This week on Podcast in Death, AJ and Tara tackle a topic they openly admit they know almost nothing about: astrology. Which, naturally, makes it the perfect Podcast in Death episode. 😂
Armed with questionable expertise, several internet rabbit holes, and a surprising amount of AI-generated research, they attempt to answer one of the most important questions in the In Death universe:
✨ What are Eve and Roarke’s zodiac signs? ✨
The only canon clues? Peabody proudly declares herself a Sagittarius, and Roarke vaguely claims he was born in early October. From there, all bets are off.
Along the way, AJ and Tara debate:
Why Peabody being a Sagittarius actually makes a frightening amount of sense
Whether Roarke is truly a Libra… or secretly a textbook Scorpio
Why Eve Dallas might be the most Aries person to ever Aries
Which signs fit (and absolutely do not fit) Eve’s personality
Whether Mavis is basically a walking Leo stereotype
Astrological compatibility between Eve, Roarke, Peabody, and the rest of the gang
How deep down the astrology rabbit hole two non-astrologers can fall before things get weird
The discussion quickly turns into a spirited mix of literary analysis, character psychology, and complete speculation—and honestly, that’s half the fun.
Also in this episode:
❤️ AJ shares the difficult news of saying goodbye to Lily after nearly fifteen years, and talks about the compassionate in-home veterinary service that helped make her final day peaceful and comfortable.
📚 Listener Anne sends in some fantastic future episode ideas, including review-the-reviews episodes, headcanon deep dives, and exploring possible connections between the In Death universe and Nora Roberts’ other series.
🔍 AJ introduces his brand-new project, FindANora.com, a tool designed to help readers discover their next Nora Roberts book based on themes, genres, settings, and moods. (Because sometimes you need a Nora recommendation and Emily can’t be available 24/7.)
And finally, AJ and Tara discuss the upcoming sixth anniversary of Podcast in Death and the show’s eventual move to an every-other-week schedule.
So grab your birth chart, your murder board, and maybe a glass of whatever they’re serving at the Aquarius Bar, because this week we’re putting the entire In Death cast under the astrological microscope.
What sign do YOU think Eve Dallas is? 🌟
This week’s episode is a little of an… archaeological find: we recorded it exactly two years ago, started editing it, then completely abandoned it and let it fade into obscurity… […]
