Down to a sunless sea: Episode 15: Death is not something that can be kept at a distance

June 30, 2020

General content note for the series: death, dementia, old age, mental health issues

Extra content note: bereavement, pain, terminal illness (including cancer) and the caste system

In the seventh full episode of the podcast using content funded by the British Podcast Awards and the Wellcome Trust I talk to Khyati Tripathi about studying death. This is an episode about understanding and navigating mortality and creating spaces where we can talk about difficult and taboo topics.
