Dying Laughing with Jessimae

Everyone has an opinion they’re willing to defend for absolutely no good reason.

This week, Jessimae shares the Hills She’ll Die On—the petty, irrational, and occasionally completely justified beliefs she refuses to budge on.

The Big Light is an act of aggression. Speakerphone in public makes your conversation everyone’s conversation. Irish goodbyes are efficient, not rude. And if you say you don’t want dessert and then reach your fork toward hers, prepare for consequences.

Then Jessimae gets into YOUR submissions to decide which hills are valid, which are insane, and which prove some of you should not be allowed to make decisions unsupervised.

No politics. No religion. No actual stakes. Just very strong opinions about shit that absolutely does not matter.

What’s the hill you’ll die on?

EPISODE 47: The Death Scroll: A Postcard From Heaven, Spotify for Your Urn & RIP News

Dying Laughing with Jessimae

Death has a publicist, and apparently she's been BUSY.

Jessimae goes scrolling through the death side of the internet for THE DEATH SCROLL...a collection of weird, funny, touching and completely unhinged stories about death and what happens after we're gone.

A postcard from dead parents arrives 26 years late. Spotify and Liquid Death create an urn that can play your music for eternity. A daughter goes to check on her sick father, finds the locks changed and ends up climbing through a window—only to discover an even stranger situation involving his home. And the death of “Barely Breathing” singer Duncan Sheik presents an unfortunate moral dilemma for comedians everywhere.

Is it a sign or a postal fuckup? What's playing from your urn for eternity? And what the actual fuck is happening on the internet?

Welcome to The Death Scroll. The internet remains undefeated.

EPISODE 46: Marijuana & Meditation - How To Grieve And Still Live Life

Dying Laughing with Jessimae

In this rereleased episode, (Part * of Grief Survival Guide miniseries) Marijuana & Meditation: How To Grieve And Still Live Life, Jessimae originally released as part of Jessimae’s Grief Survival Guide, Meditation and Marijuana goes back into the vault to answer one very simple question: How do you grieve someone you love and still live your life?

After losing her mom, meditation and marijuana became part of Jessimae’s healing process, along with moving to upstate New York to be near her family, and entering the very real “I DO NOT GIVE A FUCK HOW I LOOK” phase of grief.

Jessimae gets into the strange ways emotional pain can show up in the body, finding whatever helps you get through the day, Blue Zones, longevity, libations, and learning that healing doesn’t always look particularly… healed.

Because there’s no perfect way to grieve. Sometimes you meditate. Sometimes you smoke a little weed. Sometimes you eat the bread. You’re still here. Keep fucking living.

EPISODE 45: 44 Things I Know at 44 (And Some Shit I Still Don’t) | Jessimae Peluso

Dying Laughing with Jessimae 

Jessimae turns 44 this week, and instead of pretending she’s unlocked the secrets of the universe, she’s sharing 44 things she know...or at least strongly suspects..at 44.

From love, money, friendship and grief to dogs, getting older, trusting your gut, asking for more, letting people go and why nobody is thinking about you nearly as much as you think they are.

Some lessons took 44 years to learn. Some have required approximately 700 reminders. And some are just the increasingly confident opinions of a woman rapidly running out of fucks.

A birthday episode about getting older, getting wiser and realizing that maybe having everything figured out was never the point.

EPISODE 44: You’re Not Dead Yet: Losing His Dad on 9/11 | Host of Dead Talks podcast David Ferrugio 

Dying Laughing with Jessimae

This week marks 25 years since September 11th. David Ferrugio, host and creator of DeadTalks and author of the upcoming book You’re Not Dead Yet, was just 12 years old when his father died on 9/11.

David joins Jessimae to talk about growing up alongside grief, what it’s like when the entire country remembers the worst day of your life, still wanting our dead dads’ approval, and how losing someone can completely change the way you choose to live.

Most importantly, they remember who David’s father was—not just how he died.

Plus, two fatherless Italians talking about death. So naturally, there are laughs.

EPISODE 42: The Greatest Fumbles in Sports & Life | Jessimae Peluso

Dying Laughing with Jessimae

Everybody drops the ball. This week, Jessimae tackles life's biggest fumbles, from money and missed opportunities to bad relationships, career choices, regret and the mistakes that may have actually changed our lives for the better. She looks back at some of her own questionable decisions, including the opportunities she let go, the relationships she stayed in too long and the moments when hindsight made everything look a lot clearer than it felt at the time.

Plus, listeners share the balls they wish they hadn't dropped, the people they chased instead of their dreams, the grudges they held too long and the choices that seemed like failures but ultimately led them somewhere better. Because sometimes a fumble is just a fumble, and sometimes dropping one ball is how you finally get your hands free to catch another.

EPISODE 40: Putting the FUN in Funeral | Dan the Funeral Man

Dying Laughing with Jessimae

Jessimae sits down with Dan the Funeral Man, a funeral director from Salem, Ohio who's putting some much-needed personality back into death. Think hot pink caskets, leopard-print urns, custom memorials and final send-offs that actually look like the person being remembered.

Dan takes us behind the curtain of the funeral industry to answer the questions everyone secretly wants to ask: What happens to our bodies after we die? What does embalming actually do? Why are funerals so expensive? What should grieving families spend money on, and what can they skip? And, of course, what are the wildest things he's witnessed at a funeral?

They also explore why funeral customs are changing, how families can create more personal celebrations of life, and what spending every day around death has taught Dan about grief, regret and being alive.

Because if you lived loud, why the hell should you be buried beige?

EPISODE.39: When Should You Say Goodbye to a Pet?

Dying Laughing with Jessimae

Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is one of the hardest decisions we'll ever make—but how do you know when it's the right time?

In this episode, Jessimae explores the heartbreaking question every pet owner eventually faces: What makes a good quality of life, and when does holding on become holding them back? Inspired by a moving article written by a palliative care physician, she dives into the world of pet hospice, quality-of-life assessments, pain management, and why animals often hide their suffering until the very end.

Jessimae also shares the deeply personal story of saying goodbye to her soul dog, Carlin, and how she ultimately knew it was time. Along the way, she discusses the emotional weight of euthanasia, the surprising similarities between human and veterinary hospice care, and why sometimes the greatest act of love is letting go on a good day instead of waiting for the worst one.

Whether you're grieving a pet, caring for an aging companion, or simply want to be better prepared for one of life's most difficult moments, this episode offers compassion, practical guidance, and a reminder that loving our animals also means knowing when to say goodbye.
