Can I Have A Word?

Word 51. Death (with David Mitchell)


Listen Later

Just in time for Halloween, Harry and Phil are joined by novelist and screenwriter David Mitchell to discuss Death. Phil talks about how life is change, and how there should be mental health gyms to keep everyone mentally fit. Meanwhile, Harry talks about grief, making a heartfelt speech about her much-missed aunt, and David explains that art is a mortality hack, that monks invented silent reading, and that death is, in fact, a shade of blue.
