À propos de ce contenu audio

Talk Death Delaware is a compassionate podcast about death, grief, hospice care, and end-of-life decision-making in Delaware and beyond.

Hosted by death doula and educator Linda Gould, the show features honest conversations with hospice professionals, advocates, caregivers, and everyday Delawareans about topics many avoid but all of us must face — including hospice care, advance planning, funeral traditions, medical aid-in-dying, natural organic reduction (human composting), caregiver support, and the emotional landscape of loss and grief.

Whether you’re navigating your own grief journey, planning ahead for yourself or a loved one, or simply curious about the culture and practices around dying and remembrance, this podcast brings insight, stories, and compassion to the topic of death.

Episodes include conversations with experts, “Word on the Street” reflections, and in-depth discussions with regular people to demystify death, honor life, and talk openly about what it means to say goodbye.

  • Word on the Street Delaware: Family Fallout and a Cadaver Transport Camper
    Jan 28 2026
    In this Word on the Street Delaware episode of Talk Death Delaware, I’m joined by LB of Newark, Delaware for an honest, darkly humorous, and deeply human conversation about death, family, and what happens when preparation falls short.

    We talk about the real-world confusion families face with hospice care and morphine administration, and how not knowing what to do in end-of-life moments can add trauma to an already devastating loss. LB shares experiences living through two deeply traumatic deaths, and how those moments reshaped his understanding of responsibility, grief, and family dynamics.

    We also dig into why having a single executor matters, what happens when families don’t work together after a parent’s death, and how sometimes one person becomes the glue holding everyone together.

    Along the way, LB brings his signature black humor, stories from life on the road, and insights gained while driving his unforgettable ambulance converted into a camper, complete with a “Refrigerated Cadaver Transport” sticker.

    This episode is raw, local, and very Delaware—exploring life and death on the road, inside families, and in the spaces no one talks about enough.

  • Ep. 10: Aging, Grief, and Facing Mortality: A Conversation About Death and Loss: Mike Ingram
    Jan 19 2026
    In this episode of Talk Death Delaware, we have an honest and deeply reflective conversation about aging, grief, and mortality. I speak with Mike Ingram, a nearly 70-year-old Delaware resident, about how thinking about death changes as we get older and how loss stays with us over time.

    Mike shares his experiences around the tragic death of his son, the loss of his brothers, and the anticipation of losing a brother-in-law. We explore how grief evolves but never fully disappears, why families often struggle to talk openly about death, and how different beliefs about what happens after death shape the way we live.

    This episode highlights why talking about death and dying matters—how these conversations can help us live more intentionally, prepare for end-of-life decisions, and support one another through loss. Talk Death Delaware brings death out of the shadows and into everyday conversation, where it belongs.
