Tunng Presents The Dead Club Podcast with Alain De Botton.
In this episode of The Dead Club Podcast, Sam speaks to Alain De Botton. Alain is a Swiss born British philosopher and author. His books discuss various contemporary subjects and themes, emphasising philosophy's relevance to everyday life. He is also the founder of The School of Life.
Sam discovered The School of Life via YouTube, including several short talks on the subject of death. His conversation with Alain explores cultural attitudes to death including the question of how we face the reality of our own mortality when many of us no longer accept the simple comforting answers that religion offers.
The Dead Club Podcast is an 8 part podcast series that brings to life British band, Tunng’s ground-breaking collaborative musical project, Dead Club: a meditation on loss and a riotous trip through life in all its goodness, oddness and wonder.
We have interviewed people who have studied death, written about it, and documented it, but also those whose lives have touched it and have been close to it as well those for whom death is all in a day’s work. In this podcast series we’ll hear their voices. We’ll hear from Philosopher AC Grayling, author, Max Porter, illusionist, Derren Brown, musician Speech Debelle, author and palliative care Physician Kathryn Mannix, philosopher and writer Alain De Botton, poetry editor of the New Yorker, Kevin Young and Professor of Forensic Anthropology, Dame Sue Black. Each episode will present one of these conversations in depth, in all its detail. Underpinning and punctuating each episode is a soundscape formed from the new music we're creating for this album, as well as our own voices talking about the subject and what it means to us. There will also be some silliness and some spontaneity and some of that beautiful and unique wonkiness that makes us Tunng.
If you or somebody you know needs support in relation to any aspect of death, dying or grief you may find the following sites useful.
Tunng Presents The Dead Club Podcast is a Stabl production and was made possible in part thanks to public funding from the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
