What’s It Like To Die?

Impolite Society: Exploring the Weird, Taboo & Macabre

Death is the last great adventure. Humans have been curious about what happens after we die for millennia and today, we are unpacking everything you’ve ever wanted to know about kicking the bucket. Like the different definitions of death (there is more than one), the stages of death, and what near death experiences can tell us about a potential afterlife.
All this to answer the rude question, what’s it like to die?
That’s what you're in for today on Impolite Society.
