Last Day

Author: Lemonada Media

This is a show about the moments that change us, fundamentally and forever. Each week, host Stephanie Wittels Wachs (Lemonadas co-founder and award-winning queen of darkness and light) is sitting down with a new guest to explore happy/sad stories of survival, resilience and transformation. After three seasons of exploring the "last day" of peoples lives in an effort to understand mass epidemics, Steph was ready for a change herself. Some last days are hopeful. Some are tragic. But at the heart of every last day is also a new beginning. Laugh/cry with us.

Talking to Kids About Drugs
Episode 3
Wednesday, 2 September, 2026

How do we create smart drug education that actually makes an impact on the next generation? After losing their son Charlie to an accidental fentanyl overdose, Ed and Mary Ternan created Song for Charlie to educate young people and their parents about the risks of counterfeit prescription pills and other drugs. In this episode, Stephanie talks to Ed and Marcia Lee Taylor, strategy advisor for the organization, about Charlie's last day and how to have honest conversations with kids about drugs. This episode is made possible by Song for Charlie, the family led non-profit behind the New Drug Talk program—offering free, science-backed resources for parents and caregivers.
