About this episode
An indie yarn maker’s popularity skyrockets on social media platforms in the mid-2000s and her online store is booming—until customers start to complain about diminished quality and delays in orders. Then her shop sends an email claiming she's died. But … has she? Take a peek into the world of “pseudocide”—faking one's own death—and the lengths people will go to in order to disappear.
