Season Premiere: Driveway Elegies

This episode contains strong language.

On the first episode of the new Modern Love podcast, we hear from two women who examine their lives through the contents of their homes — the car in the driveway, the stained teacups, the razor and shaving cream by the sink. Though easy to ignore, these everyday objects often tell a larger story.

Featured stories:

  • “Bye Bye ‘Family’ Minivan," Kyrie Robinson
  • “Tracking the Demise of My Marriage on Google Maps,” Maggie Smith


Maggie’s story was narrated by Audm. To hear more audio stories from publishers like The New York Times, download Audm for iPhone or Android.
