When I started this podcast, I soon realized that I was exploring death from three different vantage points: from the view of people with a terminal illness, from my own as a healthy person, and from the view of a child learning about death for the first time. My son started asking questions about death when he was two. At first, I didn’t really know how to answer his questions. But now that he’s almost five, our conversations about death are as natural as our conversations about detectives, rocket ships, and lunch.

In the second-to-last episode, you’ll hear me and my son Leon talk about death, his thoughts on an afterlife, and…Curious George.

Music: “Barefoot” by Chad Crouch and “Miracles of Childhood” by Lobo Loco
