In this episode of With All Due Respect, Megan Powell du Toit and Michael Jensen investigate the unifying anxiety that has risen to the surface of the world's collective consciousness in this time of pandemic: the fear of death.

To begin with Megan and Michael flip through the pages of the novel Lament, which reveals how closely love and agony sit together. 

Then it's time to welcome Dr. Megan Best, an expert in palliative care, who reveals the common attitudes that shape our behaviour as we approach the grave. 

And finally the WADR team ask the ultimate question of each other: what does it mean to die well?
