Finn and the Bell – Snap Judgment.Rumble Strip: Finn and the Bell on Apple Podcasts
Finn Rooney killed himself on January 3, in the afternoon after school. No one predicted it. There were no signs. All that can be said for sure is that there was a flash of high emotion that comes with youth, and there was a gun nearby, and bullets. I also want to thank every single person who talked with me for this show.
To listen to this podcast is one of the most extraordinary experiences of humanity, of community, of life, of death, of loss, of belonging, of compassion, of mystery, and transcendence. My deepest appreciation and gratitude goes out to Tara Reese and all who spoke on these interviews.
And to Erica for having the heart and soul, talent and experience to do this important work so beautifully and honestly. So beautifully done. What a kid. What a community. Can life be any more special, please let his family know how much we care.
Thank you Erica this was very carefully and well done. How can tears not flow with an episode like this. Such bravery from all those who contributed. This is a beautiful tribute to this special boy, his Mom and the community.
It seems that Finn had the capacity to feel deeply and this world can be overwhelming. He made a difference to people, what a gift.
The bell, I love the bell and I wish I grew up in a town with a special bell. This is one for the archives of Hardwick and Greensboro, if not Vermont. It must not be lost. As a Vermonter it makes me proud. Thank you, Erica , for this fine effort.
I truly appreciate the care with which this too brief life of a fine young man was presented. Thank you. I find myself deeply saddened while simultaneously powerfully heartened by the loving resilient honest voices within. I would only add to that what this story emphasizes, celebrate everyone. I hope Tara and her family are blessed with the sounds of baseballs and bells for years to come. Eternal peace for his family and all who knew him. So beautiful that you connected all of us with this story.
I sobbed along with everyone, and felt their loss, and was amazed at their clarity, and how they found just the right words. I guess they were chickens. You give us so much, Erica. I was standing behind them and could NOT resist recording this conversation.
Just fricking beautiful. Thank you so much Beverly…. I want express my gratitude to you, Erica, and to all the people who made this show possible. I also Wonder about the one seemingly provocative, breasted picture- so outside his Norm, yet included in these pics. Beautiful story. I remember walking down those halls of Hazen when I was in school and seeing Finn quite a few times.
Thank you Erica, and my condolences to family, friends, and loved ones. This episode was incredible. Thank you to Finns family and friends for their generous candor, and Erica and her team for producing such an authentic and moving podcast.
Thank you for this incredibly moving story. I am so sorry for your loss. He was an amazing young man. Well done, Erica! Thank you for this heartbreaking, beautiful experience. So much love. What grace, joy and courage Tara had in sharing their family and community story and what skill you showed in honestly and delicately telling it to us. I will think of Finn when I hear bells from now on. Thank you for writing in Chris. A lot. This show left me breathless, Thank you Erica for introducing us to Finn.
What a remarkable child. Tara, your boy is beautiful and a legacy. My heart goes out to you, his dad, his brother, and all the people he touched in his short precious life. May we all aspire to be the person Finn was. Wow, that wrecked me. So many people said such interesting and touching things about a subject that is so sad and complicated. It really gives you hope somehow. While i was listening i kept thinking,partly to distract myself from the story because it is so intense, what a tremendous job you did bringing people, all kinds of different people, together, helping to heal, while most stories in the media today are designed to drive people apart.
Now Finn lives in the memory of everyone who hears this show. Once i was deer hunting and a red fox came by just at sunrise. He sat on a rock and the sun illuminated his red fur so all the ends of the hairs looked as though they had light inside them. Erica, Thank you for telling this story beautifully and with sensitivity. I just made a long overdue donation, prompted into action finally by both this story and the update on Peter Dunning of Hill Farm.
So basically I spent a LOT of time playing in the woods that Peter would come to own just a few years after we moved away. Such a beautiful piece on such an impossibly hard experience…the telling of it was crushingly human and raw. Thank you for your editing and composition of it that unveils so much beauty and grief compassionately.
And thank you endlessly to Tara for sharing her love and grief. We have a suicide problem in Vermont, that has become worse since covid, and I am so grateful to you, Erica, for sharing the exquisite heartbreak of the people who have been left behind just one — one — of these lost Vermonters. Beautiful, painful, poignant, exploding with life and grief and community and transcendence.
This is a gift. Thank you, Erica. Thanks to you Erica for your part and to them for theirs. This came to me and I must share.
Enjoy the parallels. May it soothe. You could be packed up and ready Knowing exactly where to go How come you miss the connection? No use in asking, the answer is nobody knows No use in asking, the answer is nobody knows. Johnny will keep his illusions. What else can he do? And you can pretend that it would be different if it happened to you. Thanks for this episode Erica.
This heartbreaking, yet inspiring story will help shape how I view the world for months or years to come. This is one of those too-rare cases when a profound story somehow lands in the hands of a storyteller who is worthy of being given the honor to tell it.
Thank you, Erica, for helping to show the world what an unbelievable light Finn Rooney shone on this earth and now beyond it. Your telling of this part of his story is so beautiful and so heartbreaking all at the same time.
What a beautifully written and narrated podcast. Finn is truly one of a kind, his love of earth, people and animals is unmatched. Thank you Finn we miss you and love you.
I was moved to tears from the humanity of it and the Vermonty-ness of it. You do Vermont a great honor by collecting our stories the way you do, thank you. This is an amazing piece of radio unlike I have heard in a long time.
It inhabits the strange territory between utterly personal agony and jubilant reverence for beauty and compassion. I felt blessed by her candor and revelation. What an instantaneously attuned seer and oddly circumscribed ululator. What a heartbreaking story told with so much compassion and insight.
