  • I’m biased, but still.

    I’m the editor of this podcast, so I am very biased about its rating. Over the course of editing these episodes I get to listen to them many times and each guest is so great that each pass-through adds something new to my experience. This podcast brings you such a diversity of perspectives, to talk about the things we don’t talk about enough.

  • Interesting Interviews

    I'm ahuge fan and heavy user of the We Croak app, and when an episode of the podcast arrives I'm eager to listen and learn more. The host asks good questions, and the guests are interesting. There are many podcasts about death and dying, this one is worth trying. Highly recommended.

  • Changed the way I think about life

    Although this podcast is talking about death, it’s really about living your life with more purpose and intention. From the very first episode, this podcast (and its companion app) have helped me think differently about living in the now right up until the very end. I’ll keep listening thinking about death because the awareness that time is precious is making my life better today.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

44| Jane Callahan
Q: How do you balance expectations about a 'peaceful' death with the reality that some situations don't go as planned?
You acknowledge that death can be beautiful and also harsh; honest conversations and setting realistic expectations are essential so families aren't promised an outcome that cannot be delivered.
44| Jane Callahan
Q: What does a Vigil involve and why is it important for the dying person and their support network?
A Vigil is the active dying period that can last up to two weeks; doulas help design a comforting environment, bring in meaningful objects and sounds, and support both the dying person and the caregivers with presence and planning.
44| Jane Callahan
Q: Tell me why you no longer believe doulas are a scam and why an informed advocate is needed at these special times.
I realized my own shortcomings and learned that many people don't know what they don't know; a doula provides holistic, non-judgmental guidance and helps people think through needs and options before a crisis hits.
43| Elizabeth Bruenig
Q: What are the core objections to the death penalty as discussed in the episode?
The main objections include the lack of deterrence, racial and socioeconomic unfairness, risk of executing innocent people, and the existence of humane flaws and botches in executions.
43| Elizabeth Bruenig
Q: How did capital punishment become your beat and where did witnessing begin?
Bruenig describes being drawn to capital punishment due to its life-and-death stakes, the desire for transparency, and a 2020 surge of federal executions that opened a public window through media witnesses.
