About Play This At My Funeral
Play This At My Funeral is a deeply fun, slightly macabre, always heartwarming show about the songs that shape our lives — and the ones we’d play at our funerals. Each episode invites a guest to curate the playlist for their own (hypothetical) send-off and share the stories that made those songs matter. In each episode, host Dinah invites a guest on to talk through the soundtrack of their life: the songs that have held them in moments of anguish, haunted them on the regular, and maybe just maybe even saved them.

And I started going to that with one of my best childhood friends. And that was the song of that time. And I was like, oh, this is making me feel some type of way. I've got to get on the dance floor. And that started my club obsession. At the ripe old age of 12. Yeah. I love dance hall music. I love it, love it, love it. Dance hall music also was more mainstream when we were growing up. It was really mainstream. It was top 40 on Z100 for anyone who lived in the tri-state area. […]
