The Q&A board Yahoo Answers is shutting down on May 4. When I heard the news, my first sympathetic thought was for the podcast
My Brother, My Brother and Me; I wasn’t the only person to think of it.

The McElroys now have a podcast empire, and listeners like me have held on as the brothers moved across the country and back again, became parents, and grew up.
