If you were expecting a sad, depressing podcast about death... this isn't it! Nikki Boyer created the podcast Dying For Sex, which was named Podcast of the Year by the Ambies. Now, she's introducing us to Reverend Peggy, who has been present for the final moments of nearly 2,000 people. A lead chaplain at one of the world’s most renowned hospitals, Peggy shares with Nikki the most riveting end-of-life stories from her 20-year career in spiritual care, with one goal in mind: to help everyone be a little less afraid of death.

"Nikki and Peggy have this beautiful warmth together and you’ll find yourself wanting to hug them or someone you love. It won’t be all tears, they’re also great at bringing the humour and lightness to the conversation."

"Peggy’s sharing moving, tear-jerking end-of-life stories from her career in spiritual care in a way that will have you laughing as much as crying. My favorite thing is how it’s showing off a positive side of prayer and what it can do for some people—the calming chanting of Our Father, the moments we spend focusing our energy on people who are passing, Peggy is walking these people home. It means something. And it can be funny, too."
