About This Podcast

Welcome to On Death and Smiling, a podcast that explores the complex journey of grief, loss, and healing. I'm Dylan, and after losing my mother at 16 and my brother at 25, I've spent over 15 years sloppily navigating the ups and downs of grief. In this podcast, we dive into candid, thoughtful conversations about death and mourning—unpacking the emotions we all experience when faced with loss. My personal experiences with grief and a curiosity for the macabre serve as the foundation for open discussions with friends, family, and experts. Together, we'll explore the emotional highs and lows, share insights, and maybe even find some silly gags along the way. Whether you're looking for comfort, community, or a new perspective on grief, join us as we look death in the face with a smile on ours. Let's cry, scream, and laugh together. – Dylan
