Jake is a curious person who simply won’t relent in his indefinite search to definitively distract himself from death. Or he just wants to know how everything works and what everyone thinks. Either way, he has questions and some would argue his inventory is substantial, so he’s going to ask away. Meanwhile, there's a pretty good chance he goes mad in the process. [Music: Scott Barman]

Question 2: What is the value of death?
Guest: John Kilroy // John sits down with his son for a wonderful, unfettered, and all-encompassing chat inspired by his recent essay, “The Value of Death.” As he battles cancer for the third time, Jake’s writer-poet father discusses the importance and impact of a single sentence — “I'd rather die and know what counts” — as well as Profound Fun, the Perfect Taco, the afterlife, the nature of reality, and the rewards of craft beer. He also shares two poems inspired by his journey into illness.
