In this first episode of "Death And," mortician and funeral director Victor M. Sweeney welcomes comedian Pete Holmes to dive into the intersection of death and stand-up comedy. The conversation explores how both death and comedy are surprisingly linked by truth, vulnerability, and the ability to process the hard parts of life. Pete shares his spiritual perspective on death, relating it to consciousness and the idea of "dying before you die" to fully live, while Victor offers insights from his daily work with loss and how people often misunderstand or fear death.
