In this episode of "Death And," mortician Victor M. Sweeney sits down with nonfiction writer Colin Dickey to explore the fascinating intersection of death and storytelling. Together, they discuss how storytelling shapes the way we remember and commemorate the dead, reflecting on everything from historical burial practices to the significance of ghost stories and family rituals. Colin shares how his own fear of mortality led him to write about death, and the two delve into how different cultures and time periods approach mourning and honoring the deceased. The conversation is filled with personal anecdotes—ranging from traditions of grave goods to the emotional weight of digging graves—and considers how storytelling not only helps families process loss but also keeps the memory of loved ones alive.
