What does it mean to truly rethink the end of life? In this episode of DEAD Talks, Dr. Shoshana Ungerleider — practicing internal medicine physician, founder of End Well, host of the TED Health Podcast, and leading healthcare advocate — brings a powerful perspective on how society views death, dying, and legacy.
Dr. Shoshana shares her mission to transform the conversation around death in medicine and beyond. We discuss how patients and families can approach end-of-life care with compassion, how healthcare systems can better support dignity in dying, and why talking about mortality is essential for living fully.

About DEAD Talks
DEAD Talks with David Ferrugio approaches death differently. 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.
