ProEpilogue
Welcome to
Hello
Hi, I’m J Fitzpatrick, founder and host of ProEpilogue- the podcast where you are the special guest. I created this podcast to help people share heartfelt messages with the ones they love, messages meant to be heard posthumously. Whether it’s a story, a memory, or a simple “I love you,” your voice can bring comfort, connection, and peace when it’s needed most.

My Story
My life is pretty great. I’m married to an amazing woman who I met in a random chat room on the internet in 1998. (You can listen to that episode right here!) We have two awesome kids: a sophomore in college and a sophomore in high school. Fortunately, our kids still enjoy hanging out with us so we spend as much time together as we can enjoying the simple things like a good family dinner, playing games, and staying active. ​In April 2024, life threw us a curveball. After a routine blood test, I was hospitalized and diagnosed with blood cancer (later identified as Chronic Myeloid Leukemia). During my stay in the hospital, I was scared of the unknown; petrified that my time with my family was exponentially limited. I wrote about my feelings in a journal and recorded my thoughts in voice memos on my phone, and that’s when I conceived the initial concept of ProEpilogue.

You're probably thinking, "But why a podcast? Why not just tell your loved ones how you feel?” Trust me, I do. Everyday. But there are stories, memories, and words of wisdom that are best shared when the time is right. ProEpilogue offers a fun and unique way to carry your love beyond this lifetime; to speak beyond goodbye. Your personalized episode will bring peace, smiles, and love when it's needed most. And best of all...in your own voice.
How Does it Work?
Recording a podcast is easy and fun. As the host, my job is to guide you through each step of the process and there are three simple steps. Here's how it works.​
Step 1. You and I will connect in person, on the phone, or via an online meeting to discuss the details of what your episode will be about, the date and time of our recording session, and the recording logistics. This typically takes no more than 30 minutes.​​​
​
Step 2. On the scheduled date and time, we'll connect to record your episode. We'll either meet in person or I'll send you a link to meet online. This can take anywhere from 40 - 60 minutes.​​​
Step 3. Once I have the audio file recorded, I will edit it in post-production and produce a final product, a 30 minute, personalized episode. Post-production can take up to two weeks. Once the episode is finalized, you will be given an electronic audio file playable on any device.​
