer scared, but it was super fun explaining to her daycare provider that I was actually a terrible parent and to please not report us.
Thank you guys for all that you do and keeping me company on long drives into work, Cecily. And then it says, good luck on the pronunciation. I just go with whatever these days. Looks like Cecily. Cecily or Sicily?

Chapter 3: What chilling family murder story is revealed?
Yeah.
Here's my first story. The subject line is, an Irish hometown story with a difference. Hi, Karen, Georgia, Stephen, Alejandra, and all furry creatures. I love you gals, obviously, as you brighten up my day. It says, brighten up me day. Oh, me day. Because they're Irish. Me day. Me day. I shall brighten up me day. My walks when I'm cooking, et cetera, et cetera.
I first came across your podcast a few years ago when I heard my colleagues giggling in the office with their earphones in. They were all listening to you while working. Nice. So I could tell you about the spooky happenings in the house I grew up in that's over 120 years old, but I'll leave that to another time and tell you about something way better.
I wanted to let you know about a fantastic 83-year-old from Ireland who was a crucial behind-the-scenes part of The Banshees of Vinnishirin. Oh, shit. Did you watch that movie? I loved that movie. We think it's such a lovely story, and of course, Karen's Irish, so we wanted to share it with you.
Delia Berry joined the knitting group through Greystone's cancer support when her husband, Patty, died over 10 years ago. She found friends and comfort from this group and from GCS, so she wanted to give something special back. Something else special about Delia is that she also took in her sister's four children when she lost her sister to cancer many years ago. Oof.
Delia is Jesus's favorite person. She shot to fame having knit the iconic jumpers, sweaters, for Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, and Barry Keoghan in the Oscar-nominated movie The Banshees of Asia. So that movie is like the sweaters are the third lead. Yes, yes. And Delia is the one who made all of them. Amazing.
Also, Colin Farrell's sister, who actually won an Oscar for best supporting Carrie something, has an incredible cardigan that I was obsessed with. I watched it like three times. I wonder if she made it. You can commission one. Oh, that's right. Delia, I need to talk to you. Okay. So Brendan Gleeson has even asked her to knit two more for him since.
What we didn't know before now was that Delia is no stranger to the celebrity world, having knit for Meryl Streep for her role in Dancing at Luganza and having taught Emily Watson how to knit for her role in the movie Little Women. Delia is an international superstar. Teach me how to knit.
She fits knitting in and around her bingo and walks around her town, Greystones, County Wicklow in the Garden of Ireland. In the Garden of Ireland? Is that a saying? You tell me. I can't. How cool is she, right? If you'd like to read more about our famous and generous Delia, you can read all about her in the New York Times, Vogue, the Daily Mail, to name a few. This is the best.

Chapter 4: What was the experience at the cult-like summer camp?
And then she was like, now everybody loves my knitting. And now she needs her own movie. Yeah, she actually does. And like all those stars will come and star in it with her. Stop it. I love it.
I'm mad.
I'm mad I love it so much. Such a good email.
Hi, I'm Kristen Davis, host of the podcast, Are You a Charlotte? Sarah Jessica Parker is here, and she is sharing stories from the very beginning, like the time she forgot we filmed the pilot episode.
I remember some things about shooting the pilot. Right. I have some memories I can fill you in. That you're going to fill me in. Yes, but then you forgot about it in the very long time they took to pick us up. I completely forgot about it.
Listen to Are You a Charlotte? on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I'm Erin Welsh, an ecologist and epidemiologist. And I'm Erin Allman-Updike, also an epidemiologist. On our show, This Podcast Will Kill You, we cover everything from the biology of deadly diseases to the weird history behind them, all with a healthy dose of humor.
Like the time we made a surprising discovery about scabies. When you look at pictures of especially these particular mites, they look more like tardigrades, like water bears than they do ticks.
They absolutely do.
