Life Matters - Full program podcast - A podcast by ABC listen

Have you ever wished you could be at your own funeral? There's no reason why you can't. More people are considering the 'living funeral', a celebration of life with the dying person in attendance.

We explore the latest research. And feminist writer Clementine Ford makes the case for abolishing marriage in her new book I Don't.
