Our new project is Death in the Afternoon; a podcast about all things mortal from The Order of the Good Death.
Death in the Afternoon is a podcast written, researched, and developed by Caitlin Doughty, Sarah Chavez, and Louise Hung of The Order of the Good Death.
Episode one of the eight episode seasons launches mid-October 2018!

Podcast Series
You know how every day someone asks “how are you?” And even if you’re totally dying inside, you just say “fine,” so everyone can go about their day? This show is the opposite of that. A funny/sad/uncomfortable podcast about talking honestly about our pain, our awkwardness, and our humanness, which is not an actual word.
A podcast that focuses on mourning rituals and customs, and holds space at the intersection of life and death. You can expect topics like reproductive loss, illness, suicide, queer and trans burial, tattoos and conversion status, and state violence.
The podcast that talks with game devs on how they’re using death in their games.
A podcast about chronic illness, disability, healthcare and mortality.
A podcast about the relationship between the living and the dead, hosted by Order member Tanya Marsh.
