About Death With Dignity Podcast

The Death With Dignity Podcast was founded by Andrew Flack, a 33-year-old living with terminal cancer, to explore the emotional, spiritual, and practical realities of end-of-life choice. Through conversations with experts from a range of backgrounds, Andrew created a space for honest dialogue that delved deeply into the social, theological and political challenges surrounding Medical Aid in Dying (MAID). After Andrew’s passing, his friend and co-host Hasban Shaikh continued the podcast to honor his legacy, carrying forward its mission to explore stories and perspectives on what it means to die with dignity.
