A Scientist Walks Into A Bar


Episodes feature recordings of talks given at Science on Tap events held in Portland, OR, and Vancouver, WA.

Oct 6, 2020

Listen as we have a fun conversation about death with mortician and activist Caitlin Doughty about her book Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs? that is now out in paperback! We discuss why it's important to talk to kids about death, what she thinks about Halloween decorations, and the worst thing about her work (hint: it has nothing to do with dead people.)
