DEAD Talks - Podcast Rankings and reviews

He’s clear-headed. No performance, no handholding, no forced sentiment. Just real conversations with people who have lived through loss—and a host who actually listens. I love that he says moving on is a choice. Not a prescription. Not a duty. Just… one way to go. Or not. I also love that he doesn’t pretend to be soft. When people hear his story—his dad dying in 9/11—and say “Oh god, I’m sorry,” and he answers “Why? You didn’t kill him,” I laugh every time. Because it’s honest. Because it breaks the script. He’s open in all directions. He doesn’t care what you believe. He’s not selling anything. He’s just asking the right questions, and letting people answer in whatever shape they’re in. This is the one I return to. Especially on the days I don’t want to be told how to grieve.

This is a pure, funny and sometimes mind blowing podcast about what may happen after we die. It’s been a balm for my owning grieving experience. Thank you David

This podcast was so refreshing to hear not only people who understand grief and the craziness that comes after someone passes, but also how they live on and deal from a multitude of perspectives.

Grief feels more like fear than anything and feeling alone makes it worse. This is a safe space to open up and realize we all experience grief if we’re lucky to live long enough to have it happen.

On top of that, some good discussion on topics that need more spotlight and great insights that leave you thinking. There is an open mindedness that gives room for conversation pertaining to subjects such as science and religion with curiosity and a desire to learn.

Understanding death can help us celebrate life more. That is the greatest gift we can give to our loved ones who are gone. To live well.

Thank you for creating this podcast!!

I don’t think we have a general understanding of death in our culture today. David has guests that offer us different experiences and perspectives on death and dying that we wouldn’t have access to experience otherwise. His interviews are always thought provoking, honest and respectful. I’ve been listening to Dead Talks for over a year and I’m truly grateful to David for the work he does.
