BENJAMIN LAW IS GOING TO DIE
Writer and broadcaster Benjamin Law is the brainchild behind a million projects that you love - The Family Law, Gaysia, the Quarterly Essay Moral Panic 101, Wellmania, and MTC's Torch The Place (to name but a few). He's also a regular writer for The Good Weekend, The Monthly, Frankie, The Guardian and AFR, as well as moonlighting as a documentary host, radio host, podcaster, and a literary scout for Hachette Australia.
In addition to his brilliant body of work, Benjamin is an activist and an ambassador for Plan International Australia, the Australian Literacy and Numeracy Foundation, Victorian Pride Centre, Bridge for Asylum Seekers and the Pinnacle Foundation.
As someone who regularly talks to prominent media personalities about their own mortality, Benjamin - you'll be unsurprised to know - has some very firm ideas about his own demise. In this episode, he discusses both the creative and personal legacy he hopes to leave behind, which details he wants to get right for his own Funeral, and which elements of that particular final service he honestly couldn't care less about.
