Do You Have a Right to Face Your Own Death?

Woman Inherits the Earth: The Farewell


In this, the The Farewell episode of the pod, Beth and Tess discuss different cultural traditions, the special relationship between grandmother and granddaughter, and how we come to terms with loss. Do we have a right to know about and face our own death, or do our loved ones have a responsibility to protect us from that knowledge?


Content warning: discussions of death and disease.


A note about spoilers: As much as we’d love to make this a spoiler-free podcast, the truth is, we can’t really get much of a discussion going without completely spoiling the plot of the film we’re talking about. If you don’t want to be spoiled, watch the movie before you listen to us.


Special thanks to aceinet, who recorded our intro and outro song, “Floyd Filtertron DA Shuffle.”
