When Simon Pearce discovered his great-great-uncle Howard's name on a casualty list from WWI, his heart skipped a beat — launching a 20-year quest to piece together the life of a man he never met but now feels deeply connected to... In this moving conversation, Simon, an Ancestry military history expert, shares how Howard's service from China to Gallipoli and ultimate sacrifice in 1915 created ripples through generations of his family. Together we explore how a single postcard, a war diary, and a sister's poignant poem in her autograph book transformed Howard from a name on a memorial to a cherished family member. This episode reminds us that family stories don't end with death, but continue to shape identity, create connection, and inspire purpose across generations — sometimes in the most unexpected ways. 〰️ 🌳 🧬 〰️ 🎧 Ready to discover more stories that could transform your family connections?

Unser Gast diese Woche ist the one and only Simon Pearce! Simon ist Comedy-OG & Walfan. Wir haben einiges zu besprechen: Simon hat 2014 ungetestet sein erstes Soloprogramm gespielt. Maximilian ist seit er Comedy macht teilnahmeunfähig am Leben. Josepha atmet zu tief ein. Außerdem: Wenn Olaf Scholz ein Wetter ist, dann ist er nebliger Nieselregen. Josepha war letztens in der Turnhalle. FaceApps brauchen eine Boomersicherung. Wessen gepiercter Arsch reißt das Lebenswerk von Bob Dylan ein? Wie spaßig sind Affären mit Schweizerinnen? Und wie weit genau riecht Donald Trump nach Pups? Da so‘n Schnuff Autotune rein, vertrau mir!
