Death Over Dinner
The global movement Death Over Dinner encourages friends, colleagues, and even total strangers to get together, share a meal, and build healthier relationships with their own mortality by discussing ideas and feelings about death. In this documentary series, join a group of strangers in London who gather to explore their own brushes with loss, reflect on what it means to mourn, and wonder what happens after we shuffle off this mortal coil. Listen in as these folks look for answers to the questions about death that most of us are too afraid to ask.
