Each guest shares raw stories of grief, loss, or unique perspectives that challenge the “don’t talk about death” taboo. Grief doesn’t end—it evolves. After losing his father on September 11th at just 12 years old, David discovered the power of conversation. Through laughter, tears, and honest dialogue, DEAD Talks helps make it a little easier to talk about death, mourning, trauma, and the life that continues beyond it.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Connect with DEAD Talks</strong><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCB_jnuH15XMk2Vx_7_-aIAw">⁠YouTube⁠</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/DeadTalkingPodcast/">⁠Facebook⁠</a> | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/deadtalkspodcast/?hl=en">⁠Instagram⁠</a> | <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@deadtalkspodcast">⁠TikTok⁠</a> | <a href="http://www.deadtalks.net/?utm_source=chatgpt.com">⁠www.deadtalks.net⁠</a></p>
