Your favourite duo of death is back for season three! After some super exciting Philotimo Life updates (including news on a new episode schedule, and Philotimo corporate grief coaching), you'll hear from Dr. Susan Srigley.  Susan is a Professor of Religions and Cultures at Nipissing University, Ontario, Canada.  In this episode, you'll explore the need for higher-level death education and... a death cake cafe?   Links: Lifting the Lid, Why Death Education Matters To Young People w/ Prof Susan Srigley and Death Ambassadors  Death Denial: Hiding and Camouflaging Death  The Problem with Death Avoidance Death Literacy is Life Literacy Follow Dr.Susan Srigley on Instagram!

Whether it was Bambi’s mom, Simba’s dad, or Ellie from Up, everyone remembers their first mentally scarring Disney death.  In this episode, your hosts dig up some repressed childhood memories by discussing their most memorable deaths from Disney. We’ll then compare these to a published psychological study of death in Disney movies to see what they’re teaching our children about mortality. It turns out that the kids of today (and yesterday!) have been exposed to far more death than you might think. But that’s not a bad thing… Hakuna Matata, and all that. Happy listening!

There’s an irony in kicking off season two with an episode about end-of-life planning. It’s lost on your hosts as we bring in an industry expert on the subject! Mallory McGrath is the Founder & CEO of Viive Planning, and also champions the importance of discussing death with children… a challenge all parents face, and very few are prepared to handle. After learning Mallory’s story about how she entered the field, we’ll learn some valuable truths about what to expect when prepping for the final journey. These truths then come in handy for a famous inheritance dispute pop quiz! Join us as we address the state of… well, estates.  Links: Check out Mallory McGrath and Viive Planning Premature Menopause via She 2.0 Podcast Bio Urns - Turning yourself into a tree What is Swedish Death Cleaning?

Surprise!  Deathmedians, spousal deaths, and widhoe-ing… Join your macabre MCs, Maria and Ammo, as we bring Philotimo back to life with this bonus intro episode – two weeks early. We’ll start by catching you up on our improved format, release schedule, and what to expect from season two.  We’ll then bring in Tawny Platis, host of the super-popular podcast, Death is Hilarious, where she chats with others about using dark humour to cope with grief. You’ll also know her from her “Trashy Widowed Aunt” TikTok sketches that bring widows together, globally.  Finally, we’ll explore how Philotimo Life fits into the larger “Deathmedian” space. Ooooh! It’s great to be back, and it’s better to know we’re not alone. Links: Death is Hilarious – Follow Tawny on social media!

Pop quiz: how many stages of grief are there? ...WRONG! The question should be, which grief model applies to you and in which way? In this episode, Maria and Ammo go through entirely different models of grieving. That’s right – there’s more than just the five stages model that we’re all so familiar with… but they also touch on why you’re remembering that one incorrectly, too! Focusing on the story of a man called Edgar, they apply the Elisabeth Kubler-Ross ‘Five Stages Model’ and other ones such as the ‘Attachment Model,’ the ‘Phase Model,’ and more. Happy listening!

Gone are the days of stepping over plague-ridden corpses in the street, popcorn in hand, on your way to catch the latest execution. While that’s obviously a good thing, it’s had some interesting effects on how we view death as a society.  Join Maria and Ammo as they journey through Philippe Ariès’ seminal ‘Western Attitudes Toward Death from the Middle Ages to the Present.’ This book serves as a guide to how society has viewed death over four distinct eras, ‘Tame Death,’ ‘One’s Own Death,’ ‘Remote and Imminent death,’ and ‘Forbidden Death.’ And if those aren’t ominous enough, there might just be an updated era, too...

According to the laws here in Canada, grief only affects you for three days… because that’s when your employer is federally entitled to stop paying you.  From industrial revolution-era labour laws to a game of “bereavement laws – true or false?”, join Maria and Ammo as they uncover just how little The Boss Man cares. Finally, they’ve got some pointers to help workplaces better equip themselves for when an employee’s loved one passes away. Happy listening!

It’s rewind time! What’s the point in talking about all things death if you don’t mention the gnarly obsession that some ancient civilizations had for it?  In this episode, Maria and Ammo each pick out some ancient civilizations together and learn about their perspective on mortality and death. From the very problematic Zeus to mummification, terrible pronunciations, and even some unexpected impressions – enjoy this last ride through history. Happy listening!

Welcome thanatology. Or, as we like to call it – Death 101.  In this episode, Maria teaches you (and Ammo) what exactly this scientific study of death is and why education in this area is so very important. There are also some key goals in education in the thanatology space, which they both explore. These goals are based on thanatology to live a better, happier life… a Philotimo Life! From helping in personal enrichment, future planning, and participating in society, all the way to vocational training and dealing with loss – you’ll see why they’re both so hot on death literacy.

In our very first episode, Maria and Ammo answer the big question: What is Philotimo Life? But before that, they have to talk a little bit about what the word Philotimo means, how they met, and why this podcast isn’t as morbid as you think it is... You’ll also get to understand what they bring to the table and their (very different) experiences with death. Finally, you’ll hear the big audacious dreams for the young Philotimo Life, and what to expect from season one.
