About this podcast
Are you intrigued, curious, or scared to death by death? Join the party(!) for our ongoing discussion, as each new episode attempts to ease our death anxiety (and maybe yours along the way!) with strange facts, historical Darwinism, and more gallows humor than your weird uncle brings to Thanksgiving dinner. Pull up a seat at our existential tea party, as we dust off the Ouija board and invite Death in to ask life's most enduring riddles—What's it all about? Where do we go after we depart this mortal coil? Why are they named finger sandwiches? Because that's really misleading. Join us as we flesh out answers to our deepest, darkest questions on the new podcast that digs deep: Death Party!
