About this listen
In this unforgettable episode of Nobody Told Me, we sit down with Rossana D’Antonio — engineer, truth-seeker, and author of the haunting memoir 26 Seconds: Grief and Blame in the Aftermath of Losing My Brother in a Plane Crash. Rosanna talks about the day her younger brother Cesare died in a commercial plane crash just moments before he was supposed to land safely.
But this isn’t just a story about a tragedy. It’s about what happens after the cameras leave. After the system points fingers. After your loved one is blamed for their own death.
Rossana opens up about the heartbreak of losing Cesare, the painful process of watching him be scapegoated by the airline industry, and the years she spent digging through wreckage — literal and emotional — to uncover the truth. Together, we talk about grief, rage, silence, memory, and what it means to become your loved one’s final advocate.
This conversation is raw, real, and deeply human. If you’ve ever felt powerless after a loss, or if you’ve ever had to fight to be believed, Rossana’s words will stay with you long after the episode ends.
