このコンテンツについて

 The Silence Between Hello is about what we inherit from our families and what we leave behind. Each season explores one family member through the artifacts of their lives: voicemails, diary entries, handmade objects, and the complicated legacy of religious fundamentalism. It's about the complexity of love across difference and distance, the weight of faith used as control, and the silence that both protects and harms.Copyright Jenny Skoog Mondesir 人間関係 社会科学

    Ep 1 Uncovering Dad: "The Dig Begins"
    2025/08/12
    What can a 1937 autograph book reveal about a man who spent his life in silence? In this season premiere, Jenny begins an archaeological dig through her father's artifacts, discovering that the "quiet" truck driver she knew was once the most beloved boy in his rural Minnesota school. Using his handwritten diary, million-mile driving certificate, and handcrafted furniture as evidence, she starts to uncover what happened to transform a confident, charismatic child into a man who learned to love sideways. This isn't just grief processing—it's detective work, piecing together the complete picture of a person who lived underneath a carefully constructed identity. Episode 1 sets up the excavation site and reveals the central mystery: When did Dad learn to disappear, and why?

    Episode 7: "I Feel Like I'm Just a Failure of a Mom" - The Fullness of Love
    2025/07/08
    In this final episode, I talk about my mom's final voicemail and life since her funeral. For months, I found myself reaching for my phone on Mondays and Thursdays, the days we usually spoke. The absence of her calls created a negative space in my routine where her voice had been. I would catch myself thinking, "I should tell Mom about this," before remembering she was gone.

    In the end, what remains when everything else falls away is the actual love we managed to create together, day by day, call by call, reaching across all the silences between us.

  • Episode 6: "Who Loves Who More?" - The Language of Love

    Episode 6: "Who Loves Who More?" - The Language of Love
    2025/07/01
    In November 2019, three years before Mom died, I recorded a conversation with both of my parents at their kitchen table in Minnesota. It captures something different than the voicemails - the rhythm of their sixty-year marriage, my father's quiet presence, the ordinary moments that make up a family. Mom’s sense of responsibility for others' well-being was central to her worldview. It shaped how she mothered, how she participated at church, and how she approached marriage. Love, for her, was bound up with duty, with putting others first, with being perpetually available and attentive to needs.
