Isn’t it awkward to talk about death? While we will all face our own death in the end, somehow, it is still seen as one of society’s taboos. Dead Good brings the conversation to the forefront by asking those questions you are dying to know but might have been too afraid to ask.
Dead Good is a podcast from St Christopher’s Hospice, hosted by comedian Sajeela Kershi. It adopts a playful, at times humorous and, above all, thought-provoking tone. Each episode, a high profile guest shares their own experiences around the topic, challenging the taboos that exist within society.
We’re on a mission to transform the wider conversation around death and dying with stimulating conversations, and in doing so elevate the standards of end of life care for all.
