One dead dad. A box of ashes. And a mysterious past.
Chris Garcia’s dad had one dying wish: That his family scatter his ashes off the coast of Cuba — the country he was born in, and the country that would break him. Chris’s mom? She doesn’t give a crap about dying wishes. She’s vowed to never go back to Cuba again.
So for now, the ashes are sitting on a shelf in a closet, between a Paul McCartney record and a Gizmo Halloween mask. As Chris tries to do right by his dad, he sets out to uncover the truth about a man he barely knew, who survived Castro’s labor camps only to lose his way in search of the American dream.
Scattered, a 6-part podcast series from WNYC Studios, drops on Oct. 23, 2019.
