Episode 5: What Happens When We Die? A Theological Deep Dive with Dr. Tristan Kapp
Across cultures, religions, and spiritual traditions, one question has remained at the heart of human existence: What happens when we die?
In this thought-provoking episode, Danny Painter sits down with Dr. Tristan Kapp—better known as The Friendly Satanist—to explore the afterlife through the lens of theology, esotericism, and post-theistic spirituality. As a South African academic, researcher, and human rights activist with a Ph.D. in Religion Studies, Tristan has studied the beliefs surrounding death, the soul, and the afterlife across various traditions—including Christianity, Paganism, Satanism, Occultism, and African Traditional Religions.
Together, we discuss how different cultures and belief systems define the journey beyond life, from notions of heaven and reincarnation to ancestral connections and spiritual evolution. What do these perspectives reveal about the nature of existence? And how do our beliefs about death shape the way we live?
This episode will challenge your understanding of the afterlife, offering new perspectives on what might be waiting on the other side.
