Summary

Death is often a taboo subject. But is it subject to be avoided (and an inevitability to be feared)?

Join us for a candid, real, and destigmatizing conversation about our mortal and temporary lives. We'll speak with listeners about their own perspective, and a professional mortician will take us into the inner room of the funeral home for a frank yet fascinating look at the processes which happen after we're gone.

This is a show about death, but more importantly, it's a conversation about life!

Let's raise (at least) $3000 for William, a caller who's had a rought few years and could benefit from our help: https://www.gofundme.com/forwilliam
