It affects us all and is a reality for everyone we know. Yet, many of us never talk about it, even with those closest to us. This show’s aim is to help make death a more natural topic of conversation. Every week, people from diverse backgrounds and with varied beliefs answer 7 questions about death. These intimate conversations run the gamut from funny to heart-breaking. Some may inspire you. All are thought-provoking. This podcast is hosted and produced by Beth Janzen and airs weekly on Wednesdays on CJSR, a volunteer community radio station in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
